Chelsea Manning: Being Bankrupted On Her Birthday

Today, whistleblower, Chelsea Manning turns 32, in jail. She is being fined $1000 a day and will owe $440,000 by October 2020, for refusing to testify against Julian Assange, who published documents she leaked. @xychelsea
@xychelsea Punished for revealing evidence of US war crimes (Afghan War Diary & Iraqi War Logs)
#ChelseaManning was jailed 30July 2013
Her 35 yr sentence was commuted by President Obama in May 2010
She was released then re-jailed on 8March 2019 for refusing to testify against #JulianAssange
@xychelsea An Information Review Task Force by the Pentagon subsequently confirmed that they had uncovered no specific examples of anyone who had lost his or her life in reprisals that followed the publication of the disclosures on the internet
theguardian.com/world/2013/jul…
@xychelsea @GreenweaverArch founder of @Candles4Assange said, "Whether you believe #ChelseaManning & #JulianAssange are political prisoners, or criminals for revealing state secrets, the original crimes remain unaddressed..."
@xychelsea @GreenweaverArch "they've sacrificed their lives to reveal crimes against humanity & the only ones in jail are them.

We shall be waiting to see if the NZ gov's delayed revision of the #WhistleblowerAct is going to be strong enough to stop their gagging, smearing, bankrupting, jailing & torture"
@xychelsea @GreenweaverArch Manning’s fate is tied to that of political prisoner, Julian Assange, currently fighting US extradition
Like @DanielEllsberg who released the Pentagon Papers, thereby hastening the end of the Vietnam War as well as the Nixon admin, Assange is to be tried under the Espionage Act

D's in Congress have eagerly anticipated Obama appointee, Georgetown U alum's second IG report complaining that President Trump’s appointees believe there exists a #DeepState among the unelected career staffers that is determined to thwart the president’s agenda. #CoupCabal
2. State Department IG holdover's "urgent" briefing on the Hill is currently said to be devised to set new alarm narrative of "retaliation" against #DeepState Department D's. Cong Staffers are starting to exit the "classified briefing" w #Linick IG. #Anon
3. @AdamSchiff @RepCummings are trying to bully & intimidate @StateDept workers contacting them directly & telling them to not have lawyers (right out of McCabe handbook). @SecPompeo also confirms phone call. The D's are unhinged. #DeepState #PresidentialHarassment. #Linick #Q

Chelsea Manning is found in civil contempt by judge for second time. That means judge denied motion to quash grand jury subpoena to testify. She maintains nothing will convince her to testify before grand jury into WikiLeaks so she will likely be in jail for several months.
Additional financial penalty exists this time around for Chelsea Manning. First, she will be fined $500/day after 30 days in jail. Then after 60 days in jail she will be fined $1000/day. This is an escalation of punishment to force compliance.
The government knows Chelsea Manning has a spirit strong enough to endure several months in jail. They believe they can break her by sapping her of whatever funds she has for her legal defense and in her personal bank account.

Chelsea @xychelsea Manning has entered the United States Courthouse where a judge will decide whether to hold her in contempt for refusing to testify against Assange.

Reporter: "Is it possible that you aren't walking out those doors after this hearing?"

Chelsea: "Yes."
Ahead of the hearing, I asked Manning what she thinks of these hearings being conducted in secret (no press/public allowed in).

"I have a history of having to deal with secrecy and a lot of these sort of secret proceedings. They tend to favor the government," she tells me.
Here's @xychelsea's full Q&A with the abysmally small group of press that showed up. There was one NBC U crew, one anarchist with a camera, one guy I don't know, and me.
