"With that being said, leakers are traitors and cowards, and we will find out who they are!" - POTUS

I would be worried about a fair trial in this type of political climate as well.

I mean, it's not the US has ever inappropriately applied the judiciary to falsely imprison a man before!

The act of fleeing made it harder for himself. Had he not fled overseas and really did attempt to follow proper whisleblower procedure he would most likely be a free man today.
