    Given the recent SCOTUS ruling, I’m wondering how many state supreme courts will find a way to extend similar protections to governors. Could see whistle blowers like this imprisoned or worse for “security reasons” or some such nonsense.

    Supposedly this is about defamation, and not the actual article. Which seems like a big fuckin’ stretch.

      Two completely different court systems. Also she’s actually a whistleblower. Equating her with a spy harms our attempts to protect whistleblowers.
