The American people did know through their elected representative.  Are you arguing that the Government should have no classified information?  No Spies?  When Congress learned about the leak they wanted to know who leaked it, not the details of the program because they already knew.  She is not a "whistleblower."   We have "whistleblower" laws that recognize what is whistleblowing and what is felony crime of disclosing classified information.  If she wanted to just "whistleblow", she could have contacted her Democrat congressperson and arranged a classified briefing.  She used to be Special Assistant to Clinton so she should have known how to do this.  Instead she chose to "leak" it in an illegal way.  With  all the options she had available, she chose the one that would cause the most political damage to the administration.   One has to wonder why.   00:58, 24
