Meh. I'm not so sure.

Nowhere have I read or heard that he actually asked for Russian citizenship.
But it would be a great propaganda stunt for the Kremlin to announce that. And what's he gonna do? Protest? That seems to be quite unhealthy, there, these days.

Of course, I could be wrong. Still won't change anything.

There are a lot of whistleblowers... Snowden is not one of them. At no point did he reach out to anyone in Congress. The only "leaks" you hear about, are the ones that are represented to affect you. All the other leaks have directly affected people's lives, negatively. There is literally nothing about what that punk kid did was honorable.

I'll put it this way, there is a very good reason why three presidents now have declined to pardon him.
