Manning Files To Run For Senate

Washington Times-

 Chelsea Manning will run for the U.S. Senate in Maryland.

The transgender former Army officer who was convicted of leaking classified documents filed her statement of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday.

The Washington Post reported Saturday that Manning will challenge Democrat Ben Cardin. He has served two terms and is an overwhelming favorite to win.

The 30-year-old Manning listed a North Bethesda address in *her FEC filing. She is running as a Democrat.

 Manning was convicted of leaking classified information and spent more than six years behind bars.

Known as Bradley Manning at the time of *her 2010 arrest, Manning came out as transgender after being sentenced. President Barack Obama granted clemency to Manning before leaving office.

    Bleech. What a weirdo.

  2. it was given ‘clemency’ by the Barry … not quite the same as a ‘pardon’ or ‘expungement’ …. so, I’m thinking it still has a criminal record

    … can it run? …. is Alcee Hastings a Congresscritter?

  3. Yes, a felon can run for senate. That sure explains a lot, doesn’t it? So, clowns, liars, felons, traitors, thieves, embezzlers, land grabbers, womanizers, sex addicts, etc.: DAMN, each of those words brought at least one current congressional member to mind. No wonder congress is so messed up and DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN.
