Public whistleblowing is necessary to expose classified, nefarious activities and technologies that the government hides from its citizens.

“I basically started letting them know on the things that I was figuring out through you know communicating with my crew through learning about things that were presented to me when I was there that I've done more research on and just you know connecting the dots and and trying to figure stuff out”

He believes it is his duty to publicly expose information about his experience to prevent the government from abusing its power and to honor his oath.

“I'm damn tired of doing nothing you know I can take losing my career I'm fine with that I didn't think I was going to do it forever I'm fine with losing material possessions but one thing I will not stand for to watch people in this country just hand their freedoms over”

It is necessary for individuals to speak up when major media institutions like the BBC engage in editorial manipulation and falsehoods.

“I'm not here to, you know, to bomb the BBC and prevent them. I would like them to get their act in order, but how long can they ask people for money in this plural pluralistic media landscape that you guys are getting?”

Exposing the corrupt acts within the prison system was a moral necessity to protect human lives, regardless of the personal cost.

“I said, "I have to stop it." So, I interview with the FBI for 6 hours. They realize this is going to be huge, right? And uh after we're done, the sun's going down, they go, "We're going to bring you in front of a federal grand jury in a couple days to get your testimony on record to to to cement it.”

Candace Owens argues that leaking information is a valid and necessary act to expose those who are lying to the public regarding the circumstances surrounding Charlie Kirk's death.

“None of this would be weird if Josh Hammer came out and was like, "Dang, we were, you know, he was pretty fired up before. I feel so bad. That was our last conversation. They were honest about what happened in the Hamptons. It happens. You get into arguments with people.”

Whistleblowers who expose government misconduct should not have their pensions confiscated as punishment for their actions.

“I said, "These Obama people confiscated my pension. 20 years of proud government service."”

Whistleblowing serves as a vital tool for the public to uncover the actions of powerful institutions, though it carries immense personal risk for the leakers.

“I think when there was a spade of whistleblowers uh and you know I think Julian Assange is probably one of the most visionary people of the last 50 years in terms of his understanding before anyone else's that in the age of the internet and with digit with everything being maintained in a digitalize”

Whistleblowers perform a great service for democracy by disclosing government secrets and should be encouraged rather than punished.

“I think we should encourage whistleblowers whistleblowers are the heroes of democracy they're not villains”

Whistleblowers who expose practices like those at Texas Children’s Hospital are performing a brave service to the public and should be protected.

“on these facts there's no question that Ethan Haim is a whistleblower by any definition he chose to risk his career which was just beginning to provide information that his employer might be systematically violating the law and not just any law but a law designed to protect children”
