julian assange might turn himself in for extradition if he was telling the truth
Ronin:
I know someone personally who joined the AF for counter-cyber division work and ended up not even getting to serve because the background check took a year longer than what was told to him (4-5 months).
Chelsea Manning or whatever they are calling themselves got played, but duno if letting them go proves a point politically or not.

It's common for presidents to pardon a bunch of guys on their last day of office.
Manning is probably a more complicated case, so he most likely needed a head start in order to do it.
SeventhSandwich:
If Obama pardons Snowden as well, it will be one of the most positive highlights of his presidency.
