Glenn Greenwald To U.S.: I’m Coming Home. What Are You Going To Do About It?

When asked by David Gregory on Meet the Press if he could face criminal charges for “aiding and abetting” Edward Snowden, the NSA leaker, Greenwald was aghast that a journalist would ask that question. Now, Greenwald says he may come back to the states, saying “Just the f*cking principle is enough.”

Greenwald has been living in Rio de Janeiro with his partner David Miranda for years, and has not been in the United States for a while, because he has been very worried about all the heated rhetoric being used about him and his role in reporting on NSA surveillance programs. Greenwald even said he tried to get assurances from the government months prior that nothing would happen to him if he returned, and he received no such assurance.

And now he plans on returning to the U.S. at some point soon, saying, “I’m going to go back to the U.S. for many reasons, but just the f*cking principle is enough… On principle I’m going to force the issue.”
