“Appearing on CNN with host Piers Morgan on Monday, former Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) said that NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden has embarked on ‘a heroic effort’ in telling the world about the U.S. government’s spying capabilities, and warned that defending this type of unilateral, unchecked power means embracing ‘dictatorship’ moving forward. ‘For somebody to tell the American people the truth is a heroic effort, and he knows that it’s very risky,’ he continued. ‘He knows he’s committing civil disobedience, and he knows that he could get punished.’ Paul went on to say he believes there should be talk of penalties for officials who ‘destroy the Constitution.'”
