Chelsea Manning’s attorney blasts ACLU’s decision to defend Milo Yiannopoulos — Most damning is that Vogue falsely praises Chelsea Manning for leaking "the so-called Collateral Murder video, showing a U.S. helicopter killing a group of Baghdad pedestrians that included children and press."

An ACLU attorney who represented Chelsea Manning is blasting the organization’s decision to defend conservative provocateur Milo Yiannopoulous in a lawsuit against Washington D.C.’s public transit agency.

The American Civil Liberties Union on Wednesday announced they were suing the Washington Metro Area Transit Authority over its refusal to display ads promoting Milo Yiannopoulos’ book.
