We have all been praising Rachel Maddow's Ultra and many of us

wondered how long before someone made a movie about it. Not long it seems, Spielberg has obtained the movie rights. I am looking forward to this movie.

Edward Snowden gets Russian passport

snip

"Kucherena said on Friday that Snowden was “happy” and that Russian citizenship would prevent him from being extradited.

“He of course is happy and thankful to the Russian Federation for his citizenship – he’s now a fully fledged citizen of Russia,” Kucherena said. “And most importantly, under the Russian constitution, he cannot be given up to a foreign state.”
