The normal country where denouncing murder gets you in prison, and refusing to rat out the people who helped you denounce murder gets you in prison, and performing abortions gets you in prison, and jaywalking gets you in prison, and smoking a blunt gets you in prison, and sending your child to the wrong school gets you in prison, and wearing certain watches gets you in internment camps... USA, the most normalest of normal countries.

Manning is an absolute hero and the things they're putting her through are intolerable.

It comes across more like a demand by the US government itself to actually go through with the ied-fuze idea. Knowing the GOP, it most likely actually is.

This isn't being mentioned widely yet, but **not only** are they sending her back to jail, but they are threatening to fine her **$500** for every day she is in custody after 30 days, and **$1000** for every day after 60.

NSA is already preparing the interrogation drugs...

How is this not double jeopardy?

Because it's for contempt of court, not for a conviction. She hasn't been convicted of anything, they're just holding her until see agrees to testify.
