Chelsea Manning Got De-Fellowed Again

Bradley Chelsea Manning served seven years in the supermax prison at Fort Leavenworth for turning over classified information to Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks.  His/her act of treason constitutes the largest breach of intel in American history. The remainder of his/her 35-year sentence was commuted by The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer in January of 2017.
On Wednesday, the military whistleblower had been among a group invited to speak at the Institute of Politics at Harvard’s Kennedy School including former White House press secretary Sean Spicer, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and Robby Mook, Granny Clinton's 2016 campaign manager.
Amid a torrent of blistering criticism for its decision, the school withdrew its designation of “fellow” for the sexually confused turncoat calling it a “mistake”.
The Dean of the school, Douglas Elemendorf, said in a statement the next day, “We invited Chelsea Manning to spend a day at the Kennedy School.  We did not intend to honor her in any way or to endorse any of her words or deeds.”
Mind you, the only reason for the reversal was the high-profile resignation of former CIA Acting Director Mike Morell and the last-minute cancellation of current CIA Director Mike Pompeo to speak at the school.
Addressing Morell’s decision to resign from his non-resident senior fellowship Pompeo, a Harvard graduate himself said, “You have traded a respected individual who served his country with dignity for one who served it with disgrace and who violated the warrior ethos she promised to uphold when she voluntarily chose to join the United States Army.”
