Is this an example of double standards?

Original Question

From here:




If the kid wanted classified documents, he could have offered to clean out Biden’s garage. They totally covered up Biden’s classified document scandal, and Hillary Clinton got away with storing and transmitting classified emails on her home computer, but this little ANG kid is going away for a long stretch in Leavenworth.


 



Off course she ignores the differences in those cases with Trump.


 



So, this ‘anti-war’ puke joins the military, which has a primary mission of breaking things and killing people. And he’s anti-Christian.



I hear a lot of bitching about “giving a young 21 year old a clearance”. What civilians don’t understand is that you are required to get the access and clearance level IAW your need to know and job position, regardless of your age.



 


First off the source she uses explicitly says:



One member of the original channel told the New York Times the leaker “was a Christian, anti-war, just wanted to inform some of his friends about what’s going on,”


 



Not only can't she read...



Now, what are they going to do about the intel that proves just how fucked up things are in Ukraine and that the $100 billion that Biden gave to Zelensky went somewhere else instead of weapons and equipment.
By the way, did they find out who leaked the SCOTUS Roe v Wade document yet?



And from that link:



He plainly doesn’t want to discuss what the docs seem to reveal.
Like info on the preparation of Ukrainian brigades in advance of an expected offensive, and on tanks, artillery, equipment and supply lines. And word that the war-torn nation’s air defenses will be exhausted by next month.



I point out that this is a double standard because she said years ago against Chelsa Manning:



Manning, the traitor and dysfunctional tranny whose sentence was commuted by B. Hussein Obama, has been arrested for scoffing at a grand jury subpoena.
It’s a HE. I don’t care how much lipstick or dresses he puts on, he’s still got a Y chromosome and a Johnson. Lock his traitorous ass up and throw away the key.
Some of the information he leaked ended up in Osama Bin Laden’s possession. Manning couldn’t have aided Bin Laden any more if he had walked up to the muzzie pig and handed over the documents in person.



Off course the fact is that the information didn't help Bin Laden in the slightest...but now that it's for a cause she hates, she loves trators...



The “whistleblower” moniker went along with  a classified video  that Manning sent to Wikileaks which purported to show U.S. Soldiers killing “innocent” Iraqis. Wikileaks forgot to mention (or show) that the Army unit was engaged in combat at the time, and taking fire from an armed enemy. One was carrying a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.  Another was carrying an AK-47 assault rifle.  Incidentally, two of those individuals killed were Reuters photographers who were embedded with the terrorists.  Aw….Too fucking bad.



Off course her source on this is a known liar....who defends killing children...

I will just address the first rant (there is way too much here)... No, I don't think this is a good example of double standard . This is because there are too many differences in the situations to create a "standard."  This is just typical extreme political rhetoric with the goal of "owning" the other side rather than having a serious, mature discussion about the core issues with the goal of finding solutions.
