Sign the petition demanding her immediate release.

Hey all, long time no see! I hope we’re all still firmly committed to the principles of liberty and as such I come to you all with an opportunity to make a difference for someone very special to me.

As many of you probably know Chelsea Manning has been reimprisoned by the Trump Administration for refusing to comply with a subpoena and refusing to provide testimony in a case that threatens the very foundation of the first amendment and freedom of the press.

Chelsea was remanded to federal custody (without charge or trial) back in March and can be held a maximum of 18 months for her refusal to cooperate with this federal grand jury intent on prosecuting acts of journalism. If that wasn’t egregious enough, District Court Judge Anthony Trenga also imposed unprecedented steep fines, $1,000 per day that she refuses to cooperate. At the time of this writing those fines have already accumulated to ~$180,000.

How can you help? Great question! First I encourage you to sign and share the above petition. We are calling on Judge Trenga to end Chelsea’s ridiculously punitive incarceration.

Additionally I encourage you to write Chelsea. She loves to receive letters and words of support from supporters. You can find instructions on how to write her below.

And lastly I make an appeal for money. You can donate to her support network in a number of ways. The first option is to send money directly to her legal team via the below fundraiser.

Chelsea Manning Needs Legal Funds to Resist a Grand Jury Subpoena

That money will go to her legal expenses and court costs and fees, which you can imagine are exorbitant.

Alternatively I am operating a personal fundraiser to pay for her phone calls and commissary so that she can buy somewhat nutritional food while in jail and so that she can speak on the phone with her close friends and allies. You can find instructions for that fundraiser below, but the tl;dr is to Venmo me at @anarchakelly or ca$h app at $anarchakelly.
