Billie Winner-Davis, Reality Winner's mother, told Business Insider on Tuesday that President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, is attempting legal representation to aid the former Air Force language analyst contractor and Kingsville native Reality Winner with her case.
Winner pleaded guilty in 2018 to leaking classified National Security Agency information on Russia's alleged efforts to interfere with the 2016 election. She was found guilty of violating the U.S. Espionage Act and sentenced to five years in prison at the Federal Medical Center-Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas.
In 2016 following her separation from six years of active duty, Winner was hired by Pluribus International Corporation under an NSA contract to work out of Fort Gordon, Georgia.
According to ABC News, Winner printed a classified report detailing how Russian hackers allegedly “executed cyber espionage operations” on local election systems and mailed the documents to The Intercept.
She was arrested on June 3, 2017.
Amazing! Thank you. My daughter Reality Leigh Winner is yet another victim of this admin. Doing hard time for bringing the truth to light. #FreeRealityWinnerhttps://t.co/wU0sg3LeRs
Michael Cohen, who pleaded guilty to campaign violations and tax fraud in 2018, began serving his sentence in May 2019 at the federal penitentiary in Otisville, New York.
He has been under house arrest since July over coronavirus concerns.
Military.com stated that Reality’s mother sent a Twitter message that said “Cohen has asked another attorney to look at the case and for opportunities to help.”

Firefox 3 downloads smashes 5 million in 14 Hours
June 18, 2008
In what has now become a tradition, the IE team sent a “Congratulations on Shipping!” cake to the Mozilla Foundation headquarters for shipping Mozilla Firefox 3.0.
The Download of Mozilla's Firefox 3 web browser have already passed the five million mark, approximately halfway through its 24-hour world record attempt period.
Incredible as it sounds, Approximately 14 hours after its release, Firefox 3 passed the five million download mark.
The biggest changes in Firefox 3 are under the hood. Mozilla developers plugged memory holes that were causing earlier versions of Firefox to use more and more memory over time, until the browser slowed down the entire system and crashed it entirely.
Those problems have pretty much been eliminated with Firefox 3.
New features include "The Library".
The Library also lets you create "smart bookmark folders," similar to "smart playlists" in iTunes. You can save searches, and the results look like standard bookmark folders. Any future pages you bookmark that fit the search criteria will automatically be added to the smart bookmark folder. Firefox 3 gives you three smart bookmarks to get you started: Most visited, recently bookmarked, and recent tags; you can make your own, too.
The blog CyberNetNews has instructions on how to create a Smart Bookmark by using Firefox 3's built-in search parameters. It's a little tricky, beyond the reach of average users, but programmers should find it easy.
The Library is a huge step forward for Firefox but it's still got a long way to go. The interface to the bookmarks manager is cluttered and confusing.
For example, the first time you save a search, it's difficult to figure out where the saved search will turn up (answer: it shows up as a smart folder, on the bottom of the folder pane).
Firefox 3 will get its glory in todays news, but in the back of my mind, I wonder ....
When will the 1st bug appear, and what will it be ?
But for now, download and install a copy of Firefox 3. It is much better than IE (Internet Explorer) and faster as well. I'll give it a whirl on my test computer here, and post some more information on this later on in the week.

"(Biden’s) own chief of staff, Ron Klain, would say last year that it was pure luck, that they did ‘everything possible wrong’ (with H1N1). And we learned from that."
"There are estimates that by the end of the term of this administration, they will have lost more jobs than almost any other presidential administration."
That Rose Garden event — there's been a great deal of speculation about it — my wife Karen and I were there and honored to be there. Many of the people who were at that event, Susan, were actually tested for coronavirus, and it was an outdoor event, which all of our scientists r...
