Happy Birthday, Daniel Ellsberg! Here's to the man who proved that sometimes spilling secrets can make history—and headlines. Your courage in releasing the Pentagon Papers back in 1971 showed us all how one analyst with a conscience (and access to photocopiers) could shake things up dramatically.Decades later, your legacy remains timelessly relevant—reminding everyone of transparency's importance and inspiring whistleblowers everywhere. May this birthday be filled with laughter louder than any scandalous headline you've ever caused; after all these years, you're still our favorite troublemaker-in-chief!
Cheers to you for another year of truth-telling adventures ahead—just maybe fewer classified documents involved this time around?
