For consideration.......if released and extradited, once in America, the truth can come out and assange can be released of all bogus charges

He is probably going to be a dead hero soon, also. If he hasn’t made out his will, he better start writing.

We need to see how the Mueller Report treats Assange. Will Deep State extract a confession of Russian collusion from Assange possibly implicating members of the Trump campaign in exchange for immunity?

Or will Assange blow claims of Russian involvement in the DNC and Podesta hacks out of the water by proving that the material came from Seth Rich? This would be a serious blow to the credibility of the US Intel community and it would destroy completely the Dem narrative that the Russians hacked the DNC and Podesta.

Hard to overstate the importance of this arrest.

Someone needs to check flight tracker and see how long a DOJ aircraft has been in England.

Bogus charges? There is no doubt that Assange did serious damage to our national security by his release of millions of USG cables. Manning was charged and convicted of his part in this debacle. Obama commuted Manning’s sentence, but the conviction remains.

I feel strongly both ways:

He gave up secrets! Bad!

He exposed Hillary and the DemocRATS! Good!

IIRC, Steven Wasserman was “overseeing” the Seth Rich murder, too.

Assange did a lot of good by releasing state secrets.
And by having released state secrets he has earned the wrath of states.
Not inconsistent to appreciate what he did, and expect his incarceration.

"Interesting that after all this time he is arrested when Barr suggests investigations will finally begin on zero and the beast......"

You nailed it. Too much of a coincidence on the timing. This is what full panic mode looks like by the deep state.

Not surprised.

It was coming.

Rush will talk about it on his show later.

I suspect that Assange has a dead man’s switch set to dump incriminating evidence on many many more important people in all parts of the world.

I'm suspicious by nature and would take a good guess that those who have been wanting him in custody have been working feverishly to short circuit any such dead-man's switch before they take him.

If true, it would seem that Julian's arrest has proven that their efforts have been successful. We shall see.

Things are going to get interesting now. I am confident he has supporters with access to Scorched Earth data files.

Just waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Unless they performed a cavity search on Pam Anderson, they don't have all the data.
