I don’t believe this for a nano-second. Assaunge would have accepted it that quick also.

He was never impeached, or “convicted in the House,” as you call it.

So the DNC emails contained classified information, and you are fine with their treason?

Rohrabacher may have been trying to broker some kind of deal and saying what would get him access to Assange.

I don't seriously think any president could pardon Assange in return for information like that, but Rohrabacher wants to feel important and get into the newspapers again and making a deal may have seemed like a good way to do that.

LOL. I never said anything about the DNC. I merely said I don’t trust someone who attacked my country. Do you speak English?

Doesn't make any sense at all.

Bet Guiliani spewed when he heard this...Rudy will take him down.

Point out anything I read incorrectly. I said I don't trust Assange. I never said anything about Russia collusion or the DNC.

Meanwhile you are supporting a man who stole the most massive cache of U.S. data ever, and got Americans killed. He used a transgender Army private who was a traitor to his country.

And by the way, you have no idea if Assange was working for the Russians and created the whole collusion story.

But you insist on defending and trusting an enemy of the United States.

Yes...And Bubba was “pardoned” 10 minutes before he left office on his final day.

FAKE NEWS... DNC wishful thinking to keep impeachment hoax alive.

Common are you really going to believe the liars in the Fake Stream News? All they do is lie and deceive.

There is no transcript from the court case confirming this.

When all else fails, go back to “Russia, Russia, Russia.”

Now there’s a winning strategy for sure! Go go, girl!

I don’t think anyone has pardoned themselves, but I am sure e thought about it. He wanted to have pardon Milken, but he left that for someone else.

This is poppycock:

“”Fitzgerald said a statement from another Assange lawyer, Jennifer Robinson, recounted “Mr. Rohrabacher going to see Mr. Assange and saying, on instructions from the president, he was offering a pardon or some other way out, if Mr. Assange ... said Russia had nothing to do with the DNC leaks.”“

LOL What were all your responses about? You attacked me for the sole "crime" of saying Assange is untrustworthy. I would call that supporting him, wouldn't you?

Basically you are angry at me and calling me for supporting the United States? That's what you define as seedy? Show me what else I did comrade.

I checked your history. You’re just a narcissistic troll who makes up excuses to get righteously indignant.

Carry on.

Good ol AP. Started going downhill in the 60’s when left wing groups helped create AP style sheets (back when “unborn baby” morphed into “fetus” in all AP reporting in order to please left wing groups who were given the right of edit/review before publishing() to cram left wing thought into the minds of an unsuspecting population. Now look what they’ve become. A total joke.
