Assange is an anarchist/socialist and has praised some jihadi vermin, I think Hezbollah leader, as a “freedom fighter”. So JA is not angel.
I’m a fan of Wikileaks, and was relieved they phished John Podesta, inside the Hillary Campaign, who was also leading the operation. Podesta fell for it and Wiki got a trove of truth on HRC, as well as the Pizza code to the party.

Dershowitz says there’s “no difference between Wikileaks and the New York Times”.
It isn’t against the law, apparently, to publish private or even classified information. (Pentagon Papers)
I’m really hoping Chelsea Manning did the Hacking and Assange did the publishing. Assange may get set up for paying the whole bill, especially since Chelsea skated.
MANNING is free as a bird and now running around in a dress.
ASSANGE is at risk of the death penalty after already Seven years of solitary confinement, called “refuge”. (I forget what the official word is. )
