Turn him loose and give him the Medal of Freedom! Then arrest those who falsely accused him in order to cover their own crimes!

Well, it sure would be interesting if the White House and other agencies mentioned retained their phone records, and this series of calls turned up.

The transgender nitwittery is so engrained among the idiot PC they vapidly repeat it no matter who is involved.

Did I miss the trans angle in this article?

Past 5 years...

2 under Obozo and Transitioned to Trump undoing decades of devious inventions and “team building” by the Deep State

Do you not understand that all of this did not start under Obozo, but decades earlier

This is a herculean task Trump is undertaking and a few arrests alone will do little to unwind all of this. There are redundancies built in and another will simply take the place of the fallen comrade as they march toward the real goal

This is Global not just the United States, but we are the prize, the last bastion of freedom in the world and if we fall the rest have no chance

My family left Europe long ago, centuries in fact and came here to get away from Tyrrany and I will fight to keep it till my last breath, not fade and faint because the fight is on

I have made my choice

Do so for yourself, but do so wisely

“Julian Assange tried to contact Hillary Clinton and the White House when he realized that unredacted U.S. diplomatic cables given to WikiLeaks were about to be dumped on the internet, his lawyer told his London extradition hearing on Tuesday.”

He is guilty!

Who commuted Manning’s sentence?

He/She/it was sentenced to 35 years at the maximum-security U.S. Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth. On January 17, 2017, President Barack Obama commuted Manning's sentence to nearly seven years of confinement dating from her arrest on May 27, 2010.

Asssad is a “publisher” and for the most part leaders etc. with information ‘contacted him’ or his organization. They then would do an intensive research on the informatioon/documents etc. to confirm or not it’s reliabity....Assange then would decide or not to publish or release what he had been given.

Any ‘corrupt’ leadership here or Internationally wants Assange to remain in prison as they see him dangerous and a risk at exposing their corruption. He has no allegience to any country per say so was exposing corruption where it was found to be so.

There was some testimony alleging Assange paid Manning for the stolen info.

Adrian Lamo, the notorious computer hacker who turned in Chelsea Manning to the FBI and was arrested for hacking into The New York Times and Microsoft, has died in Kansas at age 37. *snip* Charley Davidson, a Wichita police officer told the media outlet there was “nothing suspicious about his death.” It was not immediately clear how Lamo died.

... when he realized that unredacted U.S. diplomatic cables given to WikiLeaks were about to be dumped on the internet...

And who was responsible for this dumping, Julian?

Assange isn’t interested in exposing corruption unless that exposure benefits his sponsors, whose corruption he does not delve deeply into if at all. Kind of like saying that communist self-criticism sessions employed against prisoners to obtain confessions is merely an interest in “exposing corruption.”

I would say nothing, if the families of those affected by Manning, pooled some finances, and Manning ends up in a Louisiana bayou, in summer, with no gear, and has to get out on foot.

Yeah, I think I heard that too... but no matter where Manning learned it from, he was still the one that obtained the documents and released them.

Anyone could have taught him how.

Manning should have been in front of a firing squad for causing deaths by his actions.
