A crucial witness who has been relied upon to build the deep state’s case against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is admitting that he has lied constantly to help the feds railroad the information liberator.
Sigurdur Ingi Thordarson reportedly told reporters at Grabien that he lied about Assange to get the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation off of his back so he could commit criminal acts with impunity.
Thordarson had allegedly embezzled funds from WikiLeaks after offering to sell merchandise for the group. He then reached out to the federal government hoping to become an informant in order to save his own skin.
Additionally, “according to a psychiatric assessment presented to the court Thordarson was diagnosed as a sociopath, incapable of remorse but still criminally culpable for his actions,” Stundin reported, and this was an individual who has been tasked with building the case against Assange for the feds.
Big League Politics reported on how former president Donald Trump refused to pardon WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange after being threatened by GOP leadership:
“President Donald Trump is not expected to pardon whistleblowers Edward Snowden and Julian Assange before leaving office tomorrow, with Senate Republicans holding impeachment over his head to stop him from striking back against the deep state.
The Mercury News has reported that “Trump is also not expected to pardon Edward Snowden or Julian Assange, whose roles in revealing US secrets infuriated official Washington.”
“While he had once entertained the idea, Trump decided against it because he did not want to anger Senate Republicans who will soon determine whether he’s convicted during his Senate trial. Multiple GOP lawmakers had sent messages through aides that they felt strongly about not granting clemency to Assange or Snowden,” they wrote.
President Trump will reportedly not pardon Assange and Snowden because he wants to placate the GOP swamp following the Jan.6 siege on the U.S. Capitol, which has caused many prominent Republicans to turn on the president and blame him for the violence that occurred.
“As he departs office, Trump has expressed real concern that Republicans could turn on him. A conviction in the Senate impeachment trial would limit his future political activities and strip him of some of the government perks of being an ex-president,” the Mercury News stated.
“Trump is less worried about being barred from running from office again, and more concerned with the optics of being convicted by the Senate, people familiar with the matter said,” the report continued…
President Trump will be leaving the White House with the deep state stronger than ever, having failed in every sense to restore accountability to the so-called intelligence community. So much for “trust the plan,” eh?“
Under the Biden regime, it is not likely that any of these new revelations could possibly help Assange. The land of the free is no more, and Assange’s crucifixion will send a message to all journalists that the 1st Amendment rights is no longer in effect.
FBI in up to their eyeballs.
President Trump, Assange and Snowden vs the Deep State.
I do not claim to have read the totality of claims against Assange, but are there not other claims that will stand the validity test if this guy is a bad actor?
So is this several months old? The content seems to read that way.
Trump should have pardoned Assange to just make the FBI cry.
bttt
They would have just come up with another ‘crime’ to justify their perfidy.............
In criminal cases where a key witness, essential to the prosecution, admits that they lied the case is poisoned and usually dismissed.
That will not happen with Assange.
He embarrassed a lot of very powerful people including one named Clinton.
I don’t view him as a hero nor do I view him as a villain. Julian was a real champion of many on the left when his targets were in Republican hands. They did not understand Julian because he targeted them when they were in power and that was his real mistake. To be “of the left” you can only damage one side.
What he did legally was no different (publish secrets) than the NYT or Compost did when the “target” was Trump (classified information leaked). That was okay with those who are in charge of such things when it served their interests (get Trump). Assange made the wrong enemies even if what he did was legally equivalent. For better or worse, it is hard now to find a better example of our real life double standard.
What? The DOJ lied again for the sake of a political and power narrative?
Say it ain’t so.
They will never admit it....................
The next deplorable leader will be someone far more unappealing to the Deep State, someone who literally has nothing to lose.
The pedo long ago admitted impersonating Assange in phone calls and other communications, and still the US wants Assange dead.

*** I do not claim to have read the totality of claims against Assange, but are there not other claims that will stand the validity test if this guy is a bad actor? ***
I was on Reddit when in real time the total fabrication of the set up against Assange by ToddandClare.com, a fake dating site for attempting to lure an eight year old for sex was blown to hell.
The accusers had office space right next to a f*I office in SF, IIRC. Their mail drop was a storage warehouse in Houston.
Said the Royal Bahamian Police were investigating. All a big lie.
*** Trump should have pardoned Assange to just make the FBI cry. ***
Why did Trump’s big ass donor, Sheldon Adelson have representatives at all the Assange hearings that have been held in London since Julian was arrested at the Ecuadorian Embassy.
Trump chose to do the wrong thing for whatever reason, and since Adelson croaked I guess I won’t ever know. I do know Adelson had a link to the Spanish guy employed by the CIA to spy on Assange, steal his baby’s diaper for DNA testing. That was a Pompeo thing, IIRC.
