As article states “Assange still has legal avenues of appeal” which I expect he’ll take advantage of.

he message this is dending to all publishers and journalists is —Expose the truth and you’ll be made to regret it.

Manning is currently dating the singer Grimes who is the mother of two children by Elon Musk.

It’s a small world after all.

I’m really, really surprised that Assange is still alive.

Assange got US soldiers in trouble for putting underwear on the head of a muslim, like the scene from Weird Science, the world was ‘outraged’. This guy is a faggot and can die by starvation for all I care.

Trump should have pardoned him.

Agreed. He also should have fired Fauci, not selected Pence as VP, never hired Jeff Sessions, John Kelly, John Bolton etc etc

Another mistake Trump made. He should have pardoned Assange.

Since espionage carries the potential of the death penalty, normally the UK and other European nations who do not have the death penalty will refuse to extradite, unless they obtain a promise that the death penalty will not be sought.

If they do not make that standard demand, then we will now their strings are being pulled.

They’re not “officially” going after him for the obtaining or sharing of the data.

The charges stem from the government allegation that Assange colluded with his source on how to bypass US government security measures and hack our systems. That’s what they will be trying to prove, not that he received or shared the data afterwards.

Yep, it would have been the moral thing to do. Trump lost my support over Assange, and Syria.

“Assange got US soldiers in trouble for putting underwear on the head of a muslim...”

Oh I see, so when you do something wrong and get exposed for it, it’s the fault of the person who exposed you, not your fault for actually doing something wrong. Got it.

Wrong. It had nothing to do with Abu Ghraib.

And even if they don't get the chance -- because their Partisan Media Shills will spin it in accordance with DNC talking points.

To Julian Assange, hurting the United States was the only goal. His motives were evil and showed no discretion towards soldiers in harms way. And I’d hardly call underwear on the head a crime against humanity. But he knew with Bush in office, his leftist media cohorts would hyperventilate over it and use it to beat the drums about how terrible our soldiers were.

Assange is an evil coward, always has been.

“To Julian Assange, hurting the United States was the only goal. His motives were evil and showed no discretion towards soldiers in harms way.”

Maybe. Yet, if we weren’t actually doing anything wrong, then he would have nothing to expose us for.

“And I’d hardly call underwear on the head a crime against humanity.”

If it wasn’t wrong, then why care if he exposed it? The fact that you seem to think that this exposure hurt our troops means it must have been wrong in some way. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. Either the troops did something they should not have done, in which case the responsibility for the repercussions is theirs, or they did nothing wrong, in which case Assange couldn’t have caused us any harm by exposing it. So which is it?

“Trump should have pardoned him.”

Has Assange been tried and convicted in absentia?

If not, there is no sentence to pardon him from.

That’s true. But we know the purpose of bringing him here is to convict him of phony charges and punish him for costing Hillary the election.
