Name him, ping him.
Thanks bitt. I don't and never have liked or trusted the bastard, but the only reason he's still being hounded is because he crossed Hitlery.
Or when the NYT published the same things. This is garbage.
I have a basic problem with this. Assange is not a US citizen, he did not do anything in the US, he did not hack anything. All he did was post what someone else gave him. Didn’t Supreme Court already decide a case like this, the Pentagon Papers? And that was a US citizen in the US. The US government may not like what he did, but I don’t think they have a case, this is wrong and waste of taxpayer money. Why not direct this effort to the Clinton’s instead?
Wonder what they’re thinkin now that the Qbler elf is back to baking cookies in his hollow tree? Or did he ever leave?

At least we now know the Mueller plan. Claim Russia stole Hillary’s emails and gave them to Wikileaks. Wikileaks coordinated with Trump through Roger Stone...a member of the Trump campaign.
All fiction, but this is what will be pushed soon. This will be the excuse for a democrat house to vote to impeach.
I think I’m gonna buy another sack of rice tomorrow.
Comments at article, impeachment possibilities haven’t dawned on the lefties yet.
His mandate and mission is to prove that Trump and Russia conspired to steal the presidency from its rightful owner, Hillary.
Perhaps his hail Mary pass is to nail Assange, and force/coerce him into "admitting" to conspiring with Russia on behalf of Trump to deprive Hillary of her rightful place in the Oval Office.
I don't think Assange has the balls to say no to such a plea arrangement.
He should be pardoned!
I think they have. And the Assange indictment is a step. The DNC and Pelosi know every but of this already. So they come in and act like they are not hot to impeach.
When the Mueller fake daisy chain of Russia, to Assange, to Stone, to Trump drops...then the Dems will solemnly explain that they didn’t expect this, but now they must impeach him. And coincidentally, it will be early next summer, 5 or 6 months before the presidential campaign begins.
Just watch.
46 years after the Pentagon Papers why are we still arguing these same cases over and over again?
So a foreign whistleblower who has stolen nothing from the USA is subject to prosecution for publishing sensitive information that American entities are not sure how they were stolen and were too incompetent to keep secret? I have serious questions concerning jurisdiction. Isn’t this what the NY Times and Washington Post do all of the time and get Pulitzer Prizes for?
Absolutely nothing is going to happen to Assange. Who he works for will step down hard on those making an issue of this.
Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia have long been investigating Assange and, in the Trump administration, had begun taking a second look at whether to charge members of the WikiLeaks organization for the 2010 leak of diplomatic cables and military documents that the anti-secrecy group published.

The WaPo, in its zeal to kill Trump, better hope the FBI doesn’t pursue a criminal case fagainst Wikileaks for publishing secret government info. That’s something newspapers do every single day and it’s the only way a whistleblower can expose corrupt government operations.
The WaPo could see its own reporters thrown in jail for publishing secret government info.
The concept of “rule of law” will remain meaningless until and unless the likes of Clintons, Obamas and Soros face serious charges for their actions. Julian Assange is more of a good guy than a bad guy in this complicated situation. His instincts were to shine a spotlight on wrongdoing, whether his methods prove to be “legal” or not seems irrelevant if the wrongdoing is a serious threat to national security.
This drama has been bubbling away on a back burner for about two years now. That may all change in the new year. May you live in interesting times indeed.
By the way, just wow on the “inadvertent inclusion” of this information in an unrelated case (oh really, a DC sex case is unrelated you say, well we will take that under advisement, perhaps study it more over pizza).
There’s an elite out there whose motto seems to be, “the little people don’t need to know,” or perhaps “screw the little people, and certainly their kids.”
Well guess what, the little people now have managed to get a friend into the White House. Maybe the little people are about to find out quite a bit.
Bet I wasn’t the only one here who was somewhat mystified by all the Q talk but I followed some links about this story and got the scoop on that one too.
These are dangerous games being played in murky waters. I don’t know if Qanon is for real or not, but it could easily be somebody inventing things that they believe an actual source might know or reveal, sort of a docudrama approach to semi-fiction. Thus it could be a mix of fact and fantasy.
The only question I have about the Assange business is, could a high level justice department office really screw up this badly, or is this their way of communicating something to their adversaries? I suspect the latter, it is really unlikely that the three or four people who would have read this document would all fail to notice the references to Assange.
“Wonder what they’re thinkin now that the Qbler elf is back to baking cookies in his hollow tree?
This is the interesting part.
There's no evidence that any charges have been filed against Assange... there's just this "typo" in some unrelated case filing.
Interesting. What case filing was this? Who was the clerk who typed and filed it? What office does he/she work out of? How was this typo discovered? How did the media hear about this typo?
Clues:
This "story" has been picked up by: WaPo, NYT, NY Post, the Week, etc. and blasted on social media as hot news. Twitter has it on its top trending list. Someone up high is pushing this story... it's not "organic".
My theory?
Mueller planted this... as part of his hail Mary pass. The Deep State has had Assange beat down ever since he pissed off Hillary (and Obama) with his 2016 leaks. Assange is at his breaking point now, and probably willing to do anything to get out from under Hillary's and Deep State's wrath.
The path forward is simple... Assange walks free in exchange for lying a bit... just say "Trump's team worked with Russia to steal this stuff and I published it". Poof... he says that, goes free... and Trump gets impeached and possibly imprisoned, and the left (Hillary and her gang) get their revenge.
Trump should pre-emptively pardon Assange for all and any crimes he has been charged with. This would forestall his statements from being used in any charges against him, while simultaneously shifting the media hounds away from the "blue wave/white house chaos/omg melania made a tweet" narratives they are pushing of late.
