Fake news.

I hope this is all an act and J. A. will be under protective custody. Since all on the Left have nothing but ill comments for him, I suspect it is an act.

That explains why trump was noncommittal about his arrest. Didn’t really have much to say, which isn’t like him!

Don't know if it's true or not but I heard just today that Assange was smearing feces on the walls while at the embassy.

Given the way he looked while being dragged out it seems to me that that might be the truth.

If it can be shown that the hacking of Defense Department computers resulted in the death of one American soldier, then a beating is the least of his worries once he is incarcerated.

Read the article. No feces smeared walls were found when the press went in to see where he was staying.

It’s going to be up to the government to prove their allegation the he conspired in advance to steal documents in the Manning case. Otherwise he didn’t do anything wapo and the nyt don’t do all the time.

Assange knows he did not get the DNC emails from the Russians.
I hope he lives long enough to tell us who did.

They’re just trying to drum up support for blocking extradition on the grounds that he’ll be subjected to torture.

They’re just saying that so they can keep his Cleaning Deposit.

He is being charged by the Justice Department of conspiring with Chelsea Manning to hack into a classified U.S. government computer.

He still has his dead man’s switch. Yes he was hustled out of the embassy, but he was carrying a book. also, all of those bodies we’re in a “cover for sniper position” Also guessing he is wearing a VIP bullet proof vest.
