WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange plans to plead guilty to a conspiracy charge this week as part of a plea deal with the U.S. Justice Department that will allow him to go free after spending five years in a British prison, according to court documents.
Assange was charged by criminal information — which typically signifies a plea deal — with conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense information, the court documents say. A letter from Justice Department official Matthew McKenzie to U.S. District Judge Ramona Manglona of the U.S. District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands said that Assange would appear in court at 9 a.m. local time on Wednesday (or, 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday) to plead guilty and said that DOJ expects Assange will return to Australia, his country of citizenship, after the proceedings.
Zerohedge has more.
Now do the WAPO and NYT and every other journalist organization who fronts information from government “leakers” for the deep state
And do the Generals who told their Communist Chinese counterparts they would tip them off if President Trump planned any military action against them. They should be in Federal stockade … for the rest of their lives for that action. It’s worse than insubordination… it’s traitorous espionage.
Something smells here. I need to research something, but my understanding is that Trump specifically addressed Assange in a speech about 3 or 4 weeks ago where he said he would seriously consider a full pardon on US federal charges.
The timing of Biden’s justice department ramrodding a plea deal seems suspect after letting things dangle for nearly a decade.
No coincidence
No accident
Ugh, Trump was a president for four years and somehow never got to it? Funny that.
Bullocks. The West is a pillar of righteousness, where the individual is honored for his struggles, honest labor, and courage.
And there is no way we are sliding toward ruin, not by a long shot !
(If you believe that, I feel sorry for you when you open your eyes and try and still your heart.)
You’d be amazed how much resolve can be found at the bottom.
We need to quit pretending.
Julien has served his purpose.
The process is the punishment.
And nowhere on earth is safe,except maybe Russia.
Now watch what happens to Snowden.
Whatever his motives,what he exposed is real and vile.
Our “Dear Leaders” are our enemies.
The 5 Eyes are conniving spies,blatantly doing each other dirty work.
Individual freedom is vanishing.
And an ugly autocratic feudal system is attempting to rise.
Naked Emperors every where.
Fat,ugly and petulant murders.
A brilliant yet terrifying summation
My spidey senses are tingling, it smells like a trap.
Fully expect him to die of ‘natural causes’ as soon as he’s out.
This is a blatant CIA/deep state play. No doubt about it. Assange will will soon have an “accident”. He was safer where he was.
“Well, they’re informants, so if they get killed, they’ve got it coming to them. They deserve it.” ~ Julian Assange
“1,300 people were eventually killed, and 350,000 were displaced. That was a result of our leak. ” ~ Julian Assange
Oh what a noble hero.
He deserves gallows.
What, did he not meet his quota?
