Episode 0091 - The State is Finally Going to Get Julian Assange - Part II
For decades Julian Assange has exposed the state for some of its most egregious violations of civil liberties and scandals against citizens, not just in this country but in countries all across the world. The courts in the United Kingdom have ruled that allowing Julian Assange to be extradited to the United States will not impact his physical and mental health, clearing the way for a federal trial against him for violating the Espionage Act of 1917. Julian Assange has "published" state secrets not unlike The Washington Post published the Pentagon Papers. The founder of WikiLeaks has run afoul of the U.S. Government and it appears as if it is only a matter of time before they slip the noose around his neck and make him pay. Join me today as we go back and look at a fascinating interview of Julian Assange by Democracy Now where he comments on their handling of sources, the body politic in America, Donald Trump, and much more.
