“...These new charges are trying to prosecute #Assange for publishing that stolen, secret material which was obtained by somebody else. And that is a whole different kettle of fish then what he was initially charged with.”-Rachel Maddow-

The Espionage indictment of Assange for publishing is an extremely dangerous, frontal attack on the free press. Bad, bad, bad.

The Department of Justice just declared war––€”not on Wikileaks, but on journalism itself. This is no longer about Julian Assange: This case will decide the future of media. nytimes.com/2019/05/23/us/…
" It doesn’t matter that this is only happening because mainstream media realized that they might be next on the chopping block; it matters that it’s happening, period."

Say what you want about Julian Assange but remember this:Wikileaks is about 10 years old. In that time, they have doled out more damage to empire through their publishing than possibly any newspaper in its entire history. That's why the🇺🇸wants him in its prisons.
.@amnesty you are crazy?Do you remember the lies you spread & that led to the invasion of Iraq, Libya & Syria? Now do you also lie about Assange & Manning? Who pays you to lie?
