Because they never got Assange.

If we were still trying to find the leaker I could kind of see what they were doing, but its seems like we got the actual leaker

hell get a good plea deal

They're trying to punish Assange for publishing evidence of wrongdoing

Why is trump on board with this?

because a court proceeding would expose classified information

I don't know about that, they'll want to make an example of him.

if they dont then hell plead not guilty

and then risk state secrets being exposed

which i hope will happen

cuz im 20 minutes from the courthouse

Tbh if he wasn't so notorious he'd probably be gitmo'd

and it would be hella interesting

@Beemann his a known leftist

Manning should still be locked up

Snowdens punishment is he has to be Putin's play thing

Left != socialist

He's the last person you want to celebrate

How so?

He's probably crazy now anyways

bit hyperbolic id celebrate him before clinton

So are Alex Jones and John McAfee and they're great

Naw, he was trash then and now

At least those two actually do useful things

least he doesn't have a mountain of skulls

You gonna defend a single point you make or just hop to the next one?

You know me better than that

Wikileaks is tremendously useful

I've always hated wikileaks

Tbqh he makes the best spy. The weird/crazy guy

wikileaks is apropaganda arm of the kremlin

Exactly

I wasn't aware that preference modified utility

It's just Russian foreign policy

its utility is to sew discord

and is remarkably effective

You don't think government overreach sews discord in and of itself?

Wikileaks has spilled Russian state secrets too.....they are an equal opportunity leaker...

It seems remarkably convenient to shunt every critic under a Russian umbrella

Smells like failed presidential candidate in here

When did wikileaks become propaganda for Russia?
