I join all defenders of freedom of the press in demanding that the Biden administration drop the unconstitutional indictment of Julian Assange and accept--not appeal--the decision of the British judge not to extradite him. nytimes.com/2021/02/08/us/po…

No Russian or any State gave @wikileaks the DNC emails- besides that, thank you NYT for saving your own ass from being snatched up by foreign governments for reporting or publishing.

Obviously, #Assange should be released and the petty vendetta brought by the US must end. But the damage to press freedom is already done through Judge Baraitser's shameful capitulation to US claims. Her rulings need to be appealed and overturned. #FreeAssange

If Julian Assange is ever extradited to America, it will be like an admission the PM has personally been compromised by one of these groups that goes about collecting compromat on PMs. If he doesn't extradite, he still has some decency left.

Basically you undermine all the other, more important things you do with this ill conceived venture that is doomed to fail.

He's a hacker not the press.
