To @POTUS and @TheJusticeDept: Stop the extradition of Assange. I am as indictable as he is on the exact same charges. I will plead "not guilty" on grounds of your blatantly unconstitutional use of the Espionage Act. Let's take this to the Supreme Court.

I like. Maybe then it will become public record that Assange did not hack a DOD server but a personal one kept by a certain person named Hillary........
