ASSANGE AND SNOWDEN

The world and the USA are endlessly distracted, and these two men, world patriots, are both in deep trouble because of the world power game and the ruthless, self serving nature of the ruling classes of the world, who are people who live in a world of expediency, and their national self interests, as these people see them.

Snowden told the world that the CIA, who he worked for, were spying on everyone. James Clapper, a CIA official, and now media pundit, lied to Congress, said it was a bogus wire, no consequences. Snowden is in exile in Russia, of all places, an uncomfortable place to be, charged with the Espionage Act.

Assange spoke truth to power as a publisher, and is in a British dungeon. He is still due to be extradited here by the Biden Administration, the Espionage Act, for a 170 year sentence, disclosing state secrets, the Iraq/Afghan war, that he got from Chelsea Manning.

Obama was hesitant with Assange, the freedom of the Press issue. Trump is on record calling for the death penalty for both Assange and Snowden for violating the Espionage Act of 1917.

Trump is a special case, twisting in the wind, he has resorted to threats and intimidation and insurrection, to deal with his present troubles, his coup, and the ongoing insurrection, and Merrick Garland’s investigations, including his treasure trove of secret documents found at Mara Lago in August.

Trump wanted Assange and Snowden executed for crimes related to the same Espionage Act the Biden Administration has filed charges about to get the search warrant leading to the state secrets he had stashed, and refused to return to the National Archives.
