For what? The Swedish charges against him were dropped a long time ago. Assange will probably be extradited to the USA for being a journalist and publishing things that the USA deep state would rather he didn't.

Per usual, Signym understood nothing, but couldn't help but have a misinformed opinion:
The single charge, conspiracy to commit computer intrusion, was filed in March 2018, and stems from what prosecutors said was Assange's agreement to break a password to a classified United States government computer. It carries a penalty of up to five years in prison and is significant in that it is not an espionage charge, a detail that will come as a relief to press freedom advocates.

In a sovereign decision Ecuador withdrew the asylum status to Julian Assange after his repeated violations to international conventions and daily-life protocols. "The discourteous and aggressive behavior of Mr. Julian Assange, the hostile and threatening declarations of his allied organization, against Ecuador, and especially the transgression of international treaties" meant the situation is "unsustainable and no longer viable," Moreno said in a video message posted Thursday on Twitter. https://twitter.com/Lenin/status/1116271659512684544

What was that about a sealed indictment, again?

Considering how badly #Russiagate is going (do they know something ahead of time about the Mueller report that we don't know, like perhaps it's a big fat dud?), and how badly #Brexit is going - well, they needed some distracting happy news for the war mongers.
You know those goalposts that were so important? QUICK!! LOOK OVER THERE INSTEAD!!
And shazaam! Two country's PR nightmares --- solved! At the same time!

Quote:The Federal Court system handles thousands of cases simultaneously. Assange and Trump would be two. There is capacity to handle two more cases. And there is plenty of time for a second Brexit referendum. It was "astonishing" that 27 European countries could agree a "lot more readily" than UK politicians. If the UK politicians can't get their act together and get to an agreement the only other option is to go back to the people and have a second referendum to see whether people still feel the same way now that they did almost three years ago and resolve it that way.

Two Russian hackers are suspected of meddling in the attempt to destabilize the government and their information will be delivered to the Office of the Attorney General of Ecuador, Romi said. Julian Assange's asylum was revoked because there was sufficient evidence that he was meddling in Ecuador's internal affairs in an effort to destabilize the government. During former President Correa's government and while Patiño was chancellor, "they tolerated things like Assange putting feces on the embassy walls and other behaviors far from the minimum respect that a guest can have," said Romo.

But when Obama waged war on whistle-blowers it was ok?
Let me hear you raise just one objection to Obama's heinous actions. Just one.
