Streamed live on Apr 27, 2017: Wikileaks Founder and Editor-in-Chief Julian Assange joins the Liberty Report to discuss the latest push by the Trump Administration to bring charges against him and his organization for publishing US Government documents. How will they get around the First Amendment and the Espionage Act? The US government and the mainstream media -- some of which gladly publish Wikileaks documents -- are pushing to demonize Assange in the court of public opinion. Wikileaks is registered as a 501(c)3 organization in the US. Find out more about the organization and how you can help: https://wikileaks.org/

Another Trump flip flop - how many is that now? You are a disgusting pig.
Hmmm….lst’s see. Since his November election, Trump has taken 26 new stances, including 19 during his first 100 days as president, on 12 different issues. Yea, his shifting agenda has established him as one of the most unpredictable American leaders in modern history. But then, why pay attention and count those when what matters most are the many reasons why Donald Trump will make the best president ever. Want to see 25 of those reasons? Yep, I thought you would. Then all you have to do is click here to become enlightened.
These guys are more 'transparent' than they know. If Assange's agenda is to use 'transparency' to combat his perceived 'asymmetry in power', that would explain why he always seems to be attacking the US or the west in general. It is not about justice or human rights or who is right or wrong in any given conflict. It is about what he perceives to be a power imbalance in the world that is, in and or itself, inherently wrong no matter how that power is used. He is trying to ally himself with the American Libertarian movement not because he particularly likes them or even shares their political beliefs ( and you can see this in the way he hedges around their political beliefs without actually endorsing them). He is trying to ally with them because they tend to be isolationist in terms of foreign policy and he sees this as a way to address the 'asymmetry of power' in the world. Assange argues the he is advocating the divulging of truthful information as a way of arriving at correct outcomes or political decisions and that there is no evidence that anyone has ever come to harm because of what he has released. Whether the full release of information supplied to him by Manning resulted in someone getting killed or not, and it would be difficult in a court of law to prove that it had, it cannot be disputed that to release the name of someone who cooperated with American troops in Afghanistan 1) in no way contributed to the pool of 'truthful' information in the world and 2) inevitably would have to be seen as putting those people's lives in danger. No matter what his excuse, it was simply attacking individuals who had cooperated with Americans. Period. There was no justification for the release of such information and no reason to do it other than to harm them and the only effect of the release of information of such a confidential nature on an individual would be to dissuade them from cooperating with Americans in the future. Julian Assange and Ron Paul attempting to put a 'smiley face' upon what was an indisputably despicable act. And last time I checked, Hezbollah was no more transparent or concerned with civil rights than is Bahrain. An opinion by Badgerite.
Not a fan of Gatlin eh ? Si vis pacem, para bellum Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. Never Pick A Fight With An Old Man He Will Just Shoot You He Can't Afford To Get Hurt I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within." -- General Douglas MacArthur
Hmmm….lst’s see. Since his November election, Trump has taken 26 new stances, including 19 during his first 100 days as president OK, got it - Flip-flopping is now called "taking new stances" when "Our Guy" does it. That sounds like it comes from the Orwellian Ministry of Truth, you know - the guys who came up with "War is Peace". "Ignorance is Strength" and "Freedom is Slavery". doubleplussgood comrade, you have mastered the art of Newspeak. An extra ration of chocolate for you. You are even more of a hypocritical weasel than your boy Trump.
I'm guessing the tRump quotes irritate our little buddy What's a fan boy to do? Fascinating, this romp with the tRump. If it wasn't so sad it would be hilarious. Meanwhile, WW3 is discussed on CNN, FOX, Etc and tRump's words about putting America first and staying out of foreign interventions are gone with the wind. A sad time indeed for the decaying US Empire. By the way, ever listen to Mike Rivero from http://WhatReallyHappened.com? He was a Trump supporter Big Time until the Dumpster dropped 50 + whatever bombs on Syria and now he's disowned the stinking old hypocrite and says he regretted his endorsement. Hats off to people that put policy over personality.

Gilligan oops I mean Gatlin no end, because he wants to slime Wikileaks badly (his post #5 is weak sauce, and he's hiding behind "Badgerite") but if he does so in this thread he will be contradicting his new hero - a hero that can do no wrong.
