I don't care about locking Assange up nearly as much as sending Tranny Manning back to prison where he/she belongs for the crime of treason.

When the crimes committed by the military of the US empire are being suppressed by our own gov, drastic action is warranted. There should be no mistake that the political motivation of the US gov in wanting to avoid accountability is very real, and should not be swept under the rug.

But...but...what about the High Crimes committed in plain sight by Brennan, Clapper, the Feeb/CIA Deep State coup playahs -- not to mention Hitlery and Zero etal and *their* respective TREASON??

A point all too obvious. Some people want to be patriotic to the American gov when it comes to prosecuting Manning and Assange, but when it comes to these criminals, it's no longer a patriotic cause but a political one. Those who break the law to expose high crimes by the US gov those in it are given no quarter.

Case in point, Clapper was exposed as lying to Congress by Snowden's releases, and was never prosecuted for it. Not no much as a hearing.

President Trump has a YUUUGE staff of recycled bushbot neocons from both dubya and poppy Bush, thinking up evil plots.

It's some sort of coup ploy, to get him to hire America's worst aholes! That's what Lib tells us anyway.

Exactamundo. Spot on observations.

"Patriotism" or "safe-guarding US security" is not ANY case that can honestly be made against Assange. His is simply a Political Target and Prisoner. Because he is...a Whistle-Blower.

(btw, personally, I'm more inclined to consider the Assange and Snowden cases far more uniquely similar in the expressed category of true "WHISTLE-BLOWER" than Manning, who I'd categorize as a patsy.)

We are now compelled to ask:

If "law" is enacted behind closed doors in the bowels of DC dungeons that indemnifies the fox's presence and dining arrangements in the hen-house, does it make that law legitimate or righteous?

THAT is now the way our PTB have set up the game.

By criminalizing those Whistle Blowers who expose the harm and imminent plans to do harm to We The People, shouldn't they indeed be given quarter?

Moreover, any so-called "law" that ostensibly shields the "untouchables" and their clear criminality should be considered invalid; Such "shielding laws" are clear violations of the US Constitution, Bill of Rights, and oaths of respective Office.

We either serve Man or we serve the Truth. Can't do both.

Beyond disturbing revelation and observation.

Why isn't there any hearing? (rhetorically speaking for just this single conceded High Crime)...Yet...these same people want to send a couple of Hollywood B-Listers up the river in a "Tuition-Bribery Scandal".

Btw -- What again WAS Assange's primary "crime"? What is the "Official" change? Wasn't Assange's primary "crime" in publicly exposing someone's else's hack of Hitlery, her cabal of DC psychopaths, and associative evil swamp creatures (along with their respective shocking & bizarre proclivities?)

The prosecutions of Snowden and especially now Assange are nothing but politically motivated lynchings and warnings to ALL potential Whistle Blowers who expose nasty, evil, corrupt govts and their insidious plans. This circus is an absolute disgrace. NOTHING they say can be trusted at face value.

Meanwhile, the US Constitution is shredded over and over. (As the Media applauds and neither Party demands REAL Justice and REAL enforcement of the USCON.)

What we DO know:

1) There remains "honor among thieves."

2) People by their own free will continue to cheer-lead and worship the elected reps/Molochs at the DC Blood Altar. AND...CALL IT "PATRIOTISM."

3) "Justice" is scoffed and snickered at by Statists.

He got rid of the cat long ago.

Not according to various reports.

DailyBeast: Why Ecuador finally got sick of Julian Assange, 4/11/19

Assange was allowed back online in late 2018, but only after agreeing not to “carry out activities that could be considered political interference in the internal affairs of other states.” At the same time, Ecuador imposed a new and detailed set of rules on its fugitive guest, banning unannounced visitors, and requiring Assange to pay his own medical bills, clean up after himself in the bathroom and tend to the “well-being, food, cleanliness, and proper care” of his cat.

Assange bristled at the restrictions and took Ecuador’s foreign ministry to court. When he lost, he filed a complaint with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, which rejected it.

What happened next was perhaps inevitable. It was Lenín Moreno’s time in the barrel.

In late February, one of Moreno’s political rivals revealed he’d received a tranche of leaked documents from an anonymous source. The files, he claimed, showed Moreno had corruptly profited from a deal with a Chinese firm. The dossier was dubbed the “INA Papers,” after one of the shell companies allegedly used to channel the money, INA Investments Corp.

Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen.
The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.

#47. To: Liberator, FED mother lode of corruption, inflation taxes (#41)

The Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2015 (H.R. 24) was a bill introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives of the 114th United States Congress by Congressman Thomas Massie (KY-4). It included proposals for a reformed audit of the Federal Reserve System (the "Fed"). The Senate version was introduced by Senator Rand Paul (R-KY). (S. 264).

The original version of the bill, (H.R. 1207), was proposed by now retired Congressman Ron Paul in response to the 2008 financial crisis during the 111th United States Congress. The Senate version was introduced by Bernie Sanders (I-VT). (S. 604). Ron Paul was disappointed with the Senate's version of the bill, stating it "guts the spirit of a truly meaningful audit of the most crucial transactions of the Fed".[1]

The bill was subsequently brought up in the 112th United States Congress as (H.R. 459) /S. 202[2][3] and in the 113th United States Congress as (H.R. 24)/S. 209. All three previous attempts passed in United States House of Representatives but died in the US Senate.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve_Transparency_Act

Ron Paul's audit the FED bill lives on, and is still being ignored by "leadership".

So my question is: how did somebody like that [MANNING] ever get "top secret" clearance to begin with?

...he/she was also an unstable nutjob on top of that! Just how someone like THAT get's to be an "intelligence analyst" is mind boggling....

EXACTLY. You've done The Math, Willie. Good job.

Based on your observations on Manning's apparent psychological profile of delusion, insanity, dis-qualification and instability, this provides the Exhibit "A" reasons Manning was a Deep State Mole FROM THE GET GO.

Of course then there was 0bama shortening his stay at a jail/Club Fed facility -- which didn't seem to evoke ourage or raise ANY eyebrows from the SAME hypocritical Senators and Congressman frothing at the mouth over hanging Assange.

Given the seriousness of the charge against Manning (who we are told worked FOR the US Military), why wouldn't Manning be as much or MORE a pariah OR "Enemy of the State" than Assange (who did NOT work for the US Military or GOVT)?

Notice the phoney-baloney pols in both parties are ecstatic about the possibility of Britain letting us have Assange (not a done deal by any means). But how many of them have even mentioned revisiting the Manning case to find further charges against him? I don't think Obama could pardon him for any and all crimes committed, only the ones that he was convicted of. And they should be able to find more charges to put that treasonous man-bitch back behind bars where he belongs.

Julian Assange to remain in jail pending extradition to US

WikiLeaks founder’s custody will be extended after current prison terms comes to end

Sat 14 Sep 2019 05.18 EDT Last modified on Sat 14 Sep 2019 06.22 EDT

Julian Assange will stay in prison after the custody period on his current jail term ends because of his “history of absconding”.

As home secretary, Sajid Javid signed an order in June allowing Assange’s extradition to the US over hacking allegations. A 50-week jail term was imposed in the UK after he had jumped previous bail by going into hiding in the Ecuadorian embassy in London.

The WikiLeaks founder would have been released from HMP Belmarsh on 22 September, Westminster magistrates court heard on Friday, but he was told he would be kept in jail because of “substantial grounds” for believing he would abscond again.

Assange, 48, who is an Australian citizen, appeared by video-link wearing a loose-fitting T-shirt.

District judge Vanessa Baraitser told him: “You have been produced today because your sentence of imprisonment is about to come to an end. When that happens your remand status changes from a serving prisoner to a person facing extradition.

“Therefore I have given your lawyer an opportunity to make an application for bail on your behalf and she has declined to do so, perhaps not surprisingly in light of your history of absconding in these proceedings.

“In my view I have substantial ground for believing if I release you, you will abscond again.”

Assange was asked if he understood what was happening. He replied: “Not really. I’m sure the lawyers will explain it.”

Another administrative hearing will take place on 11 October and a case management hearing on 21 October, the court heard. The final extradition hearing is expected in February.

Assange entered the Ecuadorian embassy in 2012 to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he was wanted in connection with sexual offence allegations.He spent nearly seven years living in the building until police dragged him out in April after Ecuador revoked his political asylum.
