Never forget, Hillary Clinton wanted to assassinate Julian Assange with a drone strike.

How can you be charged with treason against the USA if you're an Australian citizen? The treason is whats in the Wikileaks files. The Pentagon papers, Clinton emails, etc. It proves our government is shady and killing innocent civilians in wars. Thats worth 162 years or whatever they tried to give him.

God bless our truth tellers. A difficult life at times, but the truth needs light and sharing. Some suffer for it, sadly.

Si no se declara culpable de periodismo hubiera muerto en la cárcel. Esa es la libertad de expresión de la que presumen!

Time up for all the World to open our eyes and realise that our governments no longer want us to have freedom of speech.

Notice what he SAID and what he DIDN'T say. He said he plead guilty for sharing the truth, for telling the truth, for asking for the truth! This is a BRILLIANT human... he's a brilliant WARRIOR. He is the personification of Resilience. Every Man should be like Julian Assange.

This man was imprisoned by our government for telling the truth without any trial, if this happened in Russia or China our government would be calling it a violation of any freedom of speech law, the word hypocrite comes to mind

If you think for one minute he is going to be allowed to speak the truth, you are crazy. I guarantee he had to make deal to be set free. And they will use him to influence YOU!

RT has been banned from UK broadcasting since 2022 under Russia sanctions enforced by Ofcom. So far reading or retweeting this on X will not land you with a jail sentence.

He's free because no one will pay his bills anymore. There was a whistleblower system in place. He calculated fame and money and it didn't happen. Every third world dictatorship kicked him loose once they figured out he's actually a capitalist.
