Assange gone.

A new guvmint in Ecuador wanted an IMF loan and the US made it conditional on this. It's been a while since I read what some of the Trump cultists were saying, but they loved JA and reckoned DJT would spring him and pardon him. Whether they will be disappointed or pleased, we shall see.

Well he's just been further arrested on a US extradition warrant, so....

Ooh really? They might fry him, those crazy Yanquis.

That would be amusing, but being massive pussies, we'll probably insist no extradition can take place without a guarantee they won't top him.

That's an EU law though, and since we're no longer, hold on, wait...

I wish they'd topped that other one. You know, the one who turned into a girl.

To be fair, any bástard daft enough to publish US government secrets whilst expecting not to die as a result clearly needs to be removed from the gene pool.
