Forgive my oversight.

Why would we care, Kay Ann? 99.9% of election interference comes from domestic left-wing sources. Worrying about Russia and Ukraine is a waste of time and resources.

There's a YUGE effort in the UK right now to pull the license fee because people have gotten sick and tired of their endless leftist reporting. This including being 100% against Brexit. I'll rank them with NBC, CBS ABC, etc. Maybe a few cuts above CNN. There's been nothing relevant from that tired news organization for years.

No one to blame but ourselves.
So much truth in this. We get the leadership we deserve.

Doesn't matter who reported it - these are the words of Trump's attorney in court.

And you didn't address the point made in the OP.



THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO PROOF that has been presented. If there is, why don't you cut & paste it here.

It all depends if Assange has any real hard evidence of this.

Personally I would like Assange who is Australian sent back to Australia so that his own Government can decide on the issue.

I also worry about a future legal precdent being set in relation to the extradition of political figures and journalists.

We will have to wait and see what happens when Assange's extrsadition hearing starts at Woolwich Crwn Court this Monday.

Personally I think Trump should have pardoned Assange a long time ago. His crime? Exposing the truth about Obama and the DNC, and Hillary Clinton.



He should be getting a medal out of it.

Why not? Medals don't mean anything anymore anyway.
