Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

chelsea is out it seems

BUT

quote:

Attorneys for Manning said the release came after the grand jury’s term expired on Thursday. Her legal team has already been served another subpoena. It demands she appear before a different grand jury on May 17. Manning has vowed not to answer any questions and, therefore, could be returned to custody as early as next week.

Might as well have done this especially how the Intercept was ignorant how he US forced printer manufacturers to make copies traceable back to the individual machines.

according to the indictment they found winner because she was one of six people who looked at the file and they searched the work computers nobody bothered tracing the copy machines

in 2013 the escalator down was barely so much as a glimmer in the Moist Man's eye. chinese extradition would 100% be on the table in a hypothetical 7 year plan, in that instance.

Sweden wants to extradite Assange over rape allegation, complicating U.S. effort to try him for conspiracy

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Sweden reopened an investigation into a rape allegation against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Monday and will seek to extradite him from Britain, a potential setback to efforts by the United States to put him on trial over a huge release of secret documents.

Deputy Chief Prosecutor Eva-Marie Persson told a news conference in Stockholm she would continue a preliminary investigation that was dropped in 2017 without charges being brought after Assange took refuge in the Ecuadorean embassy in London.

Assange, who denies the accusation, was arrested in Britain last month after spending seven years hiding inside the embassy.

The Swedish prosecutor said she would request Assange be detained in his absence on probable cause for an allegation of rape and that her office would issue a European arrest warrant - the start of the extradition process.

The United States is also seeking to extradite him on conspiracy charges relating to the public release by Wikileaks of a cache of secret documents, including assessments of foreign leaders, wars and security matters.

The British courts will have to rule on the two extradition requests, with Home Secretary Sajid Javid having the final say on which one takes precedence.

If he gets extradited to and is convicted in Sweden he should just keep commiting crimes in Sweden in order to not get extradited to America

idg manning's problem with grand juries as a concept, doesn't she know that sometimes bad people have to be prosecuted?

It’s terrible that Chelsea will have to go back to prison after being released but she is demonstrating the highest level of courage and integrity in standing by her principals.

God bless her, she is a friend and ally to the people

i sort of agree with this, it is a principled stand to take, but this seems like the wrong battle to take.
