Mike, thanks for the show on Julian Assange. At the end of his term in office, Trump allegedly had Assange on his list of those to pardon; however, he didn't. Is not Assange's case one of US policy; therefore, whomever is in the white house is irrelevant? Both parties will try to exploit it 'for a minute' like Biden seemed to do recently, for political expediency. I didn't realize that the handling of classified documents had been changed from a midemeanor to a felony. I'm glad you asked your guest about the level of support Assange has been getting from US journalists prompting him to explain how those who have, unfortunately, have been doing the bare minimum. There is so little journalism in US mainstream media. I appreciate your efforts in the independent media, where one can more readily find journalists.
