Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange plans to plead guilty to a conspiracy charge this week as part of a plea deal with the U.S. Justice Department that will allow him to go free after having spent five years in a British prison, according to court documents.
Assange was charged by criminal information — which typically signifies a plea deal — with conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense information, the court documents say. A letter from Justice Department official Matthew McKenzie to U.S. District Judge Ramona Manglona of the Northern Mariana Islands District said that Assange would appear in court at 9 a.m. local time Wednesday (7 p.m. ET Tuesday) to plead guilty and that the Justice Department expects Assange will return to Australia, his country of citizenship, after the proceedings.
U.S. charges against Assange stem from one of the largest publications of classified information in American history, which took place during President Barack Obama’s first term. Starting in late 2009, according to the government, Assange conspired with Chelsea Manning, a military intelligence analyst, to use his WikiLeaks website to disclose tens of thousands of activity reports about the war in Afghanistan, hundreds of thousands of reports about the war in Iraq, hundreds of thousands of State Department cables and assessment briefs of detainees at the U.S. detention camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.
Court documents revealing Assange’s plea deal were filed Monday evening in U.S. District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory in the Pacific Ocean. Assange was expected to appear in that court and to be sentenced to 62 months, with credit for time served in British prison, meaning he would be free to return to Australia, where he was born.
“This was an independent decision made by the Department of Justice and there was no White House involvement in the plea deal decision,” National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in a statement Monday evening. — NBC News
Our Take: Convergence.
Mileage varies in the truth community regarding Julian Assange, and whether or not he’s been acting on behalf of patriots in a clandestine manner, or if he simply got tangled up in a self-serving web that resulted in him being caught between an ancient criminal cabal and the most intricate MIL INT operation ever devised.
Here’s the thing: Assange’s intent doesn’t matter. All that matters is what he knows. More so, what the Narrative CLAIMS he knows.
Whatever Assange knows re: Seth Rich, the Clinton Foundation, the DNC and MUCH, much more, patriots already know. Guess what? Patriots also know the 2020 election was stolen, that Covid was a hoax and that Vladimir Putin is NOT going to nuke anyone.
All of which is comforting, but secondary to the War of Stories, in which core truths are being translated and then delivered to the American people through Mind-Movers and cyphers, also known as characters.
For long-time Anons, it’s feeling VERY 2017 lately.
