As Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas wrote in New York Times Co. v. United States, the landmark case in which the Court allowed the publication of the Pentagon Papers which, you may recall, the Nixon Administration argued were obtained illegally...

'The dominant purpose of the First Amendment was to prohibit the widespread practice of governmental suppression of embarrassing information. It is common knowledge that the First Amendment was adopted against the widespread use of the common law of seditious libel to punish the dissemination of material that is embarrassing to the powers-that-be. The present cases will, I think, go down in history as the most dramatic illustration of that principle. A debate of large proportions goes on in the Nation over our posture in Vietnam. That debate antedated the disclosure of the contents of the present documents. The latter are highly relevant to the debate in progress. Secrecy in government is fundamentally anti-democratic, perpetuating bureaucratic errors. Open debate and discussion of public issues are vital to our national health. On public questions, there should be "uninhibited, robust, and wide-open" debate.

Again, I don't really have anything against these people but there is enough for the government to go on.

My understanding is the EDVA sealed case is a direct outcropping from Mueller's investigation. We know that Mueller was trying to force testimony out of Stone, et al, concerning their "coordination" with Wikileaks and/or the Russian hackers.

I sincerely doubt Trump gives a flying fuck about Assange. Unfortunately, he will probably be advised by every cuck around him not to "interfere" due to fear of "obstruction" of the election interference investigation/prosecution.

Also, anyone actually believe this just *coincidentally* comes the day after Barr says he's going to look into Deep State's spying, etc? Everything done by Mueller has been politically timed throughout the entirety of the investigation.

It is a problem of the Russian mind: as a rule, they do not understand and do not trust Western dissidents of Assange’s ilk. They want their western sympathisers to be bought and paid for. Free agents are suspicious in their eyes. God knows there are many people in the West whose opinions roughly coincide with those of the Russians; but the Russians would prefer to buy a journalist off the peg. That’s why RT has had more than its fair share of defectors, that is of broadcasters who denounced RT and went to the Western mass media.
