Assange Extradition Looming
Lori SpencerJulian #Assange will most likely be extradited to the United States, and it could happen any day now. The British High Court ruled last month that all eight parts of Assange’s potential appeal were not “arguable” and should not be heard by the court. “The proposed appeal comes to no more than an attempt to re-run the extensive arguments made to and rejected by the district judge,” the Court's ruling said. Assange’s wife, Stella Assange, said the #WikiLeaks founder has almost exhausted his avenues of appeal in the U.K. but could still try to take his case to the European Court of Human Rights. “We remain optimistic that we will prevail and that Julian will not be extradited to the United States, where he faces charges that could result in him spending the rest of his life in a maximum-security prison for publishing true information that revealed war crimes committed by the US government,” Stella Assange said on Twitter. On this episode of the Welsh Republic podcast, we discussed the current status of Julian's case, and what the #Biden administration could do -- or perhaps a future #Trump or #Kennedy administration -- to save Assange from life (or death) in prison.

Julian Assange ALL-STAR Birthday Event!
Lori SpencerIf you missed our live global Twitter Space yesterday-- a birthday vigil for Julian Assange as his extradition to the United States approaches -- you can catch the replay here. We had an amazing panel of guest speakers, journalists, and friends of Assange on hand. Speakers included: Former U.N. Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter, Jose Vega, Anastasia Battle, Independent U.S. Senate Candidate from New York Diane Sare, RT Reporter Caleb Maupin, TNT Radio host Misty Winston, Angela McArdle, National Chair of the #Libertarian Party, podcast hosts Jay Scott of the Jay Scott Ascension, Craig Yo Pasta of The Convo Couch, Welsh of the Welsh Republic podcast, "Declaring Independence" co-host Kynan Thistlethwaite, and a few surprise guests from the U.K., Australia, and James Bond (007 himself) even showed up while on undercover assignment in India! Listen to the playback on Twitter below (available for 60 days, after that it is auto-deleted). https://twitter.com/RealLoriSpencer/status/1674597505588248579?s=20 If you're not a Twitter user, or just prefer to listen on another platform, the Twitter Space for Julian Assange will be archived permanently on my YouTube and Rumble channels. As Americans celebrate our Independence this July 4th, let us not forget the importance of an Independent and free press -- and that our press is not truly free until Julian #Assange is free. * This event was dedicated to the memory of Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, a longtime friend of Assange, who passed away last month.

Friends of Assange Suing the CIA
Lori SpencerThe Central Intelligence Agency and former CIA director Mike #Pompeo notified a federal court in New York that they intend to push for the dismissal of a lawsuit that alleges that they were involved in spying against attorneys and journalists who visited #WikiLeaks founder Julian #Assange in Ecuador’s London embassy. Both the CIA and Pompeo maintain that the “allegations in the complaint do not establish a violation of the Fourth Amendment [right to privacy].” The Agency has tried to delay and dismiss the suit since it was filed last summer. In August 2022, four Americans who visited Assange in the embassy sued the CIA and Pompeo in his individual capacity: Margaret Ratner Kunstler, a civil rights activist and human rights attorney; Deborah Hrbek, a media lawyer, represented Assange or WikiLeaks; journalist John Goetz, who worked for Der Spiegel when the German media organization first partnered with WikiLeaks; and journalist Charles Glass, who wrote articles on Assange for The Intercept. On this edition of Maverick News we discuss the invasion of privacy lawsuit against the CIA, and hear from two of the plaintiffs involved. #FreeAssange If you'd like to help support my independent journalism, you can do so here.
