News Julian Assange Senator Benett First Amendment Press Freedom Action Denver Colorado

On April 4th, 2024 DenverAction2FreeJulianAssange questioned Daniel Baer and Colorado Senator Michael Bennet about the assault on a Free Press in relation to the unethical imprisonment and prosecution of Julian Assange. Dan Baer repeats the lie that anyone was put in harms way by the releases, when in fact the government, under oath, stated no one was put in harms way. The publication The Guardian was also responsible for the leak of prior redacted names, not Wikileaks or Julian Assange.

Senator Michael Benett is currently working to establish a federal committee that would control all online content. “Digital Platform Commission Act.” Here is the text.
