  1. "espionage" means that someone gets a classifide information of one state and gives this to any other state, right? but in the Assange case – to which state could he possibly give the information??? here the "espionage charge" is out of place!

  2. You know I can't help but put "buyer beware" and "they make you pay", together, as in, some things aren't worth suffering over. And I think that's the whole Qu'ran (an inherent part of the Torah/New Testament). You mean like a toxic relationship? Like a really bad one (I like toxic women)

  3. You know the theoretical basis of historical materialism is the theory of the Kiss, right? You can't conceptualize what has not yet been actualized. Or, "Kiss me you fool"

  4. "Why are you dressed in Red like Edom", Esau has a "son" (it doesn't specify) who's a tribal chieftan named "Magdiel", sickles are used for reaping… Or rapturing!?!??!? Also "Maccabee" and "Mark" (John's alter) means "Hammer". Also Martel

  5. The msm IS the enemy of the people! They mis-characterize most people on the right. We are NOT White Nationalists, Nazi sympathizers. We are NOT xenophobic, bigots, etc. wHY should we trust anything the msm says?

  6. Teddy Barr is trying to charge espionage because he PUBLISHED the hacked info. So did every news channel and newsroom. Those charges are an assault on the First Amendment. Tubby Teddy found a way for his trainer to attack the "enemy of the people." Leaking info supposedly is a crime. A free press depends on info that is leaked. Otherwise, it would be only Orangeboy's lies. Hey — it works for all the other despots on Comrade Fuhrer's friends list.

  7. All governments use their citizens think of your taxes. They are playing the blaime game because the US government got caught with what they and other governments do to sustain their "war money machine"

  8. Assange should have started a phony war in Iraq, bombed Syria, destroyed 33,000 top secret emails, built a private server in his basement, and lied before Congress. He's still be walking around a free man.

  9. The Trump regime has utter contempt for the American Constitution. They continually show this, and the Republicans in general have consistently shown that the Constitution only comes into play when it suits their agenda.

  10. The "COLLATERAL MURDER" Video, is what this is all about, in my opinion. The US. Regime doesn't want anyone to know, how many innocent people they are murdering, (For Fun) !

  11. I feel like we've reached the point of massive, month long protests/camp outs/civil disobedience…
    and if that should fail…
    I reluctantly & sadly accept that the second amendment be invoked to reclaim/restore the first.

  12. Sweden cannot be trusted at all. Consensual sex between adult is called rape when it pleases them. Orwellian world indeed.

  13. Preposterous. Those who commit crimes have the gut to punish the ones that bring their crimes to the open. Wonderful world! Where is amnesty international and all other international agencies supposed to protect peoples against governments?

  14. Within the broader context of the discourse here, it's probably worth keeping in mind that propaganda is a perfectly legal practice in the U.S. thanks to Obama's 2011 NDAA legislation as regards what is called 'journalism', Trump's remarks concerning the mainstream media quite aside.

  15. It is absolutely true that man may choose his form of government. There may be many forms of government in one nation and the majority to that political form, rules the others. However, the United States does not like competition and anytime one of these new forms of government, being the peoples rights to alter or abolish it completely, or a church chooses not to incorporate it and be ruled by the United States, the United States will attack it, like the compound in Waco Texas in 1993. We have no private banks to which we can accumulate our wealth without the United States being able to get its hands on us when we refuse to pay for endless wars through the Internal Revenue Service. The United States has become a capitalists empire by requiring corporations to register with it and corporations passing their services off as requirements for all so called “citizens.” Corporations doing business with the United States are required to follow the laws of the United States and those corporations pass the requirement along to its customers/citizens. When the corporation finds it necessary the weild the sword of the courts and use the police as its army to collect from “citizens” even when the “citizen” has rights not acknowledged by the corporation, the court or the federal government. The United States has become a corporation regulation monopoly which injures the many people who have ignorantly contracted with the corporations and the United States.
