I’d vote for a wet bar and pool table. They could be like the parents of kids going to college. Keep the room exactly the same, with the wall posters and stuffies, in case he returns.

DC Tom Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 So Assmange is taken in to custody...but only AFTER does the DoJ file charges, at which point extradition hearings commence. My question is: who in DOJ filed the charges? Seems like an important point concerning Assmange's survival: if it's the anti-Trump cabal within DOJ and the IC, and given the timing of the arrest, what are the odds Assmange survives the next 72 hours? 2

Seems like an important point concerning Assmange's survival: if it's the anti-Trump cabal within DOJ and the IC, and given the timing of the arrest, what are the odds Assmange survives the next 72 hours? This is the million dollar question. I started getting chatter last week this was imminent (hence the ludicrous speed post) from neutral (not pro or anti Trump) sources. Previous conversations I've had on the Assange topic had led me to believe he was being protected as early as January 2017 by "white hats" (for lack of a better term) because of what he could prove/provide on Russian hacking. Most of the people I spoke with inside the IC were split down the middle on their personal opinions on the man - but they were all on the same page in terms of him playing an important role in the future regarding the coup attempt. It brings me back to the deal he tried to cut with Comey in 2016. It was covered in this thread or the Russia thread (couldn't find it on the search, but will look harder). In 2016 Assange tried to broker a deal with the DOJ to give information on Russian hacking in exchange for immunity. To sweeten the deal, Assange offered to NOT publish the Vault 7 files. This was being brokered by Adam Waldman (Deripaska's attorney/Warner's good buddy). Comey and Clapper said no to the deal - and allowed the Vault 7 files to be released into the wild - and more importantly - allowed the Russian Collusion/Hacking/Conspiracy story continue on unabated. I lean towards today's actions being a protective move more than a move to take him out... but I guess we'll find out soon.
Deranged Rhino Posted April 11, 2019 Author Posted April 11, 2019 This is important: The indictment is dated March 2018. That shows us two things: 1) Sessions drew this up, and then sat on it. Not because he was "asleep" but because timing is key. 2) They don't act until after Mueller closes down and until after Barr brings the national conversation back to spying. Ludicrous speed.
Deranged Rhino Posted April 11, 2019 Author Posted April 11, 2019 Maggie thinks he's speaking off the cuff. Maggie's wrong. Trump is using specific language for a purpose. He's telling people where this is going, as he has been doing for two years. Now we're (almost) at the precipice - and the freakout we're seeing is epic to watch.

If this is true (BIG if to me), then Ecuador's new regime had to have been in on it, and sat on Assange until the time was right. Maybe yes, maybe no. I will say that the soured relations with Assange and Ecuador for the past several months lends credence.

Hard to believe he could overstay his welcome.

I'm trying to remember when, but Trump met with the Ecuadorian president this year... February I think.

That's exactly what is being lined up - a clear, legal killshot on the CF/CFI.
