Biden considering request to drop Assange case

MSN is reporting that "President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he is considering a request from Australia to drop the decade-long U.S. push to prosecute Wikileaks founder Julian Assange for publishing a trove of American classified documents. For years, Australia has called on the U.S. to drop its prosecution against Assange, an Australian citizen who has fought U.S. extradition efforts from prison in the U.K. Asked about the request on Wednesday, as he hosted Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida for an official visit, Biden said, “We’re considering it.”

So was Donald Trump but he didn't do anything about it. Can you imagine Biden pardoning Assange when Trump didn't? That would be astounding. Australia's parliament made the request.

    It's purely a ploy for garnering some centre/right voters.

      I don't care what it is. Stand with any man as long as he stands right and part with them when they go wrong. If he does this we need to discuss the fact that he did it and Trump didn't. We can agree with some things other parties do right without supporting what they do wrong.
