It looks as if the United States Department of Injustice has “accidentally” revealed secret charges against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Of course, this may have been done deliberately with the intention of making it look like it was released by accident.
SCOOP: US Department of Justice "accidentally" reveals existence of sealed charges (or a draft for them) against WikiLeaks' publisher Julian Assange in apparent cut-and-paste error in an unrelated case also at the Eastern District of Virginia. https://t.co/wrjlAbXk5Z pic.twitter.com/4UlB0c1SAX

Washington Post confirms secret charges against WikiLeaks publisher @JulianAssange. The long running grand jury into WikiLeaks started in April 2010 after the publication of a video revealing the slaying of two Reuters journalists in Iraq https://t.co/k4KNam3Uaq

Assange has been granted political asylum by Ecuador but has been holed up in Ecuador’s London embassy for several years now. This because fake rape charges stemming from a sexual encounter he had in Sweden were filed against him. These charges appear to have been part of a deliberate effort to have him extradited to the United States for trial as the bogus charges were dropped last year.
The thing is, the United States government has officially claimed that they have not charged him with any crimes. So these secret charges coming to light, prove that this was a lie.
If the Department of Injustice successfully extradites Assange to the United States, he should be pardoned. Of course politically that might be tough for Donald Trump since Assange has been linked to this Russian hoax crap.
But what did Assange do wrong any way? He merely published information that was embarrassing to corrupt people working inside the United States government and other governments on a website. And this whole idea of secret charges being filed against someone is highly problematic.
