What the U.S. government is doing to Julian Assange puts all journalists at risk and undermines press freedom. He faces prosecution for journalism—for publishing materials exposing war crimes and other horrors in Afghanistan and Iraq. Uphold the 1st Amendment. Free or pardon him.

Il y a les résistants d’hier comme #Manouchian, abandonnés à leur sort tragique avant d’être honorés bien plus tard. Et il y a les résistants d’aujourd’hui comme #Assange, délaissés alors qu’ils perpétuent ce refus des servitudes. #FreeAssange @Mediapart https://t.co/kKslZHrnWL

Julian Assange's case is one of the most important press freedom cases in modern history. Extradition would set a dangerous precedent for all journalists and media organisations across the world, with a chilling effect. pic.twitter.com/EcxRSMAxuR

Julian Assange faces an Orwellian legal persecution for exposing corruption and war crimes committed by our government. The Trump/Biden plan to imprison him for life is an attack on press freedom and democracy itself.

Every American who has rightly denounced Navalny’s death should also speak out about an injustice we still have an opportunity to correct: pardon Julian Assange. He now sits in a foreign prison for doing what the DC press corps does every day. Yet Chelsea Manning, the government… https://t.co/rFUihtNeFe

A liberdade de imprensa é violentamente atacada na figura de Julian Assange, jornalista do Wikileaks que revelou os crimes de guerra cometidos pelos EUA. O "crime" de Assange foi revelar essas atrocidades. Sua extradição para os EUA pode significar a condenação à prisão perpétua.

Si el Reino Unido acepta la solicitud de Estados Unidos para extraditar a Julian Assange, no solo lo estaría condenando a muerte, sino que estaría siendo cómplice en los intentos de silenciar las verdades que sobre los crímenes del Imperio expuso Assange.

How could publisher Julian Assange possibly get a fair trial in a country (the US) that has trashed the 1st and 4th amendments in its rabid attack on him. US government is bent on using Julian to show what happens when you reveal government misconduct See: https://t.co/M67Ct2Per7

Il n’y a pas que la Russie qui emprisonne et fait disparaître ses opposants. Il y a aussi les États-Unis et l’Angleterre, qui persécutent Assange depuis plusieurs années et qui mettent en danger sa vie.

WikiLeaks didn’t just give us an early glimpse into the state-corporate complex, but also, through his ordeal, into how the various parts of that system — the state, Big Tech, finance — operate in lockstep to crush dissent.
