Scott Horton Show – Just the Interviews

9/21/23 Trevor Timm on Assange, the Espionage Act and Growing Pressure from the Australians

32 min • 24 september 2023

Trevor Timm of the Freedom of the Press Foundation joins the show to give an overview of the U.S.’s case against Julian Assange. They look back at why Obama was uncharacteristically reluctant to charge Assange. That brings them to the current case, brought by the Trump Administration and continued by Biden. They explain the case, debunk the common characterization of Assange as a hacker and finish with a quick look at why Australian officials may be the best chance for an Assange pardon.
