This is the second video in my ongoing art series The Disappearing of Julian Assange, about the way Assange's image is being deliberately erased from the public's consciousness:
The wolves are now after Matt Taibbi and we will soon see what will either be a second journalist being imprisoned or not. Though Matt is not the only one who has exposed a direct violation of the 1st amendment he is the one this administration has immediately attacked. He did something that may help or really hurt him by giving the files to the public at the same time as he did the committee! The democrats are trying to put this under the rug and because they are so corrupt it will probably work. There should be heads rolling over this blatant violation of our constitutional rights but that's not why he was called to this hearing is it!
I just got a message from Matt's Substack and he said it was every bit as scary as I thought it was above here. He was told right out in the open that he is "A Direct Threat as he opposes them"! This shows just what psychotic nut jubs these people are! They don't care who violated the constitution just how it needs to be covered up! These criminals really need to go.
The reality is there is an endless supply of criminals in-waiting once the current ones are removed by force, or by time...and the next ones are bound to be worse than those inhabiting the Hill today. Its the system that breeds them as such...and thats what needs to be changed if we want to save this nation.
I have written to my republican reps many times and they are just as big of warmongering scum as the democrats. When it comes to Julian they give a pat response which is they are firm in their stance when it comes to defending the country! So who did you call?
Because of French government demands to remove creators from our platform, Rumble is currently unavailable in France. We are challenging these government demands and hope to restore access soon.
Come on , Australians, Write to your local MP, stir the possum. This man did us all a great favour with his courageous journalism by showing the world in no uncertain terms that the world's #1 criminal is the USA, not the people but the Israeli controlled politicians, dancing to the tune of the militarists.
Just some added background, Jane.Please be assured that even though my representative is not ‘harangued’ by me as such, but advised of all my (and many others) requests as the months go by, still nothing changes. In deference to her energies (yes, a lady) she was one of 9 parliamentarians out of 151 in total who made a representation to your feeble President on the subject of Julian. Obviously to no avail. But she did it. Was carried in full colour in Consortium News and she has my respect for that action as well
Just for interest, the media here are almost all rightwing warmongers and one even more extreme rightwing owner like Murdoch. They don’t ever mention Julian.
In my own small world, the matter is raised with other "representatives" on a weekly basis through an active advocacy. Again, probably a waste of effort as the football season here has just begun, two out of three major newspapers owned by the football beneficiary, the third by Murdoch.
Sadly though it is my considered opinion that Biden and his Neocon machine are holding the “release Julian" card close to their chest in case enough representatives from this island finally wake up and see the trial of Julian to have been unjust, arrogant and illegal and demand some generous consideration from Biden and his Netanyahu masters (a.k.a. “the Nuland nasties”), hopefully before the “Death of Australia" contract called AUKUS, the deal that makes us a nuclear weaponised country comes into play. (Again, a reminder, Australia, just 25 million people….China, 1.4 billion). What a proxy battle that will be on behalf of whoever is your President in 2040.
Won’t last very long. Now if it was a game of cricket or a tennis match instead of war, might be different. We do play sports above our weight. But independent policies? Hardly. Just whistle. We’ll be there, boots and all.
Biden, may then see an opportunity and make a concession.' Julian freed, you Aussie whingers …IF you agree to 'this or that’. ‘ The USA…experts in sanctions, dirty deals, assassinations, bullying, lies and wars, wars, wars.
We’ll change the last verse of your nation’s main song
So stand up now and sing along
Oh! thus be it ever, where warmongers shall stand
To ensure that the fighting is on foreign land
Blest with victory and peace, may the new conquered place
Praise our fathers for making an ‘exceptional' race
To conquer our aim, gaining power when we must,
Extolling our motto: “In wars do we trust.”
And the star-spangled banner, as bullies we're waving
O’er all little countries, no people worth saving.
I am completely dismayed by the number of so called liberals I know who do not get passionate at all about Assange or the absurd US arrogance that we can just pluck any foreigner we want for violating our laws. Americans have been so brainwashed. It is pathetic. But I am also sad that the Australian government has abandoned him. All in fear a US bully.
Hell, plenty of goodthink liberals are convinced that Assange deserves prison or worse, even though publishing classified information is not a crime under US law - see the NYT v United States, in which the Nixon Administration tried and failed to prevent the NYT from publishing the Pentagon Papers.
The propaganda doesn't say he's being prosecuted for publishing but for hacking the DNC's computers. Supposedly leading to Hillary's (gasp!) loss of the presidency. Unforgivable crime of lèse-majesté.
You don't get it Jean. The political system is entirely corrupt. Begging a Democrat or a Republican to do something that is humane, such as stopping an obscene war in Ukraine, or freeing Assange- debases one's dignity now. These people in DC - don't deserve our attention or time. Miggety is right - electoral politics has become a dead end road, it has become a corporate, elite run scam.
The only way change will occur is from the ground up or by a people's revolt. The level of corruption we are now at in the West is at "Tale of Two Cities" Charles Dickens level. Justice is corrupt. The politicians are corrupt. Wealth inequality is obscene. War is endless. The system itself is corporately captured and entirely, unalterably corrupt.
I never identified as anything on the left, but I sure as Heaven miss the 1980s liberals that I grew up with who were 100% in favor of free speech. I really, really, really, really miss them 100%. In retrospect, I love them.
What happened was today's liberals got the whip hand, and once they did, they made The Church Lady look like G.G.Allin by comparison.
Meanwhile, the subversives, the outrageous pranksters, the roasters of sacred cows and speakers of Forbidden Truths are on the Alt-Right and the Dirt bag Left.
This is not because of any inherent censoriousness on the part of liberals, or any inherent virtue on the part of their enemies, but an artifact of their respective relationships to power.
Edit: I think the NSA has hijacked my autocorrect and typing is hard enough for me as it is
I think you have a good point. I've begun to wonder if the reason 1980s liberals were anti-censorship was because they were in the minority. They were also pro-peace in the 2000s, when Bush was taking us to war with everyone.
Then, when Obama was at war for literally every day of his presidency, which was the most of any American president, suddenly, liberals were pro-war.
Anymore, I just like the people I perceive as honest, whether they are on the left, right, or none of the above, because...well...who doesn't prefer honesty?
Labels are sometimes useful, but often are misleading. But propaganda, often disguised as 'education', exceptionally augmented and enhanced by the twice nephew of Sigmund Freud, Edward Bernays (the "Father of Public Relations") trumps all. Twisted half-truths and totally false lies permeate our government and corporate fiefdoms. We have a terrible fight before US. Long dark, dark nights before, hopefully, a scintilla of dawn.
Yeah - I don't see any easy way out of this as well. We are descending into a Charles Dickens level of corruption and injustice in the West. Watching the Matt Taibbi clown show in DC yesterday - would be proof enough for anyone with eyes to see, on just how corrupt US governance has become. These people grilling Taibbi (the stench of Debbie Wasserman for example) are not there for the US Constitution or We the People. Americans no longer have a representative government whatsoever. And the US Constitution is quickly becoming a circus artifact of American history and nothing more.
I happily identify as a liberal. Or I would if anyone ever asked me.
And hence I find it tiresome that people I respect use the term "liberal" to refer to people whose political ideology seems to be pretty similar to that of Mussolini.
Well, to be honest, I'm actually an old fashioned classical liberal - of the 19th or early 20th century variety. More European liberal than US liberal. More Richard Cobden, or Herbert Spencer, or Frédéric Bastiat than LBJ.
Hi Jean, the nickname is from when I was in grade school. It was logical since it's a combination of my real name and my interest in science. https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.10518
See if you can find me in the list of authors : ) I have often thought as many Sci-Fi stories have written, would the world be a better place with the cold hard logic of AI. I think the reasons we are here is we all know something more is wrong than the topic of the day. Many of my stories revolve around human reaction to resource depletion, Dark Matter Zombies, Dirty Dozen to Mars , Super Gun ha. I like you too, it's nice to find friends on the same path of discovery. I love Caitlin not having ever met her. Hugs : )
"When one knew that any document was due for destruction, or even when one saw a scrap of waste paper lying about, it was an automatic action to lift the flap of the nearest memory hole and drop it in, whereupon it would be whirled away on a current of warm air to the enormous furnaces which were hidden somewhere in the recesses of the building." -- George Orwell, 1984
Thank you Caitlin. There's so much going on newswise in the world, none of it covered honestly in the legacy media, it's good to remember Julian sometimes I myself forget about him for awhile so I always appreciate a 'Free Julian' comment or reminder when I see it.
The U.S. is certainly acting like a dying empire: it's grown increasingly dishonest and vicious. Maybe it was the covid lies that red pilled many. For me, it was the sudden, stark memory that--in the 1980s--I remember all my friends freaking out when it was announced that the national debt was now $1 trillion. Everyone thought: this is so irresponsible, and a screw job for our kids.
Now it's $31.6 trillion.
And yet, it is so impossible for any family to live on one income, like in the 1950s. So, we can always send $100 billion to the grifters in Ukraine, and poke the Russian bear, but we can't do anything for ordinary people, other than:
* Lie to them about Julian;
* Lie to them about Snowden:
* Lie about Nord Stream 2;
* Inflate away their life savings.
It's all a sham. It's all fake. It's all in service of sociopaths like Biden, although we all know he's just a puppet.
Here's a thought: impeach and imprison the puppets. Maybe that will discourage other people from going into the profession of political mouthpieces for cabal that exploits us all. If nothing else, it will feel good.
This is a vital, dynamic portrait of Assange and a reminder he is still with us, and always will be. The crimes against Assange are characteristic of the Bully Empire of Nothing, because that's what bullies are - Nothing.
Any of those commenting who think that this is a political issue are barking up the wrong prison tree. So quickly those, seemingly in the know, forget that ours is not a two-party system, but a duopoly - a one party system consisting of two sub-divisions that has very few real differences. Instead, they are working together to fulfill the demands of the oligarch sociopaths who are largely responsible for they're being in office, or not. To a man, or women, those holding high position - senate, house, presidency, and our not-so-supreme court - their verbal fighting with the other party is but a sham of a smokescreen to hide how the oligarchs are stealing our country and freedoms, with the world their ultimate goal, - and how they have been demanding the tortuous years to which Julian Assange has been subjected. Anyone who reveals the deep, dark truths they want to hide is their enemy. As long as the parties are faux fighting one another, so are the people - but most of the latter actually believing every word like good cult members.
As I see it, the last integrous president - Jimmy Carter - whether you liked him or not, will soon be gone. But if he were in charge now, Assange would not be in jail, because the U.S. had not yet followed the example of ancient Rome and become our current overextended Empire that believes that any behavior whatsoever, no matter how heinous, is acceptable in support of what it perceives to be its manifest destiny. And, in following the path of Rome, factoring in the differences in weaponry, the U.S., before too long, as ancient Rome did, will soon find itself little more than a footnote in history.
My many friends and I have not forgotten - despite government efforts to whitewash him out of existence. We all demand that, It is time to
Their are some typos in my message that were absolutely not there when I proofred its accuracy four times before posting. For example, I would NEVER misspell Assange.

I thought the claim was ostensibly for supplying Chelsea Manning with password suggestions for a DoD computer?
Regardless, a pretext.

Obama did more to neuter the antiwar movement than anything Bush/Cheney could have dreamed of doing
Anyway, your last paragraph says it all.

Technology trends towards the brazen theft of reality, as regimes demand a media-control of reality to remain in power.
There is AI research in reproducing mental imagery.
Japanese research is on the cusp of producing AI replicated imagery produced within the mind.
It’s ‘promise’ is said to be useful in therapy and dream imagery recording and reconstruction.
Imagine interrogations using AI reproductions of a suspect’s visual mental imagery.
Research into reproduction of mental imagery seems a perfect tool for a regime dependent in the control of reality for continued empowerment.
One might ask the scope of research capitalization from ‘intelligence’ operators to ascertain interested regimes.
