Assange is a bit of a scumbag, but unrelatedly, his efforts for freedom of information should not land him in US torture prisons like many others.
What does this have do with the fact he's been jailed for years and is waiting extradition to usa? It literally looks like you are trying to spread dirt on him for no reason other than choosing what story to cover, something most publisher do on daily basis and on a much worst scale.
"Trump totally didn’t offer him a pardon to say Russia had nothing to do with it."
You may have missed the part where he's still in jail and the trump government had a plot to have him assasinated
