So, here's how it goes. Yes, he was arrested today, or yesterday, whatever. He's in the custody of the Brits. In order for us to get custody of him, he will have to be extradited from the Brits.
We have to have an indictment against him to extradite him, which we do. It was only unsealed recently, and it covers his activities during the period of his misdeeds in cooperation with Bradley Manning. He helped Manning figure out a password to get into classified information, which was illegal. If we ask for him to be sent to the US based on this warrant, because of international treaty law, we cannot then try him on any other crime he may have committed prior to his extradition. That's absolute international treaty law.
So if Assange is brought to the US very quickly, his entire involvement in the theft of the Podesta and Clinton e-mails, his cooperation with Russian spies to screw up our election, nothing he did in 2016 can be charged against him.
William Barr, of course, has no intention of charging him with any of that stuff to begin with, because it would reveal too much to the American people.
Now my suspicious mind is beginning to move into overdrive. Was the arrest of Assange at this particular time arranged, possibly by some covert means between Trump, Putin and the Embassy where he has been for 7 years, specifically because it's the best course of action for Trump, Putin, AND Assange? Am I being paranoid, or is this a possibility? I don't believe anything my eyes see anymore, I doubt it all.
