CIA Whistleblower Jeffrey Sterling on Julian Assange and the Espionage Act

CIA whistleblower Jeffrey Sterling was convicted in "a travesty of a trial" for violating the Espionage Act. He says Julian Assange cannot hope to have a fair hearing in the U.S. criminal justice system if he is prosecuted under the same law for publishing classified documents that exposed war crimes.

Sterling was among the witnesses who spoke in Assange's defense at the Belmarsh Tribunal in Washington on January 20, 2023. The event is named after the Belmarsh prison in London, where Assange has languished for years while fighting extradition to the U.S.

Another American hero. That didn't get the same coverage as Assange and Snowden. Sterling and Kuriako.
And should have.

It’s heartbreaking 💔 how “they” have treated Julian Assange. He has gone through HELL and back already. God protect him when he meets with the “thugs” in America

The time has come to QUESTION & to CHALLENGE. We will need to come together and unite for this.

Amazing speech! ❤ This is completely against the constitution and our rights. This should be illegal and anyone trying to use this act should be punished by our rightful laws.

People need to press their representatives to change or end these laws
