Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy pledges to pardon WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange if he is elected president of the United States.
that Assange “did nothing other than publish the information that was leaked to him” from a government source:
That’s what the D.C. Press Corps does every day, yet this individual was politically disfavored, therefore, he was persecuted by prosecution. How do we know that? Chelsea Manning, the person who actually worked for the government who leaked that information, had her sentence commuted by President Obama. Why? Because Chelsea Manning is transgender, part of the politically-favored class. It’s interesting how that works.
Ramaswamy emphasized that if elected, “One of the hallmarks of his presidency and the way I lead the Department of Justice will be that we actually believe in equal protection under the law” before zoning in on President Joe Biden and Trump’s classified document cases: If you’re one, president of a party, and you retain documents that the National Archives want to hold, you shouldn’t get prosecuted when a different president, when he was a former senator, did the same thing, especially when he didn’t have the power to declassify it. That’s why I said that I would pardon President Trump if he is convicted on what looks to be some spurious charges looming against him from the DOJ, at least politically motivated ones.
