Julian Assange has, in the respected tradition of American journalism obtained and published information that is classified and newsworthy, a practice shared with the Washington Post, New York Times, Wall Street Journal et al. The accuracy of materials published by Wikileaks has ever been in dispute. Assertions by the American Intelligence Services that Julian Assange is the agent of a ‘Hostile Foreign State” or the Russian government is politically suspect and completely unproven and denied by Assange. Assange is a humanitarian journalist providing an invaluable platform for whistleblowers exposing corruption and criminality infesting governments, nullifying democracy and obliterating human rights, around the world. We the undersigned urge President Donald J. Trump, Pardon Julian Assange.
