May 16, 20215 yr 2,000 miles is a hell of a trip to storm the Capitol. And, as Voltron says - why Montana?
May 19, 20215 yr Easiest to arrest? I don't know, I'm not surprised by Virginia, Maryland, and so on, 'cause they probably just drove, but Montana's too far not to fly? I don't know, just a theory.

June 18, 20215 yr One of the reasons that Assange holed up in the Ecuador embassy in London was he was facing charges for rape in Sweden. And of course extradition to the USA. Although rape is an awful crime, there was something about the Swedish case that did not quite sound right, and if one was cynical it was all part of an extradition attempt. In due course, the rape charge was dropped because the case against him, according to the Swedish prosecutor, was "weak". There is a continuing attempt to extradite him, which keeps being blocked by UK courts. He is currently being held in Belmarsh prison without bail (on remand, before trial), because he is a flight risk. He is in prison because he breached the terms of his original bail, and holed up in the Ecuador embassy. Mexico has offered him asylum. The whole Assange thing is very strange, and in spite of Chelsea Manning's sentence being commuted by Obama, her legal position is still fragile.
