and their allies and requested the stop of wikileaks as soon as possible. afterwards, the australian editor of wikileaks, julian paul sange, was arrested by british police in london on april 11th, 2019. he was detained after. after years of taking refuge in the ecuadorian embassy to be punished for the release of these 91,00 secret documents, but what happened to the judges of the international criminal court? in june 2020, donald trump issued an order to impose severe economic sanctions and travel ban on the personnel of the international criminal court in response to their efforts to complete the war crimes investigation against the us military. today, on the eve of september the 11th, i want to deliver a clear and unambiguous message on behalf of the president of the united states. the united states will use any means. necessary to protect our citizens and those of our allies from unjust prosecution by this illegitimate court. we will not cooperate with the icc, we will provide no assistance to the icc, and we certainly will not join the icc. we will let

has really started to do again, now julian sanchez free uh, we've seen wikileaks really picking up and doing much more interesting, because they've been spending, many of the the team been spending lot of their time uh trying to make sure he's freed, and now he has been freed, they're putting lot of effort into getting him pardoned for because of course he didn't commit any crimes, uh, he was exposing war crimes by the us military mainly and other military. and also exposing agendas are going on diplomatically, they hope secretly behind the scenes, so that will be very interesting to see tomorrow, but but no, the the wikileaks have been doing this sort of thing for a long time, revealing that actually much of the impetus and the tactics for what the netanyahu is doing, it comes straight out of langley virginia, cia headquarters, and when you say the the regime is looking for regional war, tony and there the... trying to put pull pardon the us um uh into it to what end? mean you got, i've read up so many different takes by so many different analysts and and critics as to what ultimate g

i know nothing about wikileaks. i have no idea who these women. i don't know anything about russia. i don't know putin. rfk, i don't know anything about him. i know nothing about white supremacists. i don't know who the proud boys are. i don't know anything about david duke. i know nothing about hitler. i don't know anything about it. i know nothing about it. i don't know anything about it. i don't know anything about it. i didn't know knowing about it. i don't know anything about it. i don't know who little john is.

um, speaking of true journalism, uh, one example that comes to mind is julian nassange with the wikileaks story, and of course, you extensively covered and followed that story. uh, first of all, tell us why is that case very important, why does it matter? julie nassange is a freedom fighter, he's a resistance fighter. and the invasion of iraq by the united kingdom and the united states, these are some of the, i mean, this is perhaps the the worst atrocity of the 21st century, and i i used to say that up until gaza, i i suppose gaza is now overtaken that in some aspects, um, but if we look at iraq, the spread into syria, millions of people uh killed, turn into refugees and you know he comes and and he he just he destroys uh the entire narrative about this war on terror. "there is no uh us mission in afghanistan, there is no us mission in iraq, like as if they had any right to be there in the first place, but he he further debunks this, um, there is no uh, due process in guantanamo bay, there's murder, there's killing, there's displacement, there's torture, there's kidnapping, and so for me

one of julian's lawyers they they were asking him to people, the names that are mentioned in the wikileaks publications, where you all these us war crimes and torture have been exposed, are these the same people that carried out the torture and the war crimes? yes, yes they are, it's obviously not every single one of them, but they have supported and upheld that regime, kidnapping and and and rendering people, torturing people, and many people have gone to court and proven in in the eu for example, that they were tortured by the americans and they got compensation for that, obviously it can't make up for what happened to them, but but this shows... the value uh, not just the moral value, but the historic and legal value of what julian assan has done. there you have it, um, speaking of true journalism, uh, one example that comes to mind is julian nassange with the wikileaks story, and of course, you extensibly covered and follow that story. uh, first of all, tell us why is that case very important, why does it matter? julie nassange is a freedom fighter, he's a resistance fighter. and the i

"i care about the people in afghanistan, i care about the victims of american imper

years later, the whistleblower website wikileaks publishes documents that the terrorists of those years. in kurdistan with american agents and officers, of course bas regime was also involved in iraq. their goal was to attack iran. is it true that the baath committee is correct? northwest and of course the resistance against them continues with an iron fist. one example was on 17 september 2017. the army destroys the headquarters of the terrorists in a few minutes. we have no disagreement with anyone regarding the security of the country. the truth is that we did not expect the missile attack of the islamic republic. according to iranian media, the revolutionary guards. the office of the kurdistan democratic party was attacked by a missile in erbil province of iraq, and after 17 september 2017 , the terrorists of kamule were no longer the previous terrorists. it is inappropriate for us to go to war with someone who we know from afar, a thousand times, a thousand times from us, the strongest atefeh godini of the sda news agency, mr. ismail kostri, a member of the national security and fo

be uh hung drawn and quarted literally in terms of uh media exercises and you've seen that with wikileaks you've seen it with uh edward snowden those who do end up whistleblowing and exposing the reality of the system they become uh pariers and they become uh conspiracy theorists uh you know the alleged conspiratists or they're um or they're out it through some personal life uh misdemean, they'll be hunted, and now what we've got is for the people in the west, there's a new kind of legislation that's emerging in britain and in in in america as well where they increasingly reducing our freedoms, because they clocked to the fact that there is a really committed set of people like like mr. wolberg and many others who are smart and aware done their research and understand what's what and they're speaking out and they're also... the fearless, so how do you control? be it this this awakening? well, you do it, try and do it through confusion and putting it through your your propaganda and husper and confusing the people. second, you you dumped them down education so they can't think critically,

the wikileaks founder, julian assange, is set to make his first public statements since being releasedntary assembly report into his detention in belmarsh prison for five years. he had previously spent seven years in the ecuadorian embassy in london after requesting asylum. federal prosecutors in the united states have formally charged a man with the attempted assassination of the former president donald trump. 58—year—old ryan routh is accused of staking out at mr trump's florida golf course for 12 hours earlier this month when secret services agents opened fire after spotting a rifle poking through a fence. the court also heard that routh wrote a note expressing his desire to kill mr trump months ago. he was initially charged with firearms offences. if found guilty, he faces the possibility of life in prison. with growing concerns around the financial reliance of women's football on the men's game, a new global investment group believes it has the solution, and has told the bbc it is "ripping up the rule "book" on football ownership to try and commercialise the women's game. mercury

jurisdictions as possible, and and they they're very um, let me just explain something to you, because wikileaks published something else also uh, which is the um, the vault 7 uh leaks in 2017, now these are documents, not about war crimes per say, but they're about cia technical capabilities, and they didn't charge him with these uh uh disclosures, and i think that they're reserving that in case this case fails, they can just immediately file a new one and then he's still in prison, so i like that shows you how disgusting they are uh you know or for example if he goes to another country they can they can just start the same case all over again so um the future of this case is that he he either stays in prison and dies god forbid um he's liberated and he can stay in england or he has to go back to australia but uh america is not an option and he has said uh he will kill himself if they tell him that he has to go to america that if that you know he has to be extrajited he has told the doctors he has told um uh you know his family that he will take his own and we can't blame him because the americ

famously, we remember what they did in 2016 to try to get trump in power with the troll farms and the wikileaks and the hacking the democratic party and the clinton campaign and all that stuff. so that is 2016 and 2024. in between in 2020, what they did was lev. what they did was this project to create a story that would hopefully knock joe biden out of the running for the democratic presidential election. because donald trump knew biden had the best chance of beating him so he wanted him out. so they ran, the russians ran an influence operation to try to essentially spoil joe biden's chances at winning that nomination. and they went at him by what they thought was his achilles heel. his love for his son hunter. his troubled son hunter. using that, using a father's love for his son against him i think is morally repugnant. it's evil. but it also was really consequential both in hunter's life. it led to the change in lev's life. it led to him going to prison and all this. but that was the origin of it. >> in a few minutes i will talk to lev and his wife. central characters in the show. these doc

back in 2016, it was wikileaks, places where you could see information drop out there.e much harder for them to t ith content creators. i think it definitely sends a chill throughout the system. there's probably case is still ongoing, or things that may unfold on them. definitely, a sense of warning to people to know where they get the resources from and who is paying the bills. >> we have been hearing about for an election interference since 2016. is it worse today? >> actually, for the most part, allountries are struggling, just because of the way the defenses are set up. whether it is tech companies like microsoft doing defensive efforts, working across that ecosystem. look at the u.s. government here, this would have never happened eight years ago. couldn't have gotten organized or even detected in this wy. look at other actions you solve regarding china and iran, discussions of it over the last month. you are seeing three nationstates all trying to do this sort of influence, but being caught in the act. i am hopeful we made a lot of progress the last eight years, r

, jessica, there was, as you'll recall, day before the democratic convention in 2016 spying when wikileaks dumped a whole lot of stuff about the dnc and overshadowed the convention, and everybody published that. >> everyone did publish that. i would actually like a lot of these reporters that are saying they can't bring the material out give a puller explanation. maybe that's the theme of the day, give me a fuller explanation as to why there's a different standard this time than there was in 2016 because donald trump is not being an honest broker in the way he's discussing this now. he so cleary benefited, engaged and encouraged spying in the 20216 election because it was going to work to his benefit. hillary clinton wasn't spying on him or barack obama or anyone else who he thinks is obsessed with him. howard: i want to touch on the issue that has vice president harris most passionate, and that is abortion rights. and she was in georgia on friday, devoted the whole speech to it talking about two cases where where, according to propublica, women died either because they received delayed tr

good reason to believe that it was the russians that hocked into the emails and were releasing the wikileakssay that because at the top of the remarks, donald trump pushed aside this recent indictment. we heard him over the last course of the summer here continue to lay a foundation to claim that the federal government and the justice department and the state prosecutors, the judges, essentially, they are all in it to lay claim to the american electorate before people cast their vote, that this election is unfair, rigged and that there's undue interference, not on the part of the russians, per se, but on the part of democratic prosecutors and department of justice. >> it's a lot to unpack. thank you so much for that. lisa rubin, let's talk about what happened in court today. what was probably triggering a lot of this outburst? >> reporter: it's interesting, because we are so used to donald trump sort of free associating. sometimes even rambling in his public appearances. vaughn made note of the fact that he was talking today at that press conference about a woman who accused him of assault o

. >> and she just found out about it through the wonder of wikileaks donald really is as healthy as aow, the one vladimir putin rights around down i mean, just listening to it, mayor you're laughing. >> there is some uncomfortable cringy moments, but he did break with tradition and became a little more personal. she did give it right back on moments that we can all look back now and say neither of them was actually joking about their position is, is this we'd have to look forward to if they attended look again, i think the campaign has a lot of valid considerations and where they go. >> but here's what i'd say. kamala harris has handled this campaign about as well as ever. i've never seen a candidate do it. her temperament connects with what i think americans are looking for right now. if she goes in there and is herself and maybe a little self-deprecating, a little bit of comedy thrown in and donald trump goes over the edge, which i would predict. i sat there like so many people that didn't or 2016 shocked because no candidate had never acted that way before. i think that contrast wo

there is a version, that it was him, not the mythical russian hackers. was a wikileaks informant andf internal documents about corruption in the democratic party. it turned out that the democratic elite is playing along with clinton and is infringing on another democrat, bernie sanders. our publications and the various hacks that have occurred in the united states in recent years have been committed by a variety of people. hillary clinton, of course, deliberately inflated the scandal to distract attention from the exposure of the falsification of the nomination process. in the summer of 2016, he dropped the barbell unsuccessfully former un general assembly chairman john william ashe. coincidentally , a few days later he was preparing to testify about the illegal financing of hillary clinton's election campaign. a couple of months later , journalist victor thorn allegedly shot himself. he wrote a book about bill clinton's ties to arms dealers and drugs. and a couple of days later , lawyer sean lucas, who was investigating the fraud in favor of hillary in the democratic party, drowned
