@wikileaks When can we hope to see suspected rapist Assange board the plane to the U.S. now that @BarackObama has granted Manning clemency?— (((Bock McMillan)))™ (@BockMcMillan) January 18, 2017
Julian Assange, suspected rapist, who has chosen to be in self-elected isolation at the Ecuadorian embassy in London for a longer period than he would probably have been jailed if he had instead chosen to stand trial for his alleged crimes in Sweden, recently offered to go to the United States if President Obama granted clemency for Chelsea Manning.
Well, now that President Obama has done just that, and Manning will be set free in May 2017, it remains to be seen if Assange will keep his promise. I most certainly will not hold my breath.
