Assange's legal fight to avoid U.S. espionage trial resumes in London

Assange fighting extradition to USJulian Assange resumed his battle in a London court on Monday to avoid extradition to the United States to face criminal charges over the activities of his WikiLeaks website, after months of delay due to the coronavirus lockdown.

The U.S. authorities accuse Australian-born Assange, 49, of conspiring to hack government computers and of violating an espionage law in connection with the release of confidential cables by WikiLeaks in 2010-2011.

Assange, clean-shaven and wearing a suit at Monday’s hearing, formally declined to be extradited to face a superseding indictment issued by U.S. authorities in June.

Chris Wallace Calls Out Fox Hosts for Seemingly Justifying Vigilante Violence: ‘I Don't Think That's Right!’

Chris Wallace calls out FOX for justifying vigilante killingFox News anchor Chris Wallace shut down his Fox News colleagues on Thursday for seemingly attempting to justify and defend vigilante kid Kyle Rittenhouse’s alleged murders during the Kenosha protests, sparking on-air fireworks and loud objections from his colleagues.

Amid ongoing protests in Kenosha over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, the 17-year-old Rittenhouse was charged with first-degree intentional homicide on Wednesday after allegedly killing two protesters and injuring another. Rittenhouse, who has repeatedly posted online in support of “Blue Lives Matter” and President Donald Trump, traveled from Illinois with a long gun to assist other militia types in protecting local businesses from any violence.

On Thursday’s edition of Outnumbered, several co-hosts placed a large share of the blame for Rittenhouse’s allegedly murderous actions on the lack of local law-enforcement officials in the protests against police brutality.

Chris Matthews out at Hardball

As Chris Matthews announced his immediate retirement from MSNBC's "Hardball" Monday over accusations that he made inappropriate comments to women, an emotional scene took place behind the cameras, where Matthews' family and crew watched him say his goodbyes.

"I’m retiring," the veteran host told viewers at the top of his show. "This is the last ‘Hardball’ at MSNBC, and obviously this isn’t for lack of interest in politics. As you can tell, I’ve loved every minute of my 20 years as host of ‘Hardball.’"

Before the taping began, Matthews ducked into the studio without talking to any of the people waiting to appear on his show. As upcoming guests, including Democratic strategist Joe Trippi, gathered with makeup artist Roxanne Williams, Associated Press White House reporter Jonathan Lemire urged everyone assembled to watch Matthews’ opening.

Fox News’ Chris Wallace: Bill Barr ‘Clearly Is Protecting’ Trump

Chris Wallace: Trump has a new fixerReacting to a Fox News interview with Attorney General William Barr that included Barr essentially threatening Democrats who criticize him and justifying the president calling the Mueller probe a “witch hunt,” Fox News anchor Chris Wallace said Friday that Trump now has a new fixer.

In the interview that was aired Friday, Barr told Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer that House Democrats who have accused him of contempt of Congress are discrediting him because they’re likely “concerned about the outcome of a review of what happened during the election.” Furthermore, the attorney general said he wants to see if FBI officials “put their thumb on the scale” during the Russia investigation, especially during the origins of it.

Baby Trump Demands Washington Post, New York Times Be Stripped of Their Pulitzer Prizes

Trump demands NYT and WP have Pulitzers rescindedPresident Trump took to Twitter late Friday to rail against The Washington Post and The New York Times for their coverage of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
