The Guardian: “Whether the US justice department continues to pursue the Trump-era charges against the notorious leaker, whose group put out secret information on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Guantánamo Bay, American diplomacy and internal Democratic politics before the 2016 election, will go a long way toward determining whether the current administration intends to make good on its pledges to protect the press.”

“Now Biden is facing a re-energized push, both inside the United States and overseas, to drop Assange’s protracted prosecution.”
