Will Trump pardon Assange?

Jimmy Dore giving props to Tucker Carlson lol! He's giving props not because he likes Carlson but as he says - Carlson is the only one in mainstream media who is reporting accurate information.

I didn't listen to the whole thing.  But it seemed like Tucker was saying Assange didn't steal anything, which in my book is not exactly true.  Maybe it's all the fake news, but my understanding was Assange would be charged with conspiracy for assisting the acquisition and transmission of classified material.  It's unproven, but I'm not clear on what the "true story" is that isn't being reported.

I think Fox News may have reported that, itself...also noting that Assange was somewhat deliberately not being charged with the publication or anything that could run afoul of infringing on freedom of the press.

What Assange did was no different then every other media outlet that leaked info the past few years

I think this is the second or third time I've mentioned it in this thread - that's not what he will allegedly be charged with.  He supposedly provided technical expertise/software to help Manning steal and transmit the data.  THAT is felony conspiracy.
