7/9/21 Kevin Gosztola on the Plights of Julian Assange and Daniel Hale - a podcast by Scott Horton

Kevin Gosztola is back with an update on Julian Assange and Daniel Hale, both of whom continue to languish in maximum security prisons for the "crime" of telling the people about the very real crimes of their own governments. Although a UK judge denied the U.S. extradition request in Assange's case, she also granted the Justice Department an appeal of the decision, and ordered that Assange continue to be held until the appeal. It's especially ironic that Assange and Hale are being held under inhumane conditions that are dangerous for their mental health, when the abysmal conditions of U.S. prisons was precisely the British judge's reason for denying Assange's appeal.
