The Assange Case Isn’t About National Security, It’s About Narrative Control
❖
Julian Assange once said, “The overwhelming majority of information is classified to protect political security, not national security.”
As someone whose life’s work before his imprisonment was combing through documents of an often classified nature, he’d have been in a prime position to know. He’d have seen time and time again how a nation’s citizenry are not under the slightest threat from the secret information in the documents that had been leaked to him from around the world, but that it could damage the reputation of a politician or a government or its military.

NRA Bankruptcy Would Mean ‘Haven for Wrongdoers,’ N.Y. Warns
Bloomberg 21 mins ago Neil Weinberg and David Voreacos
(Bloomberg) The National Rifle Association’s bankruptcy filing should be dismissed because it was part of a brazen attempt to escape legitimate oversight in the NRA’s home state of New York, a lawyer for the state said in his closing argument in a trial on Monday.
An attorney for the gun rights group followed by accusing the state of attempting a political hit job. “We have the right to exist,” he told a federal bankruptcy judge in Dallas.
The judge is weighing requests to dismiss the NRA’s filing, appoint a trustee to run the NRA while it’s in bankruptcy or install an examiner to look into allegations of corruption and mismanagement made by New York Attorney General Letitia James.
