This was always going to happen.

The charges against him were never going to disappear. And it seemed unlikely that he was going to be secretly bundled out of the UK to safety as part of some covert operation by a friendly government.

We can only hope he receives a fair trial.

Bozec doubt he will be treated fairly
Todays America is a vindicte one
He bought much of this on himself, we can sing his praises for that helicopter footage
We can highlight Hillary Clinton, plus a wrongly confident Democrat party deserved the email dump
No such dump or emails,should have existed
Help Trump, sorry deserves what he gets

Yes, Hillary Clinton is certainly among those baying for Assange's blood.

This will be interesting, If Assange is extradited to the US then it will completely confirm that seeking asylum was the only course of action open to him at the time. He often stated he would be happy to face either Swedish or UK justice if the option of extradition was removed. It wasn't.

It will also be interesting to see if Trump would pardon him given his effusive praise of Assange and Wikileaks during and after the campaign, 141 times it seems.

Hillary probably wants to do to Assange what she did to Gaddafi: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlz3-OzcExI

Difficult to predict how the US will finally put Assange on trial and what sentence may come out of it.

A possibility is - with Trump being unpopular with Mueller-FBI and Trump under wider criticism for Trump's pro-Putin leanings, Trump may be happy to toss the FBI a bone.

That bone being Assange, for the FBI to chew on...
