Julian Assange is safe...for now

On this episode of Direct Impact with Rick Sanchez, we take a look at the recent UK High Court decision to delay a potential extradition to the United States of Wikileaks Founder Julian Assange. Assange has been held for years in a UK prison after a long-term stay at the Ecuadoran Embassy in London. Now in poor health and with extradition all but inevitable, Assange’s lawyers have pulled out all the stops to defend him from extradition, and all of the consequences of rotting in a US prison. Joining us to discuss the implications of a stay on extradition is former CIA Whistleblower and host of “The Whistleblowers” John Kiriakou. Don’t miss it!
