I really never thought we would see the day where Assange was freed. Why? I'm not sure but this is what I think and have heard others say.

1. The US had more to lose than gain by going to trial

2. The US wasn't going to look good coming out of a trial

3. Biden's team advised to get ahead of Trump by taking Assange off the board(maybe a stretch)

What do you think? I'm sure there are other theories. Regardless, I'm very happy for Assange and his family. What has been done to this man is evil. Exposing the crimes of the elite is journalism. What we typically see called journalism is propaganda. Assange was central to exposing the empire's evil actions. Those that attacked him for exposing Hillary Clinton's dirty laundry should be marked. They are state shills. They are not journalists or advocates for democracy. They support the permanent state machine.
