  • His lawyer in Sweden to help him avoid the rape charges extradition who got into the embassy as his lawyer and secretly got pregnant twice and had two children while Assange was in an embassy annoying everyone… That married him in 2022.

    The only good thing about her is that she doesn’t sound like a Russian operative like Assange and whatever the fuck happened to WikiLeaks.

    In the summer of 2016, as WikiLeaks was publishing documents from Democratic operatives allegedly obtained by Kremlin-directed hackers, Julian Assange turned down a large cache of documents related to the Russian government, according to chat messages and a source who provided the records.

    WikiLeaks declined to publish a wide-ranging trove of documents — at least 68 gigabytes of data — that came from inside the Russian Interior Ministry, according to partial chat logs reviewed by Foreign Policy.

    In the months leading up to the 2016 U.S. presidential election, WikiLeaks published tens of thousands of potentially damaging emails about Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and her campaign, information the U.S. intelligence community believes was hacked as part of a Kremlin-directed campaign. Assange’s role in publishing the leaks sparked allegations that he was advancing a Russian-backed agenda.





  • Well there’s cost. Think about how many outlets in an office or home.

    You may not understand the engineering of “UL” or safe switches because they would have to have full current of a short going through them, you have arcing, lifetime toggles, the ozone weakening the molded plastic, etc.

    With most outlets (receptacles) there is a solid copper bar that goes from the wall wires to the part that pushes against the prongs of the plug. With a switch it’s slightly more complicated and would you only break the hot? What if someone wired outlet backwards?

    Sure you could make every plug involve a fuse, circuit breaker, arc fault, GFCI, and a switch. And a USB transformer and nightlight.

    It could help though in many homes if you had only one outlet wired to a switch, and could help with parasitic current draws of almost everything modern.


  • But over half of them support Putin.

    Just like the US citizens deserve the hellscape Trump will bring. Just like UK citizens deserve poverty and empty grocery stores for their Brexit vote.

    Quit pretending these country citizens shouldn’t be condemned to the hell the tacitly approved of. It doesn’t matter if one Russian or one Texan doesn’t support their dictator, enough of their neighbors do. So suffer for your country and for the sins of your neighbors. They didn’t do enough to stop it.









  • We do have at least a hypothetical check on people like Trump, it’s supposed to be the other party. Sadly the DNC is corrupt and pathetic.

    In 2016, Hillary and DNC signed an agreement so DNC would get a huge chunk of her campaign money, so they cheated and helped Hillary win the primary system. The exact same thing is happening again and the Biden campaign just signed a similar agreement a few months ago.

    The people to blame here when Trump wins again will be DNC idiots again.

    Certainly this country could find anyone with a pulse that isn’t 80 years and either senile or crazy.


  • The Washington Post said that he was “managing logistics and support for a six-person team that rented a sailboat under false identities and used deep-sea diving equipment to place explosive charges on the gas pipelines.” The Ukrainian official “took orders from more senior Ukrainian officials,” who reported to Ukrainian top military commander Valery Zaluzhny.

    The newspaper pointed out that the Ukrainian colonel, 48, “did not act alone and he did not plan the operation.” As the Washington Post noted, Chervinsky in a written statement denied his involvement in the Nord Streams sabotage. The newspaper emphasized that the information about Chervinsky’s role in the Nord Streams explosions “contradicts [Ukrainian President Vladimir] Zelensky’s public denials that his country was involved” in the sabotage.

    On April 21, the Ukrainian Security Service announced that Chervinsky had been charged under the article on abuse of power. According to the investigation, the Ukrainian military official, together with other persons, arbitrarily decided to carry out a so-called special operation to seize a Russian military aircraft. On April 25, a Kiev court arrested Chervinsky for two months without bail. In May, the court ruled to live him under arrest.
