I recently wrote to my member of the U.S. House of Representatives asking the Representative why that person’s name was not included among the 16 members of Congress from both Parties who had signed a letter to Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, and Antony Blinken, urging the U.S. to cease-and-desist its attempts over many years to get Julian Assange extradicted to the U.S. to face possibly up to 175 years of imprisonment after he has already spent over ten years in prisons in Britain and yet never been convicted, nor even charged, for any alleged crime. I also asked why was that person’s name not among the 8 who had co-sponsored the current H.Res.934, which argues for the same purpose, and I asked “whether you will vote in favor of it when it comes up for a House vote.”
I received a reply on January 9th, which said:
Thank you for reaching out to me regarding your concern over the prosecution of Julian Assange. Freedom of the press is a crucial pillar of our democracy. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
Julian Assange is the founder of the website Wikileaks. In 2010, Wikileaks published hundreds of thousands of documents related to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The United States has indicted Assange, alleging that he committed one count of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion in violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. The indictment alleges that, in March 2010, Assange agreed to assist in “cracking” a password stored on Department of Defense computers to access classified records. Should any legislation related to the prosecution of Assange come before the House of Representatives, I will keep your thoughts in mind.
A free and vibrant press is a necessary safeguard against the erosion of democracy. As your congresswoman, I am committed to protecting the rights of journalists.
I replied:
You are a psychopath, and you think that that’s okay. Assange has been in various forms of imprisonment continuously for over ten years now and not convicted nor even been tried on any criminal charge, and yet you want him to be brought into the U.S. dictatorship to face such charges now as you have just described, for which ten years straight of imprisonment isn’t ALREADY way more than enough to satisfy yourself and your paymasters (Lockheed Martin or whatever — or what then IS your vile and psychopathic motivation in persecuting the world’s greatest champion for democracy and for freedom of the press, and opponent of imperialism and of coups and of other dictatorial stratagems of oppression)?

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

Hola Eric.
Having once met a Correspondence Flak Catcher First Class for a politician, I realized that the Zionists or whoever cared to buy off, bribe, cajole or threaten such people, were the ones I ought to be writing to to try to affect change. Since they do not reveal their contact information I realized that I might as well save the price of a stamp [or pixels] as it leads to nothing but a waste of time and heartbreak to think that anything but lead supplements will bring about systemic change.
I get paid over $190 per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I’d be able to do it but my best friend earns over 15k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless .Heres what i have been doing…

You should pen a letter to ‘The Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith’, as they own your countries senators and representatives.
I think that writing to members of congress is acting on the illusion that they are, in fact, our “representatives”. There is nothing one can do except emigrate.
“There is nothing one can do except emigrate.”
Absolutely, as they have a total monopoly on violence and they rigged the political system.
I have written to Congress over the years. They use fancy words and placate the public and continue to do the bidding of the military industrial complex. I have found it does no good regardless of which party the “representative”, and I use that word loosely, belongs to.
12 H.L. Mencken Quotes on Government, Democracy, and Politicians 1. Every election is a sort of advance auction sale of stolen goods. 2. A good politician is quite as unthinkable as an honest burglar. 3. A politician is an animal which can sit on a fence and yet keep both ears to the ground. 4. Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. 5. Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of jackals by jackasses. 6.
