Julian Assange is a free man for the first time in over a decade.

The fact that he was ever behind bars in the first place makes a mockery of the West’s justice system. Assange, a journalist, was held in a British maximum security prison for committing the “crime” of holding the powerful to account and exposing their actual crimes for the whole world to see.

But that’s over now. Assange is back in his home country of Australia, and as fate would have it, so is Tucker Carlson.

From Tucker’s speech:

“Anybody who knows anything about that case and believes that Assange should still be in prison is your enemy, by the way, and the enemy of human freedom and flourishing. It was monstrous that he spent 12 years locked away for exposing other people’s crimes.”
