We just want to be absolutely clear about who hurts this country more.  It\u2019s not him.&#8221;<\/em><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>TUCKER CARLSON, FOX NEWS: If you\u2019ve watched the coverage  of this story today on television, you likely came away with the  understanding that Julian Assange is some form of Russian spy, who is in  trouble because he stole classified documents from the United States  government. But that\u2019s factually wrong. It\u2019s not true. Saying so isn\u2019t a  defense of Assange. We\u2019re not here to promote him, or excuse any number  of things he\u2019s said over the years that we disagree with. But just so  it\u2019s clear: Whatever his sins, Assange did not steal documents from the  US government. He did not hack the DNC\u2019s servers, or break into John  Podesta\u2019s gmail account. There is no proof he is working for the Russian  government, or ever has. Assange has never been charged with any of  that, and wasn\u2019t today, no matter what they tell you.<\/p><p>\u00a0<br> If you\u2019re upset about the theft of classified documents from the US  government, and there\u2019s reason to be, we already know who did it: A  22-year-old Army Private named Bradley Manning, now called Chelsea. In  2013, Manning pleaded guilty to stealing secret material, and got 35  years in prison. A few years later, Barack Obama commuted Manning\u2019s  sentence. This allowed Manning to leave jail decades early, go back on  TV as a commentator, and run for political office. So if your real  concern is America\u2019s national security, you ought to be angry at Barack  Obama. And yet, strangely, nobody is.\u00a0 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>View the complete article including video and links at:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2019\/04\/11\/tucker_carlson_what_was_julian_assanges_crime_he_embarrassed_everyone_in_power_humiliated_hillary_clinton.html\">https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2019\/04\/11\/tucker_carlson_what_was_julian_assanges_crime_he_embarrassed_everyone_in_power_humiliated_hillary_clinton.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RealClear Politics, by Ian Schwartz &#8212; April 11, 2019 Excerpt: &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.. &#8220;The guardians of speech are now its enemies,&#8221; the FNC host said. &#8220;The people charged with policing power are now colluding with it.
