The court formally ordered the extradition of the WikiLeaks founder to the United States, but it still needs approval from a British cabinet minister and his defense can appeal to her directly.

LONDON — A London court on Wednesday ordered the extradition of the WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to the United States, the latest but not the last step in a long-running battle in British courtrooms.
The order to extradite Mr. Assange, who is being sought by the United States in connection with charges under the Espionage Act, must be signed by the British home secretary, Priti Patel. Mr. Assange has four weeks to appeal to her directly, and he also has the right to take his case to the English High Court after she issues her decision.
Wednesday’s court decision, delivered in a brief hearing that saw Mr. Assange dial in by video call from a prison in London, was the latest blow to his attempts to fend off his extradition. Protesters, as they have done throughout his legal battle, gathered outside the courtroom in central London.

Stolen 2016 emails
Date: July and October 2016
The Leaks: On July 22, 2016, WikiLeaks released nearly 20,000 Democratic National Committee emails and on Oct. 7, 2016, it released another 2,000 emails from Clinton campaign manager John Podesta.
The Revelations: The emails, which U.S. intelligence later determined had been stolen by hackers working for the Russian government, appeared to show that the DNC had favored Clinton over her rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Among the damaging information in Podesta's emails was the news that then-acting DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile had given the Clinton campaign debate questions in advance.

His crime: exposing US crimes...
Good to see an intelligent thought in here.
The same Wikileaks that instructed one of the party's to not do shit for Black people or promise anything?
This the same guy?
This the same guy?
Initially yeah but he start teaming up with Trump that was his downfall.
Let's be real, the main reason he is in there is for exposing US global crimes, period!
He better head to Dubai or someplace...
That’s true but when he started teaming up with trump He became a big hypocrite
That Trump issue wasn't his crime, though.
They got an Albino cell block in prison now?
Your Trump loving ass is on the same page.... coon
No but he killed his credibility
That doesn't matter, this is a larger issue about the prosecuting of whistle-blowers.....
You still cry every night that white mommy got exposed breh?They got an Albino cell block in prison now?
Your Trump loving ass is on the same page.... coon
No no no no no in his case that got thrown out the window when he started fucking with Trump.
You don't understand, that affects all whistle blowers in the future; you're only thinking one person. I'm thinking about the future of whistle blowing, & how the US can put you in prison for that, for telling the truth about US crimes.
