Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) has devised this chart to the various legal pathways that can result after the High Court hearing in the U.S. appeal against the decision not to extradite Julian Assange.
U.S. prosecutors have five times misled two British courts on key points about Julian Assange’s health as it attempts to overturn a ruling against extraditing him to the United States, report Cathy Vogan and Joe Lauria.
On the eve of the U.S. appeal, a live discussion from St. Pancras Church in London with Deepa Driver, Bjatmar Alexandersson, Andrew Feinstein, Lauri Love, Derek Summerfield, and Chris Williamson. Today 1:30pm EST, 6:30 pm BST.

Tackling the global climate emergency requires a fundamental redistribution of financial resources, writes Aaron White. The U.S. president shows no sign of leading the way.
