Rohrabacher, avec Assange dans sa musette ?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

Mercredi, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 r\u00e9publicain de Californie Dana Rohrabacher a \u00e9t\u00e9 rendre visite \u00e0 Julian Assange, l’homme de WikiLeaks<\/em>, toujours cloitr\u00e9 dans son extraordinaire odyss\u00e9e, \u00e0 l’ambassade de l’Equateur \u00e0 Londres. Cette visite \u00e9tait en elle-m\u00eame remarquable, puisque la premi\u00e8re d’une personnalit\u00e9 politique officielle US de ce niveau. D’autre part, Rohrabacher est connu comme un maverick rarissime<\/a><\/em>, assez ami de Poutine et pas vraiment ennemi<\/a> d’Assad, c’est dire… Rohrabacher avait rencontr\u00e9 Trump apr\u00e8s l’\u00e9lection et certains avaient esp\u00e9r\u00e9 un poste diplomatique important pour lui. Peine perdue…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Par contre, Rohrabacher rapporte des nouvelles qu’il juge importantes d’Assange. Il estime que certaines r\u00e9v\u00e9lations sous forme de documents permettraient d’\u00e9claircir d\u00e9finitivement l’affaire des \u00e9coutes du DNC (direction du parti d\u00e9mocrate), qui lan\u00e7a le Russiagate <\/em>en juillet 2016. De ce point de vue, estime Rohrabacher, ce devrait \u00eatre un argument d\u00e9cisif pour que les USA abandonnent toute poursuite contre Assange, ce qui permettrait \u00e0 ce dernier de sortir de l’ambassade d’Equateur sans crainte d’\u00eatre extrad\u00e9 vers les USA.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

On ignore ce que Rohrabacher rapporte de Londres et lui-m\u00eame semble encore l’ignorer puisqu’il s’agirait d’une promesse d’Assange de fournir certains documents et pi\u00e8ces. Quoi qu’il en soit, si effectivement Rohrabacher parvenait \u00e0 mettre en route un d\u00e9bat pour une sorte de \u00ab\u00a0pardon\u00a0\u00bb de Washington pour toutes les offenses abominables commises par WikiLeaks<\/em>, nous serions bons pour une nouvelle phase sanglante et parsem\u00e9e de crises de nerfs diverses de la pol\u00e9mique-Russiagate<\/em> \u00e0 \u00ab\u00a0D.C.-la-folle\u00a0\u00bb. Trump serait \u00e0 nouveau au centre du jeu puisque Rohrabacher a dit que si les documents \u00e9taient r\u00e9ellement d’une tr\u00e8s grande importance, il les remettrait directement au pr\u00e9sident.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Le site The DailyCaller<\/em> (TheDC<\/em>) a obtenu une interview exclusive de Rohrabacher, qu’il publie le 17 août 2017. (Le titre original est « EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Rohrabacher Says Assange Could Be Pardoned For Info About DNC Leak Source<\/em> ».) Nous l’avons modifi\u00e9 pour des raisons techniques.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Rohrabacher Meets Assange & Consequences<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher met with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange Wednesday in an effort to obtain information about the source of a leak of Democratic officials’ emails.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Rohrabacher told The Daily Caller in an exclusive interview Thursday that Assange is hoping to leave the Ecuadorian embassy in London where he is currently in asylum, and that during the meeting they explored \u00ab\u00a0what might be necessary to get him out.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The congressman told TheDC that \u00ab\u00a0if [Assange] is going to give us a big favor, he would obviously have to be pardoned to leave the Ecuadorian embassy.\u00a0\u00bb Assange took asylum in the embassy in August 2012 after facing sexual assault charges in Sweden. The Justice Department also reportedly<\/a> wants to charge Assange for helping Edward Snowden, a former NSA analyst, leak thousands of classified documents.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0He has information that will be of dramatic importance to the United States and the people of our country as well as to our government,\u00a0\u00bb Rohrabacher said. \u00ab\u00a0Thus if he comes up with that, you know he’s going to expect something in return. He can’t even leave the embassy to get out to Washington to talk to anybody if he doesn’t have a pardon. Obviously there is an issue there that needs to be dealt with, but we haven’t come to any conclusion yet.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The U.S. intelligence community has said Russia was involved in the hacking and leaking of emails from the Democratic National Committee during the presidential election. Assange has continued to maintain that Russia was not WikiLeaks’ source and has long maintained that he would never reveal a source.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Rohrabacher has been maligned by opponents for being too favorable to the Russian government, and was called \u00ab\u00a0Putin’s favorite congressman\u00a0\u00bb by Politico<\/a>. He told TheDC that these attacks are due to people’s efforts to \u00ab\u00a0obscure information that would be damaging to their political positions.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0They can’t fool the American people all the time, especially if there’s some dramatic information that would expose this monstrous fraud that has been perpetrated on the American people and thus undermining an elected president and his ability to take the responsibility given to him by the voters,\u00a0\u00bb Rohrabacher stated.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The California congressman met with Assange along with conservative journalist Charles C. Johnson. Johnson is frequently attacked as just an internet troll, but he is well-connected to several key political figures. He told TheDC that he arranged the meeting between Rohrabacher and Assange.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Rohrabacher told TheDC that Johnson \u00ab\u00a0stepped in as a friend\u00a0\u00bb to help him on his overseas trip. The congressman went to London on his own dime and Rohrabacher is the first U.S. representative to visit Assange.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

A pardon of Assange would have to come directly from President Donald Trump, and Rohrabacher told TheDC, \u00ab\u00a0I can’t remember if I have spoken to anybody in the White House about this.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The congressman has yet to receive the information that has been promised to him by Assange, but he said he is confident he will receive it.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0If I had to bet on it, I would bet that we are going to get the information that will be mind-boggling and of major historical significance,\u00a0\u00bb Rohrabacher said. He said if it is significant enough, he will bring it directly to Trump.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0And there has already been some indication that the president will be very anxious to hear what I have to say if that is the determination that I make,\u00a0\u00bb Rohrabacher added.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Trump has continued to maintain that someone other than Russia could have been the source of the leaked emails.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
