CIA Loses Bid to Throw Out Lawsuit for Violating Rights of Julian Assange’s Visitors at Ecuadorean Embassy: Case Sets Stage for Exposing CIA Clandestine Surveillance of Attorneys and Journalists
This is a case brought by 4 US citizens against the CIA. They are attorneys Margaret Ratner Kunstler and Deborah Hrbek, and journalists John Goetz and Charles Glass. They all visited Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy in the relevant time period ~2017 and claim their 4th amendment rights have been violated. I can't wait to see this trial unfold! The evidence that will come out of this could well mean the end of the DOJ's pursuit of Assange.
You'd hope so, but it's like every decade we have an article going "wow, look at all the fucked up shit the CIA was doing 20 years ago, isn't it great they stopped?
