That means they know Biden is done. Assange has a dead-man’s switch and I have a feeling this is going to be the trigger for it. If extradited to a United States where Trump has the power, they know he will be pardoned. He is a prisoner of war - in the UK, it is a death sentence. They are NOT under our control.
If Trump pardons Assange prior to him being brought here, there will be no way out for him.
Also - the “Judge” is working hard to frame a “suicide” mentality in Assange: “I am satisfied the procedures described by the US will not prevent Mr Assange from finding a way to commit suicide and for this reason I have decided extradition would be oppressive by reason of mental harm and I order his discharge."
if Trump admin proceeded on the pardon post-haste, and called on him to be released, and condemned UK for holding him as a Soviet Union style political prisoner, then if they were to do that to him it would play right into that accusation giving it full substance
the thing is that he's in their hands so this might be the best that can be done for him at this point - to start putting pressure on UK to release him because he's no longer sought by US for any charges and should be a free man

if Assange was pardoned by Trump then UK would purely be holding onto a political prisoner - Soviet Union or CCP style
In which case they’d promptly “suicide” him as soon as possible.
nothing to stop them from doing that now
