I am sure that JA very much wanted to be pardoned and released in the US, but trump did not see value in doing that for some reason. Considering the outcome is to place JA’s freedom at the discretion of Brandon, I don’t think that this was done for JA’s benefit.
I am also confused. My hypothesis is that this is a delicate game of cat and mouse. He might ultimately want to be extradited and pardoned here, but he doesn’t want to be extradited to bad actors to be suicided or locked away in a dark hole for the rest of his natural life.
If I were him I'd do all I can to stay away from the U.S. if I also knew about Pompeo's CIA assassination ideas. No guarantees the new admin would be any better.
Is this good? I’m confused about Assange, does he want to stay locked up where he is?
Never let a kidnapper move you to another location. It's never better for you, and they want to move you for a reason.
I believe this was one of the reasons Trump did not pardon him, he’s safer there perhaps?

We know he did, and I thought perhaps Pres. Trump would have and I wondered why he didn’t. I don’t know.
Oh my, that is right.
