Julian Assange Taunts James Comey From His Ecuadorian Prison in London

Assange knows his days are numbered

----


Julian Assange Offers James Comey a Job


During a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee on May 3, Comey was asked whether or not WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange had been charged with any crimes, as well as why he had not been apprehended.

Comey explained that Assange could not be apprehended as long as he was under the protection of the Ecuadorian government ? the South American nation granted him asylum, and he has been living in exile in its London Embassy since 2012 to avoid a Swedish rape charge.

But when Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE) ? also not a WikiLeaks fan ? asked Comey to explain the difference between WikiLeaks and journalism, the former, top G-man held nothing back:

?To my mind it crosses a line when it moves from being about trying to educate a public and instead just becomes about intelligence porn, frankly, just pushing out information about sources and methods without regard to interest.?

Despite Comey's harsh criticisms, however, it appears that Julian Assange bears him no ill will. Within hours of learning that Comey had been fired from his post at the FBI, Assange offered him a job.

"Mr. Comey knows where many bodies are buried. Working for WikiLeaks is fulfilling. James--don't become another lobbyist for Glock or Donkin."
