Quite a collection of morons on this comment section.
Really? I've only seen you, so far. Are there more Trump-thrall in here a-typin' up some sick burns, Paul?
I don't know if you realize it, but your comment history actually says more about you than it does about other people. Funny how you seem to think you are qualified to judge how smart people are.

Okay, let's walk through this one slow. But to avoid confusion, let's just stipulate from the start that we're going to wind up with Grenell -- the ambassador to Germany -- possibly leaking classified information about Assange to right-wing media hitman Arthur Schwartz, who in turn leaked it to Fairbanks.
Actually, The Constitution actually has been held to apply to non-citizens on foreign soil.
The First Amendment prevents the government from censoring noncitizens’ speech or suppressing the practice of their religion. The Fourth Amendment protects them against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Fifth Amendment ensures that noncitizens’ property can only be taken by the government for a public use, and only if just compensation is paid.Should a noncitizen be charged with a crime, he has exactly the same Fifth and Sixth Amendment procedural rights as a citizen, including the right to a jury trial, the right to counsel, and protection against self-incrimination. If convicted, the Eighth Amendment prevents the government from subjecting aliens to “cruel and unusual punishment” in exactly the same ways as it does with citizens.
Ta, Liz.
Dear ShitferBrains-No one gives a flying fuck what you think.
keeping the defendant in a glass cage separate from his counsel and barred from addressing the court directly is ... bizarre.
Well, there's the Eichmann precedent. Not that I'm making comparisons

Funny enough, the same could broadly be said of centrism.
Yes I am!

That is for non citizens on American soil. No one is disputing that.
Assange is an Australian citizen who was operating on Swedish soil. Then hid in the Ecuadorian embassy, which is Ecuadorian soil.
1st A does not apply to any of that.
It certainly does apply to our government if our government wants to arrest him and extradite him to the US.
This always happens eventually when you go to work for the invaders.
