He was released after the Mueller report and not before. I just find the timing interesting.

Released him. He had been saying for months he was going to. That is why the Police were standing by. He released him, Police arrested him.

Proper procedure.

The Wikileaks founder just announced this is tied in to Roger Stone. You do remember Roger Stone don’t you? He has been indicted. Why do you think Jerome Coursi was crying about going to jail?

Do you think just because the Mueller investigation was shut down this is over? The US will be in Court this afternoon to extradite him. I just received that news flash on my IPad.
