BREAKING: US Senate Intelligence Committee calls editor @JulianAssange to testify. Letter delivered via US embassy in London. WikiLeaks' legal team say they are "considering the offer but testimony must conform to a high ethical standard".

A little odd because JA is wanted by the US Govt for crimes !!
Is he?
Since American jurisprudence contemplates the death penalty for acts of treason, which Assange is accused of committing when he released the Wikileaks material publicly, his argument for requesting asylum in a foreign diplomatic mission is that he fears for his life if Sweden ever decides to send him to the United States.
This might actually be Assange's ticket out of the embassy. He could insist that the meeting be held in Geneva, or some place like that, and then just leave afterward.

The most corrupt part of congress is the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI). The SSCI is the center of the deepest part of the Deep State swamp.
The SSCI never, ever, E.V.E.R… does anything that does not protect and advance the self-interest of the corrupt Washington DC professional political class.
Apparently the SSCI wants to interview WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, in a closed session.
You could slowly drive rail-road spikes through my knee-caps and I still would never concede that that SSCI has a “good” motive here. It’s impossible.

That might be ok, if Assange has his lawyer and a few trusted people there as well, to witness what he says and keep him safe.

This link has a good timeline with a summary of the texts between Ohr and Steele. They discuss an "our guy".
