Julian Assange: "Obama 'Corrupted' The Presidency"

Thursday, June 20, 2013

Exactly one year to the day after entering London’s Ecuadorian Embassy, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange lashed out at the Obama administration Wednesday over the White House’s ongoing pursuit of leakers.

 “We’re seeing a shift from Bush to Obama,” insisted Assange. “Bush corrupted the presidency in his executive orders calling for mass seizure of telecommunications records from American companies like Verizon. To really corrupt the presidency you have to bring in an expert. You have to bring in a constitutional scholar. So Obama did it properly.”

The most intriguing fact is that the USA have laws to protect whistleblowers, these are called the false claim act (31 U.S.C §§ 3729–3733; (also known as the “Lincoln Law”, the “Informer’s Act”, or the “Qui Tam Statute”) this is a much older federal law than most people realize. Congress first passed the False Claims Act during the Civil War in 1863, in an attempt to stop dishonest contractors from selling the Union Army faulty supplies and provisions.

The state itself guarantees for the safety of the whistleblower the following is valid:

"Protecting Whistleblowers From Retaliation

Most whistleblowers in qui tam actions are reporting on fraud that has been committed by their employer or boss. If this employer suspends, demotes, threatens, or fires the person for actions related to their whistleblower lawsuit, subsection (h) of the False Claims Act allows whistleblowers to file a separate case against their employer. In retaliation lawsuits, any damages recovered are paid directly to the whistleblower. No percentage will go to the government."

So this means the USA are breaking their own laws on behalf of the fact that they are exposed to brake laws and commit crimes to humanity. 2 party justice - in this normal language this is called dictatorship without a justice system that works.

And now you know the reason why the USA cannot ask the UK to deliver Assange to them for treaty.  If they would they would immediately fall under this law - and - so they use Sweden as puppet to accuse Assange for sexual crimes. And Sweden is helping them out willingly. 

Bradley Manning is imprisoned because his military status.  For Ed Snowden, they will probably also send out some killers - or worse- a bunch of bad ass lawyers.

Why do we never hear anyone mention the False Claims Act, even attorneys who practice in this law?  More than a few of lawyers attending their Qui Tam conferences in D.C. when candidate Obama was just one of many running in the Democratic Party believe that he made it clear he understands this law (not all attorneys do) which, of course, makes his actions all the more disappointing. Alan Grayson practiced qui tam law before he became a congressman. His most famous case was Custer Battles, but he hasn't brought it up either.
