U.S. authorities have prepared charges to seek the arrest of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, according to CNN.
The reported action follows a lengthy investigation started in 2010 into the Wikileaks founder and his organization by the U.S. Justice Department, after former U.S. Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning (now Chelsea Manning) gave WikiLeaks thousands of U.S. cables and a video of military firing at civilians in Afghanistan.
“We are going to step up our effort and already are stepping up our efforts on all leaks,” he said. “This is a matter that’s gone beyond anything I’m aware of. We have professionals that have been in the security business of the United States for many years that are shocked by the number of leaks and some of them are quite serious. So yes, it is a priority. We’ve already begun to step up our efforts and whenever a case can be made, we will seek to put some people in jail.”
Sessions makes this announcement as the CIA is also seeking justice against the insider that leaked documents to WikiLeaks that were published as part of “Vault 7.”
The potential prosecution of Assange isn’t sitting well with many in President Trump’s base, including popular author Mike Cernovich.
“We will be holding massive protests if this happens,” tweeted Cernovich.

This is a deep state operation and for all practical purposes an assassination. No! https://t.co/D1Ft6EbRL9
