That's interesting, and I know from the Bezmenov video and commentary on it Barak Obama is supposed to be the prime example of a Marxist infiltrator promoting the rot from the inside.

Except - Obama chose not to prosecute Assange because of potential collateral damage to independent journalism, a well known major concern of Soviet infiltrators (er...). It's only after Trump came to power that his administration got the ball rolling on prosecution and offering Thordarson an immunity deal. It's all in the article.

So what's the contention, that Trump's administration was the result of a Marxist inspired Russian plot to subvert the universities in the 60s? Well, that's a new one.
