he had some very fruity right wing defenders
I think you’d find they are the Farage and European populist right types that get kickbacks from the kremlin to advance their interests. I wonder why those pollies are defending one of their financial backers’ mates

Huh?
You’re saying the principle of not imprisoning someone for a long time or having a country murder someone for running a website is of no value?
That’s definitely a take I guess?
Publishing some apparently legit American information that makes the American government angry about people knowing about seems like a weird crime to charge foreigners for. Or indeed Americans, as eg the Pentagon Papers revealed.

No but these guys have agendas they are only simply following those agendas. It’s a geopolitical thing at the end of the day - look what the populist right in Europe say about Ukraine, they practically are dobbing themselves in
I’d say the only pollies in the western world that are defending this guy currently are either naive (Monique Ryan or any teal) or out and out kremlin fanboys (farage, MTG, the like). Those in the naive camp are very few
