WikiLeaks informant released from prison


A court in Virginia ordered the release of WikiLeaks Chelsea Manning from custody due to the fact that there was no need for her testimony in the case concerning this organization and its founder Julian Assange.  


Manning, whose name was Bradley before the sex change, has been detained since last May due to her refusal to answer questions from the jury in this case.  Judge Anthony Trang explained his decision by the fact that the jury had completed its work and its testimony was no longer needed.  The trend also ordered the WikiLeaks informant to pay a fine of $ 256 thousand for failure to comply with a court order.  On Wednesday, American media reported that Manning tried to commit suicide while in a penitentiary in Alexandria (Virginia), after which she was hospitalized.

She had previously stated that she refused to provide the jury with information for ethical reasons.  Manning emphasized that she does not intend to cooperate with investigators who are involved in this matter.

US authorities arrested Bradley Manning, an ordinary first-class ground force in 2010, for transferring over 700,000 military and diplomatic documents, as well as video files related to the US military operation in Iraq, to WikiLeaks.  This was the largest secret information leak in American history at that time.

In August 2013, Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison.  In conclusion, he changed gender to female and name to Chelsea.  In January 2017, Chelsea Manning was pardoned by decision of the 44th U.S. President Barack Obama.  In May 2017, she was released.

  Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed   global warming was "boiling the oceans,"   has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the  World Economic Forum summit  in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees."
