A rioter wearing a deeply offensive, anti-Semitic sweatshirt at the US Capitol last week is now under arrest. Newser reports the man was photographed wearing a 'Camp Auschwitz' sweatshirt during the US Capitol siege was taken into custody on Wednesday in Virginia. The garment also featured 'Work brings freedom.' It's a translation of "Arbeit macht frei," the German phrase that appeared on the concentration camp’s entrance. Robert Keith Packer, 56, was arrested in Newport News, where he lives. The government will not be seeking detention for Packer. However, Packer is barred from visiting Washington unless it’s for a court appearance.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will find out Monday whether he can be extradited from the UK to the US. Should the extradition be approved, Assange would face espionage charges over the publication of secret American military documents. But according to Newser, whichever side loses is expected to appeal, which could lead to years more legal wrangling. Stella Moris is Assange's partner and the mother of his two sons. She's appealed to President Trump via Twitter to grant a pardon to Assange before he leaves office. Lawyers for the US government said in their hearing in the fall that Assange's defense team had raised issues that were neither relevant nor admissible.
Former national security adviser John Bolton didn't mince words after US President Donald Trump vetoed the annual bill to fund the US military. Trump's chief complaint with the bill is that it called for the renaming of military bases named after Confederate military figures. The must-pass, $741 billion bill was passed with widespread bipartisan support. According to Business Insider, Bolton told Trump to 'get out of the way,' and said Trump was 'not a conservative.' Trump's former national security adviser also described Trump's 'destructive' veto as a 'purely gratuitous action' and 'selfish.' There's very little you can do to repair your reputation, but for God's sakes, get out of the way of the national security of the US and get out of the way of our efforts to overcome the pandemic.
