Hindustan Times  

Days after interviewing Russian President Vladimir Putin, Tucker Carlson spoke to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's wife Stella after conclusion of a two-day of crucial hearing on his extradition. Tucker Carlson speaks to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's wife Stella after conclusion of a two-day of crucial hearing on his extradition. “And you know, Mike Pompeo's ability to move around Washington without consequence, I don't think is because of his attractiveness to the Washington circles, but because there he's seen as a dangerous person.” “We know the story about Julian and the murder plot because people within his organization said that he had lost the plot, that he had become obsessed with Julian, that he wanted to kill Julian, and that he was discussing it with the White House,” she added. Slamming the UK government for acting as a “lap dog” to the US, Stella told Carlson that the European Court of Human Rights "should stop an extradition if the UK finds against him, but it's not a given".
