Kyle Anzalone from AntiWar.com and the Libertarian Institute joins Bob to discuss the timeline of Wikileaks and why the US government disliked Julian Assange.

This week, Assange was offered his freedom in exchange for admitting to espionage charges, but what exactly did he do? And how can the US prosecute Assange when he is not a US citizen? Bob and Kyle review the facts, including how Wikileaks began, the information they leaked, and the reasons behind Julian Assange’s arrest.

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard.

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
