Unlike #Russianhacking or #TrumpRussiaCollusion, there is a legitimate and serious scandal when it comes to Trump's involvement in the #Assange prosecution. The fact that the media hasn't covered it is a travesty multiple times over.

It's an utter abandonment of the free press by the same media that claimed Trump was attacking them.
It's a refusal to go after their supposed nemesis where it would actually hurt him - this could be a scandal equal to or greater than the one that ended the trial of Daniel Ellsberg, the Pentagon Papers whistleblower whose case ended in a mistrial, according to Ellsberg himself.
Worst of all, it's the refusal to reconcile the false narrative peddled for four years that Assange helped Trump, which is belied this very moment by Trump's (corrupt) prosecution of him.
