Yeah, the informants names he purposefully published who were surely executed after will never get to go home. Fuck this guy, sincerely.

This didn’t happen, Wikileaks vetted information before releasing it for exactly this reason.
Name one person.

Must have been a ton of informants he was protecting in the RNC email dump he chose not to release.

IIRC a password providing access to some of the full, unredacted documents was leaked, so despite Wikileaks vetting the documents some names did still get out. It was fairly quickly scrubbed and its believed that nobody was harmed in the end, but it got pretty close.

The US court he was in literally said they hadn’t found any evidence of that. It was a core part of this deal that no harm was found.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has landed in Australia, ending the former fugitive’s decade-long diplomatic saga.
As he stepped off the plane, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, speaking from parliament, welcomed his return.
“Earlier tonight I was pleased to speak to Mr Assange to welcome him home and had the opportunity to ask him about his health and have my first discussion with him,” he said.
Mr Albanese said Assange expressed “praise” for the Australian government’s efforts in returning him home, saying it took patient diplomacy.
Earlier on Wednesday, Assange pleaded guilty to one charge of conspiracy with a sentence of “time already served”, in a deal that concluded the United States’ pursuit of him for more than a decade.
The US had sought Assange’s extradition from the United Kingdom since 2012 over the publication of classified US military intelligence through WikiLeaks.

The prime minister has apparently been pushing to get him out, and has apparently been mentioning him at every meeting with the US. It is what it is.

Yeah, that was some bullshit
