Assange's Lawyer: Sweden Acted Improperly In Probe : NPR

A former Swiss banker has passed on documents allegedly detailing tax evasion attempts by hundreds of business leaders, politicians and celebrities to the whistleblowing website WikiLeaks . Rudolf Elmer, an ex-employee of Swiss-based private bank Julius Baer, handed over two CDs containing the data to Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks founder, at a press conference in London on Monday. The disks are thought to contain details of 2,000 individuals. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/europe/2011/01/201111716474682302.html

Feds Subpoena Twitter Seeking Information on Ex-WikiLeaks Volunteer | Threat Level | Wired.com

The U.S. Justice Department has served Twitter with a subpoena seeking information on an Icelandic lawmaker who has worked with WikiLeaks and its founder Julian Assange, the lawmaker told Threat Level on Friday.
Further evidence that Julian Assange ’s relationship with WikiLeaks’ UK partner the Guardian has not been all sweetness and light has emerged in the new issue of Vanity Fair magazine. The article by Sarah Ellison claims that the Australian, currently on bail awaiting extradition to Sweden over rape allegations, threatened to sue the London paper after it tried to publish the US embassy cables without his say-so. Assange is portrayed as volatile and high-handed in his dealings not only with the Guardian , but with two other ‘partner;’ newspapers, the New York Times and Der Spiegel . Ellison recounts how the Guardian first went into partnership with Assange last summer after tracking him down following the release of the video 'Collateral Murder' by WikiLeaks. After agreeing to publish material along with the New York Times , executives at the Guardian were surprised to learn that Assange had asked the German paper Der Spiegel to join them in publishing leaked documents. http://www.theweek.co.uk/73399,people,news,julian-assange-threatened-to-sue-the-guardian-over-wikileaks-leak

In the wake of the recent WikiLeaks document dump, Representative Ron Paul (R-Texas), the self-styled libertarian crusader who's spent the past half-decade building up a massive grassroots following, has emerged as a principal voice in support of the transparency that WikiLeaks has provided. In a speech on the House floor yesterday, Paul held forth at length on the controversy.

Punish the Whistleblowers The Obama administration has already charged more people — six — under the Espionage Act for alleged mishandling of classified information than all past presidencies combined. (Prior to Obama, there were only three such cases in American history.)
Popular Texas Republican Congressman Ron Paul is no stranger to breaking with his party, but in a recent television appearance the libertarian-leaning Rep. went even further than any member of Congress in defending whistleblower website WikiLeaks. Speaking to Fox Business host Judge Napolitano on Thursday about recent revelations at the Federal Reserve, Paul’s typical candor showed through. “What we need is more WikiLeaks about the Federal Reserve,” he said.
