Kennedy Jr. &#8212; the son of Robert Kennedy and nephew of former U.S. President John F. Kennedy &#8212; took to X, formerly Twitter, to express his gratitude towards WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for exposing the U.S. government\u2019s controversial efforts related to Monsanto\u2019s Roundup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kennedy, a Democratic presidential candidate, highlighted the significant role Assange played in revealing the U.S. government\u2019s alleged corrupt practices in promoting Monsanto\u2019s toxic Roundup globally. &nbsp;He emphasized the debt environmentalists owe to Assange for his fearless revelations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assange\u2019s revelations have consistently stirred global debates. &nbsp;Assange\u2019s previous exposures, such as the release of classified military documents and diplomatic cables, led to his potential extradition to the U.S., a move that has been controversially ratified by the U.K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His supporters view him as an anti-establishment hero who has been persecuted for exposing U.S. war crimes and crimes against humanity. . &nbsp;The recent rally in the Wistaverse metaverse, organized to galvanize global support against his potential extradition, further underscores the global attention his case has garnered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a related note, Elon Musk recently conducted a Twitter poll, in December 2022, asking if Assange, along with whistleblower Edward Snowden, should be pardoned. &nbsp;A significant 80% of respondents voted in favor of the pardon, highlighting the widespread public support for both figures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the U.S., Robert F.
