Contents
Chelsea Manning
In 2018, Cassandra Fairbanks arranged the unexpected appearance of Chelsea Manning at what The Washington Post headlined as "a far-right pro-Trump bash".[2]
Julian Assange
In 2020, Cassandra Fairbanks submitted evidence to the legal team defending WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in his London extradition hearing, and posted audio online of a September 2019 phone call to her from Arthur Schwartz, a conservative consultant with close ties to Richard Grenell, US Ambassador to Germany.

Fairbanks said:
- “I did not agree our conversation was off record, though Schwartz did tell me not to tell anyone about the call.
- “Schwartz repeatedly insisted that I stop advocating for WikiLeaks and Assange, telling me that a ‘pardon isn’t going to fucking happen'. He knew very specific details about a future prosecution against Assange that were later made public and that only those very close to the situation then would have been aware of. He told me that it would be the ‘Manning’ case that he would be charged with and that it would not involve the Vault 7 publication or anything to do with the DNC.
- "He also told me that they would be going after Chelsea Manning.”[3]
Millie Weaver
Fairbanks shared a fundraiser on Twitter for Millie Weaver.

I did not hear most of this because, having adjourned to 4.30pm, the court re-adjourned earlier than advertised, while Julian’s dad John Shipton, the musician M.I.A. and I were away having a coffee. |
