Kennedy, while expressing his relief over Assange's release, posted on X (formerly Twitter): “I am overjoyed. He's a generational hero.”Kennedy was quick to point out the broader implications of Assange's guilty plea. According to Kennedy, Assange's deteriorating health meant that remaining in prison could have led to his death, citing, “Julian had to take this. Kennedy voices for the release of another two whistleblowers, Edward Snowden and Ross Ulbrich. Free Ross Ulbricht to show our commitment to transactional freedom,” he posted.
