> Assange will face a trial like everyone else

It's worth noting that Manning, his alleged co-conspirator in this thing, was declared guilty by Obama, in public, before her trial ever began (when she was, under the law, to be presumed innocent). She was also tortured in jail prior to conclusion of the trial, to such an extent that she attempted suicide twice.

The extradition is only rational, legal, and judicially legitimate if he can be expected to receive a fair trial and not be tortured before/during/after. None of these assumptions hold true in the United States, as we both know.

"was declared guilty by Obama, in public, before her trial ever began "

That's not how it works. Biden made similar public declarations about Rittenhouse, who was subsequently found not guilty.

Now, none of them should be talking about, but that they did does not imply a miscarriage of justice.

The extradition is legitimate, and Assange will receive a fair trial in the US where the whole world will see the evidence against him.

The points you make are orthogonal to the fact that there is no way that Assange will receive a fair trial in the USA.
