Julian Assange's fiancee Stella Moris tweeted the following just now:
The WikiLeaks publisher, 50, who is being held on remand in the maximum-security jail while fighting extradition to America, was left with a drooping right eyelid, memory problems and signs of neurological damage. The stroke happened at the time of High Court appearance via video link in October.
He believes the mini-stroke was triggered by the stress of the ongoing US court action against him, and an overall decline in his health as he faces his third Christmas behind bars. A transient ischaemic attack, the interruption of the blood supply to the brain, can be a warning sign of a full stroke. Julian Assange has since had an MRI scan and is now taking anti stroke medication.
Stella Moris said: "Julian is struggling and I fear this mini-stroke could be the precursor to a more major attack. It compounds our fears about his ability to survive the longer this long legal battle goes on."

Update: Some activists questioned why this was released just now and not before the final decision on Friday. The simple answer is that he just had an MRI and this information only now became available to both Stella and the Assange defense.
At times I don't understand how much more evident censorship in modern history can be. Bruno Giordano, who was burned at the stake is one such example. For 2021 this orchestrated non-sense should be the shame of the masses that believe there is any reason this man/hero of our time should be kept captive.
