WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is on the verge of being evicted from his hideout at the Ecuadorian embassy in London, according to CNN. A source said Assange could leave “any day now,” subjecting himself to extradition to the United States. CNN reports that the U.S. is pressuring Lenin Moreno, Ecuador’s new president, to kick Assange out. Assange might also be “made to feel so restricted that he might choose to leave on his own,” according to CNN.
