00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:37,875
Yeah. I really did.
I was, like, "Oh,

I'm gonna be super embarrassed

183

So, you'd looked at

that they wouldn't harm

I'm uniquely situated
to have been the person

753
00:59:12,917 --> 00:59:16,375

Chelsea face to face the most

of Chelsea is.

759
00:59:34,667 --> 00:59:38,041

of that journey ahead of her.

761
00:59:42,250 --> 00:59:46,333

which path that's gonna go,
right?

765
00:59:52,375 --> 00:59:55,000
Because she's been prevented
for the last ten years

766
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,375

experiences that we had

767

to protect the identities of
people who might be in danger

820

Julian Assange,

821
01:02:21,750 --> 01:02:24,375
believes in much more
complete transparency

822
01:02:24,375 --> 01:02:27,333
and he believes that it would
contaminate the evidence,

01:02:27,333 --> 01:02:28,583

if you did redact those names.

825

endangered informants,
