Wikileaks founder Julian Assange was arrested at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London late last week, with the US charging him with conspiring with former Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning to break into a classified government computer in the Pentagon. His arrest came after Ecuador revoked the political asylum that has seen him remain in place at the embassy for nearly seven years. Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Ellen Nakashima, who is the National Security Correspondent for The Washington Post joins the show to look at Assange's arrest and what will possibly happen next.
