First, no he did not. He released information relating to government officials engaging in misconduct. Hillary Clinton had been a government official for a long time, Trump had not. Of course youre more likely to get that kind of information on her and not him.
But even if he had, having a political allegiance is not a crime punishable by prison as far as I know.
Uh, if I was about to vote for a presidential candidate, and someone had evidence that person was involved in some kind of misconduct, then I’d certainly rather be aware of that before voting for them than after.
Or, he just released it before the DNC because that was when it would have the most visibility. Especially when part of what was released was evidence of the DNC conspiring against Bernie Sanders.
Do you see that as pro-Republican just because it was anti-DNC? You could make the same argument that Bernie told him to release it then because it was so favorable to him.
Strange how he primarily releases information that makes the left look bad while ignoring the right. Not even Trump specifically but they could release stuff on other right wing politicians. Lord knows that every single one is corrupt in some way or another after all.
Any evidence Wikileaks withheld info about the right? They release info that’s leaked to them. If Russia used Wikileaks to further their own agenda, that’s not a Wikileaks problem (as long as the information is accurate).

… at precisely the right time to maximise the effect of the release and diminish her chances at winning the election.
No whistleblowers shouldn’t go to prison, I’m glad Assange is going home but I do dislike him immensely.

Would you not?
If it was just about transparency he would’ve released it sooner.
Sitting on it to release at the right time was partisan.
He held onto the information until he was given a signal by Trump’s team to release it. He could have released it whenever he wanted, but didn’t.

Looks like they received a leak about Russia security services and refused to release it, during the 2016 election. Not a good look, that.
