WikiLeaks' Julian Assange Again Vows 'Significant' Election-Related Leak
NBC News ^ | October 4, 2016 | F. Brinley Bruton and Carlo Angerer

BERLIN — WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange once again promised the anti-secrecy organization would publish "significant" information involving the U.S. presidential race before the November election — but revealed no details Tuesday.

"We are going to need an army to defend us from the pressure that is already starting to arise," Assange said via video link in an event the campaigner said was timed to coincide with the group's 10-year anniversary.

He said WikiLeaks aimed to publish previously unreleased material weekly for the next 10 weeks, but did not say exactly what it would be.

The organization also declined to say whether any upcoming releases would involve the Republicans. In August, Assange also said he was planning to release "significant" information about Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton....

Has anyone ever seen Julian Assange and Glenn Beck in the same room?

He has been promising dirt for weeks, where is it? Is he being threatened? Why all the buildup?

With the internet no longer under US control, Assange may have decided against releasing anything lest his connection be permanently severed.

He’s probably finding alternative ways to do it now.

Isn't that his usual M.O.?

I'll believe that he has something, ONLY, when he delivers.

We’ll just have to wait and see and not get too emotional about the whole thing.

There was a lot of rumor and buildup, I suspect from people trying to drive a wedge between us and Assange (Hillary trolls?).

As the news conference (where no leaks were going to be presented anyway) came down 24 hours ago, there were a whole bunch of posts dumping on Assange and claiming he was no good etc. etc.

Highly suspicious posts seeking to drive us away from Assange ahead of his leaks which are going to be published in the coming weeks ahead of the election for better or worse.

He had delivered, lots. However, there is nothing that he could deliver to leftist dimwits that they are making their own nooses if Hilary gets elected.

Nothing short of a nuclear strike will wake them up either.

Sadly very true re those voting for Hillary. :-(

Re Julian A., well, sort of but NOTHING exactly "earth shattering".

Ummmm. No one can permanently sever his connection to the internet. He can just pick up someone’s tablet, laptop, or sit at another workstation if someone destroyed his. As for data connections how can you block a web of servers and multitudes of IP addresses, that’s just not possible to stop any one person from accessing the world wide web.

Interesting premise...makes a lot of sense!

Interesting...

how internet transfer issue now seems to keep coming up...after the deadline, which is a real shame because so few seemed motivated to do anything about it a couple weeks ago :(

Does Glenn Beck sound remotely Australian? I mean the accent.

Aussie accent is one of the hardest to acquire, imitate or lose.

We've got to STOP believing ANY news about Julian Assange that originated from NBC!

They are constantly LYING to discredit him. Then at the last minute they report again: "Ah, Julian is now retracting his statement."

If there is any truth to a story about Julian it should be from reputable, traceable sites like WIKILEAKS themselves
