Ecuador 'Cuts Julian Assange's Internet Access' After Hillary Clinton Leaks
telegraph.co.uk ^ | 18 October 2016

Posted on 10/17/2016 8:35:27 PM PDT by Helicondelta

"We can confirm Ecuador cut off Assange's internet access Saturday, 5pm GMT, shortly after publication of Clinton's Goldman Sachs speechs," the statement from WikiLeaks said.

"We have activated the appropriate contingency plans," WikiLeaks added. People close to WikiLeaks say that Mr Assange himself is the principal operator of the website's Twitter feed.

...

Three paid speeches to Goldman Sachs by Mrs Clinton were released by WikiLeaks on Saturday. Mrs Clinton's campaign did not contest the authenticity of the remarks, part of a huge trove of documents hacked from the emails of campaign chairman John Podesta by WikiLeaks.

...

Mrs Clinton was hit with new allegations of corruption on Monday after it was suggested one of her close aides tried to pressure the FBI to change the classification level of one of her emails while the agency was investigating her.

Patrick Kennedy, the US State Department Undersecretary for Management, was said to have contacted the FBI to ask for the change, allegedly followed by discussion of a "quid pro quo".

It sounds like Swiftboat Johnny Kerry told them how the cow ate the cabbage. Well, it’s nice to know that at least one country on the planet is afraid of us.

Wikileaks is not a one man band. Hopefully the contingency plans include other personnel who will keep the document releases coming.

Did the Ecuador embassy confiscate his tablet and cell phone? If not he would be able to do quite a bit even without a wired internet connection.

Phrasing! /Archer

And depending where the leak is coming from, it could just be garden variety icky to horribly grotesque.

So the United States Government is putting pressure on Ecuador to protect a nominee for the top slot in said Government.

If that doesn’t say all you need to know you haven’t been watching. The fix is in. Clinton is going to be the next President. They will stop at nothing, and have nearly the entirety of the US government behind them. Not to mention the media, and most of the education as well. The only thing they don’t have is the internet. But they gave it away a few weeks ago, so expect alternative news sites to disappear soon.

Julian Assange is no hero of the left – after years evading justice, he’s now buddying up with Donald Trump

The husband and I were discussing yesterday Assange’s stay at the Ecuadoran embassy. We had so many questions:

What is Ecuador gaining from this relationship?

What are the chances some Ecuadoran official will be paid off to let in an assassin?

Would the globalists be so bold as to take out Assange, knowing that the motive for the killing would be so obvious?
(I am inclined to think the answer to that is that, even though their motive would be obvious and even though they know that there is more than one person with the data, they would do it to send a message. Think Mark Rich.)

Assange’s stay at the Ecuadorian Embassy is reminiscent of Osama bin Laden’s stay in Pakistan, except OBL’s presence was a secret that everybody agreed to. And when the time came to take out the trash, Pakistan looked the other way. You can bet that the US State Department knows what it will take to get Ecuador to look the other way — it just hasn’t happened yet.

If I had to be as to the ‘means’, I’d say a fabricated ‘health emergency’. Mr. Assange gets rushed to a hospital where he tragically dies. You see, because everybody knows where Assange is, the death cannot take place inside the embassy.

“He was Director of the Office of Management Policy, Rightsizing and Innovation”

Who says government is bloated? They’ve got a third of an office dedicated to “rightsizing”
