Full Title: Kimberley Strassel: Democrat's tactics in the Trump-Russia probe are starting to look a lot like McCarthyismDemocrats have spent weeks making the case that the Russia-Trump probes need to continue, piling on demands for more witnesses and documents. So desperate is the left to keep this Trump cudgel to hand that Senate Intelligence Committee Democrats have moved toward neo- McCarthyism. If that sounds hyperbolic, consider an email recently disclosed by the Young Turks Network, a progressive YouTube news channel. It’s dated Dec. 19, 2017, and its author is April Doss, senior counsel for the committee’s Democrats, including Vice Chairman...

If the CIA spent more time investigating terrorists and less time training and arming them we might not have had today's truck attack in New York.

In an appearance on Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning, Senator Rand Paul floated the possibility that the Democratic National Committee emails were leaked to WikiLeaks by an insider, rather than “the Russians.”It has long been speculated that murdered DNC data analyst Seth Rich was behind the leaked emails.When asked by Ainsley Earhardt for his reaction to the news that a lawyer for the Clinton campaign and the DNC had funded the infamous Fusion GPS dossier on Trump, Paul laughed.“It amazes me for a year the Democrats have been whining, whining, and whining saying they lost because of the Russians....

Tomorrow is going to be big.

In March 2013, when Edward Snowden sought a job with Booz Allen Hamilton at a National Security Agency facility in Hawaii, he signed the requisite classified-information agreements and would have been made well aware of the law regarding communications intelligence. Section 798 of the United States Code makes it a federal crime if a person "knowingly and willfully communicates, furnishes, transmits, or otherwise makes available to an unauthorized person, or publishes, or uses in any manner prejudicial to the safety or interest of the United States" any classified information concerning communication intelligence. [snip] Before taking the job in Hawaii, Mr....

MODES OF THOUGHT   The online activist group this week leaked documents from a company that provides ‘solutions’ for Russian telecom giants and state agencies. The dump could signal new scrutiny of Russia from the long-time US bugbear. MOSCOW—It’s been seven years since WikiLeaks chief Julian Assange threatened to drop an information bombshell on the Kremlin that would show Russians the inner workings of their government and business world. That threat never materialized, though a handful of fairly tame Russia-related documents were published. WikiLeaks went on to publish hundreds of thousands of secret US diplomatic cables and, more recently, a...

I think we are about to see President Trump pardon Julian Assange. Republican Representative Dana Rohrabacher met with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London this week. Rohrabacher said that Assange “reaffirmed his aggressive denial that the Russians had anything to do with the hacking of the DNC during the election, and he has given us a lot of information. He said there is more to come. We don’t have the entire picture yet.” Rohrabacher made a shocking statement: the information would have “an earth-shattering political impact.” Assange said: “It wouldn’t be so important if Democrats hadn’t...

WikiLeaks editor Julian Assange told a visiting congressman the secret-spilling site would like a seat at White House press briefings. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican, told the Washington Examiner he supports the primary source publisher's goal. "It didn't sound unreasonable to me," he said in a phone call from London on Thursday, two days after what he said was a three-hour meeting with Assange in Ecuador's U.K. embassy.

“It makes no difference if they are criminals, flesh peddlers, and smut dealers that are exploiting American and Ecuadorian people for profit. For Clinton, if you have enough money, anything goes. This is just another reason why her brand of corruption must not be allowed into the White House.”

Multi-billion dollar corporation CNN is Extorting a Private Citizen over a Joke Tweet! CNN reported today that they declined to publicly identify the Reddit user who created the Trump CNN wrestling video because he promised not to do it again.   CNN reporter Andrew Kaczynski then went on to say, “CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.”That is extortion. They threatened to dox him. Founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange tweeted out, ‘CNN committed a crime, violating 135.60 of the New York criminal code.’ Below is a description of the code:

Founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange slammed Hillary Clinton today after her bizarre interview a at Recode conference where she slammed the DNC and blamed them for her crushing election loss Wednesday. Hillary Clinton went on a rant about the vast right wing conspiracy and blamed Wikileaks for her 2016 election loss. Julian Assange immediately hit back and told Hillary to blame herself, not Wikileaks. Hillary Clinton also blamed the ‘Fake News’, the Russians and Wikileaks for the ‘DC Leaks’ during this interview: Now let me just finish, because this is the second and third step. So we know that they...

Swedish prosecutors have decided to drop charges of rape against the founder of Wikileaks, Julian Assange. The charges stem from accusations by two women that Assange forced himself on them 7 years ago. At the time, Assange had been arrested by British authorities and released on bail while he awaited extradition to Sweden. Instead, he jumped bail and sought refuge in the Ecuadoran embassy in London. Swedish prosecutors have not exonerated Assange; they say that because they can't prosecute him in the foreseeable future that they were forced to drop the investigation. There is an outstanding warrant for Assange...

Barack Obama‘s CIA Director John O. Brennan targeted Trump supporters for enhanced surveillance, intelligence sources confirm to GotNews’ Charles C. Johnson. The surveillance took place between Trump’s election on November 8 and the inauguration in January, according to White House and House intelligence sources. The focus was on General Mike Flynn, billionaire Erik Prince, and Fox News host Sean Hannity — all of whom had close ties to Trump before and after the November election and had helped the future president with managing his new diplomatic responsibilities. Hannity was targeted because of his perceived ties to Julian Assange, say our...

We can't link to AP reports on FR I understand so with that in mind the Associated Press is reporting through its story posted on Yahoo, MSN and other websites that the leftist Lenin Moreno has won the runoff election for President of Ecuador. The reported margin is 51-49 percent Lenin Moreno over Guillermo Lasso. Lasso is claiming vote fraud as three exit polls showed him winning. Lenin Moreno was in support of keeping Julian Assange of WikiLeaks at Ecuador's embassy in London while Guillermo Lasso wanted to kick him out and let the globalist authorities arrest him.

The standoff between authorities from foreign nations and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been going on now for longer than some of you can probably remember. (It’s been almost half a decade at this point.) Assange has been living in Great Britain’s Ecuadorian embassy along with his cat while Sweden and the United States both tussle over who should get their hands on them first if he emerges. That may finally be about to change but it all depends on the outcome of the upcoming Ecuadorian elections. Guillermo Lasso, the candidate from the Creating Opportunities party who is currently...

A retired four-star Marine Corps general who served as the nation’s second-ranking military officer is a target of a Justice Department investigation into a leak of information about a covert U.S.-Israeli cyberattack on Iran’s nuclear program, a senior Obama administration official said. Retired Gen. James E. “Hoss” Cartwright served as deputy chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and was part of President Obama’s inner circle on a range of critical national security issues before he retired in 2011. The administration official said that Cartwright is suspected of revealing information about a highly classified effort to use a computer virus...

"If Obama grants Manning clemency Assange will agree to US extradition despite clear unconstitutionality of DoJ (US Department of Justice) case," WikiLeaks wrote on Twitter.

On today’s Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough ripped as “repulsive” Sean Hannity’s “bromance” with Julian Assange, and more generally criticized the Republican change of heart on Wikileaks. Background on the evolution of Hannity’s views on Assange here [note: from Daily Beast.] Scarborough noted that when Wikileaks divulged information about a CIA operation some years ago, Assange became the Republican “enemy #1.” In 2010, Donald Trump himself tweeted that WikiLeaks was “disgraceful” and that there “should be death penalty or something.” View the video here.
