What had been billed as an address to the gathered media from the balcony of the Ecuadorian Embassy in London has been changed to a video presentation that will be shown in Berlin not called off, as some had reported, but changed to Germany. The reason for the shift in location and the fact that Assange will not appear live? Specific information, presumably about a credible threat.
Assange has been hinting for some time that the proverbial October surprise for Hillary would have a huge impact on the viability of her presidential campaign.
He appeared on Fox News last month, repeating his assertion that WikiLeaks has damaging documents on the former secretary of state incriminating emails, potentially. And we all know theres quite a trail of tears in Hillarys wake to suggest that new material exposing further scandal and corruption could be in the wings.
Concerning the C markings on classified material that Clinton shared through her unauthorized, unsecured private email server, Assange told Sean Hannity, Its absolutely incredible for Clinton to lie, she is lying, about not knowing what that is, but its disturbing that [FBI Director] James Comey goes along with that game, the WikiLeaks founder said.
In its coverage of the anticipated Assange video disclosure on Tuesday, Fox News notes that there have been hints that powerful people might want something to happen that would make it impossible for Julian Assange to continue doing what the WikiLeaks Twitter feed declares to be the organizations mission: We open governments.
Though no recent public revelations directly tie to Assanges security fears, various U.S. officials and pundits have made threatening statements directed at him in the past, the Fox News reports says. WikiLeaks on Monday tweeted an alleged quote from a 2010 State Department meeting at which then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asked if Assange could be killed in a drone strike. [There has been no corroboration of that supposed inquiry from Clinton.] That same year, former Democrat strategist Bob Beckel said on Fox News Channel that a dead man cant leak stuff.'
In its ten years of finding, acquiring and exposing all sorts of secrets that the rich and powerful dont want know, WikiLeaks has published more than 10 million leaked emails. They include sensitive information about prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, U.S. military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan and a cache of diplomatic cables from U.S. embassies around the world.
The Tuesday morning announcement made remotely in Berlin could be the organizations biggest disclosure yet. Or it could prove to be nothing at all.
What do you think?
We are in need of a leader who will engage in major political cleansing!!!
Assange is officially persona non-grata and someone not to be listened to again.
Trolled the world and now I don’t care what happens to him...
I guess they can breath now. Assange likes attention. He punked many of you. Just keep telling others why they need to vote for Trump.
Apparently so. I was concerned that this might all be a sham, that seems to be what it is.
I see Wikileaks is asking for contributions. Never would I give a nickle to these leakers. Never.
Ha, seriously?
Me? a troll?
Only been here for well over a decade.
Don’t be ridiculous.
And since literally nothing was released on HRC this morning I will patiently await your apology...
I am going to try to be a bit more pragmatic about this. I could have cared the less what Assange did or did not do. He already did more than I expected when he dumped the DNC e-mails. He did more than it would have normally taken to end any candidates campaign.
BUT. . . .it has often been said that Hillary could be caught on film shooting puppies and the school children holding them and it would not make one bit of difference. I think that is pretty accurate at this point. She has the corrupt media to cover for her in spin and omission. She has an Army of free stuff uber alles voters to vote for her. She has the Wall Street elites who she hangs with in the Hamptons (and decries as the evil rich all while they pay her to speak at their functions and generously donate to her campaign). She has the Hollywood elites who live on a different stratosphere than us to act as another arm of the propaganda machine and also donate generously to her campaign.
Given all of that, what has become apparent is that there are one set of laws for us and another for the neo-aristocracy. Isnt that what Trumps rise has been all about? Isnt it about the fact that it is an issue what Trump legally did on his tax returns while there is nothing to see when it comes to criminally compromising our national security then having it covered up by the FBI? Trump has preached that the system is rigged. He has asked us to stand against it. Does it really take one or two more Assange e-mail dumps to convince anyone otherwise?
It sure would be nice to become enraged or chuckle over a few more e-mails showing the Clinton is a criminal or needs someone to change her depens on a more frequent basis. It would not, however, win or lose this campaign. Mr. Trump and his campaign are going to have to power through the slings and arrows of outrageous corruption by continuing to hammer the issues and take their case to the American People.
That does not include 3AM tweets in my opinion. That does not include prepping for a debate by drinking Diet Coke and eating pop-rocks so that you appear on a sugar high or naively thinking that every debate hasn’t been rigged to feature questions from a leftist perspective. Beware Mr. Pence, tonight will be all about the war on gays and women. You will not get one question that allows you to tout the economic success of your state.
Wow! Right Arm! ;^/
Breitbart’s death among many others is proof that Obama and Hillary are nothing but the worst type of criminal and an enemy of Liberty.
