Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, the organization that recently posted thousands of the Democratic Party's internal emails online, will speak via live stream at the Green Party national convention, party officials announced Friday.
Assange is scheduled to speak at 11:45 a.m. Saturday over a live stream from the Embassy of Ecuador in London.
He will speak on the third day of the progressive party's national convention at the University of Houston, before the party nominates its 2016 presidential nominee, widely expected to be Jill Stein.
Assange is expected to be interviewed by 2004 Green Party presidential nominee David Cobb, party officials said in a statement Friday.
Wikileaks recently made headlines by releasing thousands of Democratic Party emails on the eve of the Democratic National Convention, suggesting that some DNC party officials quietly had backed Clinton. The revelations angered Sanders supporters, rocked the Democratic gathering and prompted the ouster of DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Green Party officials and candidates repeatedly have used those emails to cast the Democratic Party nomination process as "rigged" and invite Democrats into the Green Party.

I’ve done it a few times that I know of. In some cases I don’t know if it worked.

Euros are more afraid of US troops under Trump than they are of their neighbors beheading them one by one. I had an ex like that whose hatred of me distracted her from getting beat by her new boyfriend regularly. Not sure if she is still alive...
If the European countries aren’t paid-up members of NATO, they don’t have to worry about Trump’s getting involved in protecting their rear end. He has stated that many times.
What time zone for 11:45?
Will there be a video or live stream ?
Central, according to what I've seen. It's my first guess anyway because chron.com is in Houston. I also checked other sites, including other news sources and a preview of the Green Party site itself.
Central Daylight Time is "-0500" for those readers, like many outside the US, who are more familiar with that format. In other words, 11:45 CDT will be 16:45 GMT or UT.
Watching!
anything new?
it doesn’t appear that there’s anything new.
