(12,530 posts)That's the difference between your assertion and Wikileaks' releases--theirs are verifiably true, yours is pure speculation.

(30,481 posts)And contrary to your thoughts, wiki has released tons of info in the past that was found to be fraudulent.
Rapist Trump lover Assange isn't some beacon of truth. Not even close.

Plus Wikileaks whistles blows corruption from every part.
They exposed more than 65.000 documents about Putin, Bush 1 and 2, Sarkozy, Ghaddafi and so on..

(35,015 posts)I have been asking all morning for solid evidence of Wikileaks/Trump/Russian collusion, but instead, just crickets.
You realize without evidence, you're talking outrageous conspiracy theory don't you?

(61,194 posts)I guess you never know, do you!

(35,015 posts)Remember when Trump said "Bernie supporters will vote for me" in his speech? There are those here who are helping him promote that preposterous lie.

(14,167 posts)I really believe this is why DWS "stepped down." More embarrassing info will come out.
What we have to do is present a united front and show the Russians (and the rest of the country) that we're family. Like all families, we fight, we argue, we mess up and hurt one another. But at the end of the day, we're still family and we're going to stick together and support one another from this point on.
I have no doubt there is another bombshell to drop. We still have to walk and chew gum at the same time. Clean house, but keep our eyes on the ultimate goal.
It is a very sad day in the history of American politics when a foreign nation actually gets to exert influence over a Presidential election.

Not sure if there is anything else, but the timing is perfect for the initial hit.

(13,570 posts)Stay united, stay on message. And don't go all doom and gloom. That's what they want. Hype hype hype. Much ado about not much as always. Yeah, some dumb things said. Wasserman needed to go anyway. She sucked. Stay on attacking Trump.

(3,284 posts)I think he was referring to this article:
http://yournewswire.com/julian-assange-my-next-leak-will-ensure-hillarys-arrest/
The article is incredibly misleading. It's referring to an interview with Assange from Jun 12, talking about Hillary's private email server. Nothing to do with the DNC leak. It's from before Comey recommended no charges.

(41,832 posts)I knew I had read the same earlier... it's from early June.
He never released anything that would get her indicted
Assange is an anarchist. He doesn't care about our politics. He just wants chaos
It's really irritating that people like Willie Geist are repeating this crap on natl tv.
Sometimes it feels like the media is determined to elect Trump.
It will keep things interesting over 4 years.

(31,849 posts)but rarely delivered "bombshell."
Remember? It was the Greenwald/Assange/Snowden DU rage for months.
sarae
(3,284 posts)so I looked it up. He said Assange tweeted that "the next leak will ensure Hillary Clinton's arrest."
I looked it up and I assume he was talking about this article:
http://yournewswire.com/julian-assange-my-next-leak-will-ensure-hillarys-arrest/
But if you click on the link in the first sentence, where it says, "During a recent interview with ITV," it takes you to an interview with Assange from Jun 12, in which he was discussing Hillary's private emails from before the FBI recommended no charges. He wasn't even referring to the DNC leak.

greymattermom
(5,807 posts)and they probably know that there may be this type of trap. But Trump will leak the information anyway. I hope the trap is juicy enough to trap Trump. Does Trump have to get a security clearance now? Can he actually get one?

(11,203 posts)...it makes more people watch the DNC convention. If the Democrats stay on message, as during the Clinton/Kaine rollout, the more people watching, the better.
