Assange is becoming more prominent in the Trump campaign. Tonight he received a heroes welcome on the Sean Hannity show. Meanwhile it should be assumed that Putin's security agents are preparing more documents for Assange to dump at a strategic time. With Assange becoming more blatantly partisan, it is unclear how many people will believe that phony documents are real. But, I think we should assume that some phony documents are on the way.

The NY Times explains how and why Assange is working for Putin and Russia.

our elections? Surely, Putin and Assange should be permitted to express their support for Trump, but should the American electorate have to put up with purposeful distortions of reality designed to deprive voters of the truth?

I think that a grand jury should investigate the Russian/Wikileaks campaign activities. I suspect that when the truth comes out, some of these activities will be found to be criminal.

CSPAN is providing coverage of the convention. The other channels are covering the people who work for their network. By switching to CSPAN, I am now able to watch the convention non-stop.

Clinton's campaign manager (Robby Mooks) suggested today that some of the emails may have been doctored. If any have been doctored, there will be a cloud over every one of them until whoever dumped a document can come forward to prove that it is authentic. I don't think that these dumpers can do that, particularly if the Russians were involved. If there exists a cloud over the authenticity of some of them, they will all be more or less worthless.

People should not just roll over and be destroyed by unauthenticated documents emerging from dark and suspicious sources. We should all demand some proof. Let these dumpers come forward and prove their case.
