Assange Says Russian Didn't Give Us E-Mails

[Parchment]

Here is three different sources, pick your poison:
WikiLeaks' Assange: Russia didn't give us emails - CNNPolitics.com
Donald Trump backs Julian Assange over Russia hacking claim - BBC News
Assange: Our source is not the Russian government — RT News

If this is true I'd say this raises many questions about the C.I.A. the N.S.A and the current Obama administrations motives and actions, I'd say in the case of the C.I.A. it might have something to do with the situation in Syria. I also find it interesting that this current outburst of the "red scare" spread to the U.K. and the EU with Brexit being blamed on Russian meddling, Merkels almost pre-blaming Russians for her upcoming political loss and tying in the French FN and other so dubbed "far-right" parties in Europe with Russian interlopers even when the connection is imaginative at best.

So Assange is now the trusted source for the new US President, ever think he might be lying or just not know where the emails came from??

I like how both sides quickly dismiss anything that doesn't support their desired narrative.

One thing is clear to me....
Wikileaks's better track record than government 'experts' notwithstanding, there's no way we can know.

What makes Wikileaks track record better other than matching your partisan bias?

None of the info Wikileaks released has been debunked.
But don't forget what government 'experts' have given us over the years.....
- The ACA will reduce health care costs.
- Saddam had WMDs.
- Etc, etc, etc.

Note also that I don't even oppose Russians exposing DNC corruption.
So I don't have a dog in this fight.
But you.....strong your faith in government is.
Are you really a conservative....or are you a neo-con (like Bush)?

DNC staffer Seth Rich was said to be the unnamed e-mail leak source, he unfortunately was murdered. A random act of violence or an assassination? all I can say is that it seems quite the coincidence but D.C. is a violent place. Assange put up a $20,000 reward for information

 

[Lyndon]

he committed suicide

 

[Brickjectivity]

It was the Germans! Payback! (note this is a rumor that I just thought up, so do not spread it)

You don't really know whether it has or not. You don't know about it isn't quite the same.
But it is obvious that Wikileaks is anti-American and anti-Democrat. In my book, that makes them beyond biased. And they're not above breaking laws when it suits them.
I realize that it all suits your partisan agenda, because you don't like Democrats and especially Hillary. But I strongly suspect that if Godzillary had skated in on a few properly placed voted, losing the popular election by millions, you might be less cavalier about Assange and the Russians.

I get my political drama fix from watching "House of Cards," as opposed to watching/reading the "news." If I'm going to spend my time watching fictional drama, I at least want it to be quality entertainment.

I like how both sides quickly dismiss anything that doesn't support their desired narrative.

I also like how the left and right both completely and shamelessly about-faced in how they viewed Assange and Wikileaks.

 

[Revoltingest]

You don't really know whether it has or not. You don't know about it isn't quite the same.

When I say it hasn't been debunked, I have a pretty strong argument....
- The Democrats, who'd have a strong desire to debunk it they could, would do so.
- If they had, it would be all over the NYT, the Wa Po, MSNBC, The Atlantic, NPR, etc, etc.
- Yet there is no news about this.
Therefore, it has not been debunked.

But it is obvious that Wikileaks is anti-American and anti-Democrat. In my book, that makes them beyond biased. And they're not above breaking laws when it suits them.

In my book (which has colorful pictures & a large font), this makes Wikileaks very pro-Americastanian.
They aren't anti-Democrat....they're anti-Democrat corruption.
Notice how they didn't attack Bernie?

I realize that it all suits your partisan agenda, because you don't like Democrats and especially Hillary.

I don't like Republicans or Trump either.
But I do like seeing the most dangerous candidate lose.
And this candidate's party will vary from election to election.

Why make it about my bias?
You do know that you have one too?

But I strongly suspect that if Godzillary had skated in on a few properly placed voted, losing the popular election by millions, you might be less cavalier about Assange and the Russians.
Tom

I have no idea what that means.
But I'm in favor of whistle blowers exposing evil, no matter which party is guilty.
Even Libertarians should be subject to such scrutiny.
Alas....I suspect no one is interested in us.

 

[Kemosloby]

Whatever led to Hillary's downfall is the correct way.

 

[Lyndon]

As a Christian I guess you're pro cuts to Social Security, Food Stamps, Welfare and Medicare and pro tax cuts to millionaires, that's so Jesus of you!!

Right now we have two options:

1. One guy is lying to protect a source.

2. A slew of independent government agencies are colluding with the president to to deliberately delude the public to specifically harm international relations with another country to damage the next administration.

I do not know for sure which is correct, but I do know which one doesn't require a conspiracy theory to believe.

I just finished watching the entire series for the 4th time and could not help but transfer the skullduggery onto the just past election cycle.

Right on man! Number two is the obvious answer.
