Latest news today is that Julian Assange's internet access has been but by an 'unidentified state actor'. Assange has a 'dead-man switch' he has to access every 24 hours or else some code with be released to the public that would give them everything basically. Seems like they want call the bluff, get it all out there now instead of before a week before the election.

Quote:
PARIS (AP) — WikiLeaks says that founder Julian Assange's internet access has been cut by an unidentified state actor. Few other details were immediately available.

Assange has been up holed up at the Ecuadorean Embassy in London for more than four years after skipping bail to avoid being extradited over sex crimes allegations.

The cramped quarters haven't prevented the Australian transparency activist from working and WikiLeaks continues to deliver scoops, including revelations that have rattled Hillary Clinton's campaign for president as the U.S. election enters its final stretch.

Calls, texts and emails left with WikiLeaks weren't immediately returned Monday. A woman who picked up the phone at the embassy said: "I cannot disclose any information." An email to Ecuador's ambassador wasn't immediately answered. London's Metropolitan Police declined comment.


this comes after CNN declared the other day that it was illegal for people to acceses these leaked emails and that the only people they can get information about them is from them. This is a LIE by the way, there are things I've seen on TV in the last couple years that I just couldn't believe. What so often gets dismissed as a conspiracy actually turns out to be completely right, our leaders are not honest people but are held to much lower standards of conduct than us everyday Americans.



The propaganda campaign going on right now has no precedence in American history, this is the true affront to Democracy with the few media monopolies that collectively own our media becoming the official mouthpiece for the most corrupt candidate that has ever made it this far for the office of the presidency. Hillary is above the law and she is not even held accountable by the media, this is a very dangerous combination. These leaks have proven the incestuous relationship the media has with the Clinton campaign and Democratic Party, there is most definitely a bias in the media and to deny it at this point I think would be laughable.

new documents from the FBI

FBI: Hillary Insulted Ambassadors. Stole from State Dept. Blatant disregard of protocol. Using State Dept. Position to campaign for POTUS

https://sli.mg/a/nNCo7y

doesn't show her in flattering light, corroborates previous stories from Secret Service about the real Hillary

seems like there was some attempted 'quid pro quo' to change the classification of documents during the Clinton email investigation

*this Patrick Kennedy no relation to the Patrick Kennedy of the former congressman from Rhode Island

Remember. It's only a conspiracy theory until there's evidence.

The Lincoln assassination involved known individuals who conspired amongst themselves to cause the death of the president. If the Lincoln investigators had followed your maxim to wait until evidence presents itself, the conspirators would likely have lived long lives. We also need to realize how the CIA popularized and weaponized the phrase "conspiracy theory" in the mid-1960s to denigrate and dissuade those Americans who expressed doubts about the "government theory" about how Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of President Kennedy (despite the U.S. House Select Committee on Assassinations concluding in 1978 that "Kennedy was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy"). But, hey, the First Amendment to the Constitution for the United States of America gives anyone the right to believe and use such phrases against others ... the very reason the phrase was invented (see NLP or "thoughtcrime").

Has anybody else been underwhelmed by these leaks from the Clinton campaign this year? I mean, compared to the leaks on Trump, they're pretty tame.

A violation of the federal Logan Act is never underwhelming.

Her campaign doesn't seem particularly rocked, almost as if her supporters just don't care...

Indeed. If people find the above pieces "tame" they clearly do not understand the severity of them or they prioritise alleged scandals worthy of a gossip magazine over government collusion with the media and banks and both major parties.

Shall we commence the whining about how no Clinton supporters have dared to come over here and defend her yet? Seems to be the thing to do in the Trump threads, anyway.

CNN?! Really???

The opening post has a CNN video misinforming the public about what is legal and illegal, and more or less telling you only to believe their take on any information that is accessible for you to make your own judgement call on.

The WikiLeaks documents CONFIRM otherwise!
Other news articles CONFIRM otherwise!

Do you not see the problem here?

When you guys start crowing for the imprisonment of Bush, Cheney, Powell and Rice for the disappearance of the 22 million emails from the planing stages of the Iraq war (you know, the ones they were storing on a private server maintained by the RNC), then I will believe that your outrage about Clinton's private email is something other than bloviating over bovine excreta.

I did not like the Bush presidency at all, and along with many others from the UK deem him and Blair to be some of the biggest crooks going. They both colluded and were from completely different kinds of political parties. Funnily enough, for the lobbyists the Bush family were the flavour of the term, and now it's the democrats.

This is more to do with how corrupt government is and enabling someone who will only make it worse.
Even the GOP is in with it. So it's not a party bias thing, it's a corruption thing.

I am completely underwhelmed by these leaks and I think it's a good idea to get them out in the open now. This whole election cycle has been a train wreck. The only thing that concerns me at this point is what the hell Trump is going to do - win or lose. He is the type to keep pressing and he has followers with guns.

Tell that to all the rape accusations that have no evidence whatsoever.

Did you notice that this thread isn't about the email server thing?
