Wars have started over less. On top of that, the foreign hackers may have connections with the Republican Presidential candidate. That is one shit storm getting worse.

“And if they got any money from crooked dem donors, the Russians should donate it to MY campaign, because I am the honest candidate, the one who will make America strong, and will stand up to countries who try to bully us”

What a shitstorm Assange hath unleashed. Not in the way he intended, either. RICO the motherfucker. Greenwald and Snowden as well.

Assange appears to have a very warped world view. And he seems almost Trumpian in his need for attention. I wonder if he’d care to make every detail of his private life public as he loves “transparency” so much.

I’ve always thought that the CIA, MI6, the Australian and Swedish intelligence services should release everything they have. The public has a right to know, don’t they?

Apparently Assange did intend this. He told the news media abroad that he despises Hillary and wants to harm her as much as possible. Scumbag.

You mean comrade Assange? The Assange who had a regular program on RT, previously know as Russia Today, for the whole year of 2012?
RT is Putin’s propaganda station which he started in 2005. How can anyone who claims to love freedom of information work for Putin who stifles journalists, or has them killed? Wikileaks maybe started out with good intentions, but I think it has been used as a tool against Western interests by Russian intelligence for many years. They never release anything on Russia or their friends.This cartoon sums it up:

Edit to add: Assange was the person who arranged for Snowden to travel to Russia.

Well with the number of sexual assault charges against him that he is hiding from in the name of “freedom” I’d guess he has issues with women?

Assange accused Clinton of trying to get the Espionage act used on him. He’s under the impression that Trump is the lesser of two evils,

Trump wanted him executed, though he might have spared him if Snowden had came up with Obama’s college records.

I don’t think he intended the backlash. I don’t think he thought Drumpf would fuck it all up.

OT: I have now officially reached my goddam limit with the Berniebrats. These rude, spoiled self-absorbed WATB’s in the yellow shirts trying to shit on veterans and planning a second walkout (a concept they seem not to understand), need to be spanked and sent to their rooms without any artisanal craft beer.

"GOP nominee Donald Trump was heavily criticized this week for urging the Russians to release Hillary Clinton's emails if they were in possession of the records from another cyber attack."

That is a provably WRONG statement. As Rep Elijah Cummings said today, the media has to stop making excuses for Donald Trump.

What Mr. Trump said was “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let’s see if that happens.”

Let’s see if that happens. That is a signal for Russia to hack his political opponent. Please try to do better in the future.

You know, I’m starting to be of the mind fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. Why on earth are they not upping their levels of security? There are steps that can prevent this type of attack. They are not as convenient for the end user, but if its sensitive info…protect it!

They most likely did up their security but the only secure computer is one that has no connection to the internet or any other communication options. The Pentagon, national security agencies, the White House have all been hacked and they most definitely have access to better security software and hardware than the vast majority of Americans and the DNC.
