‘Unexpected Leaks’ from Clinton Campaign Coming

‘Unexpected Leaks’ from Clinton Campaign Coming

https://politicalwire.com/2016/08/25/unexpected-leaks-from-clinton-campaign-coming/

"SNIP............



Julian Assange told Fox News that WikiLeaks will release information with some “unexpected angles” regarding Hillary Clinton’s campaign ahead of the general election.

Said Assange: “I think it’s significant. You know, it depends on how it catches fire in the public and in the media.”

He added: “I don’t want to give the game away, but it’s a variety of documents from different types of institutions that are associated with the election campaign, some quite unexpected angles, some quite interesting, some even entertaining.”

... two supposedly independent hacking groups, believed by security experts to have ties to the Kremlin, posted the same documents stolen from a philanthropy run by George Soros. But the hack included a twist: Some of the documents taken by one group were altered in a bid to try and link Soros to Russian anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny, revealing how hackers likely working for Moscow are editing documents to smear their victims.

Navalny denies receiving funding from Soros and says he has had no support from Yandex. Laura Silber, a spokesperson for Open Society, said the foundation has never supported Navalny and that the edited documents posted by Cyber Berkut amounted to a libelous claim.

The Kremlin, Navalny wrote in an email to Foreign Policy, “really likes that type of tactics: posting fake documents among real hacked documents.” The goal, he wrote, is to create a mess for the opposition.

This is of course, of no concern to Julian Assange. He doesn't care if Russia supplies him with fake emails supposedly hacked form the DNC or the Clinton Foundation are genuine or not.

Discredited themselves before they even dumped those "flaming hot" damning emails they're holding on to till the week before the election.

No one gives a fuck.....we're running against Trump. Unless you have film of H holding a knife dripping in the blood of Pope Francis in the middle of St Peter's Square in broad daylight with 150 witnesses, we don't give a fuck!
