Assange, who has been living in asylum in Ecuador's embassy in London for four years, had been scheduled to deliver a speech from his balcony during which it was expected he would release information that could be damaging to US presidential candidate [URL="https://www.cnet.com/tags/hillary-clinton/"]Hillary Clinton[/URL]. Assange had said in August he planned to release "significant" information about the Democratic nominee before the [URL="http://trail.cbsnews.com/"]November 8 election[/URL]. [/QUOTE] [URL="https://www.cnet.com/news/julian-assange-speech-berlin-due-to-specific-information-wikileaks-hillary-clinton-drone-strike/"]Source[/URL] For a few months he's been teasing whatever releases tomorrow will kill Clinton's campaign, that said I don't think that's possible after what's already been released.

Yeah unless he releases proof that she personally murdered someone with DNA and video evidence it's not going to "end her campaign." Still should be interesting though.
Why is this the time to release this shit...Like It probably wont do anything but better safe then sorry. I mean I hate her but she is wayyyy better than trump and I think this will only hurt her chances. This guy seems like he just has a vendetta, he isnt really a vigilante like snowden was.

This stuff is released in hopes that our democratic process is finally exposed as corrupt to the public at large and we see some meaningful change.
[QUOTE=King Tiger;51149165]Yeah unless he releases proof that she personally murdered someone with DNA and video evidence it's not going to "end her campaign." Still should be interesting though.[/QUOTE] I just want the leak to be released already so we can move on. So much dirt has been brought out on both candidates and they're both doing competing well with each other regardless. For those on the east coast, 10am Berlin time is 3am EST (3 hours from now).
[QUOTE=Wealth + Taste;51149183]It's not just about Clinton.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;51149180]Releasing it closer to the election would have a larger effect.[/QUOTE] Its also inbetween all of the debates. Any real dirt might get brought up later tomorrow in the VP debate. Also why are you in Canada
[QUOTE=Raidyr;51149180]Releasing it closer to the election would have a larger effect.[/QUOTE] So this kinda proves he has a personal vendetta
[QUOTE=RIPBILLYMAYS;51149208] Also why are you in Canada[/QUOTE] I don't know, which terrifies me [editline]4th October 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Firetornado;51149209]So this kinda proves he has a personal vendetta[/QUOTE] Seemed clear to me when the founder and editor of an organization devoted to the naked truth resorted to lies and conspiracy theories to undermine Clinton. They have burned all the good will they had and no one will take them seriously again if Assange has been bluffing
[QUOTE=Raidyr;51149215]I don't know, which terrifies me[/QUOTE] canada has begun its annexation
Wonder what he'll release considering he posted this earlier [video]https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/782906224937410562[/video]

Well, tonight should be interesting, if nothing else.
[QUOTE=Wealth + Taste;51149183]It's not just about Clinton.

Especially when you're cozy with the other side.
[QUOTE=-nesto-;51149273]Wonder what he'll release considering he posted this earlier [/QUOTE] what the fuck is with wikileaks recently awhile ago when hillary was sick they posted she had some kind of brain tumor/cancer thing all this fake shit
[img]http://i.imgur.com/k3H1EJM.png[/img] Hahaha that article the wikileaks account linked was such a wonderful read. A friend and I read the entire thing and they did not label their sources. So is Julian Assange an attention whore, misguided, or just really fucking dumb?
The only things I can see 'ending' Clinton's campaign are two things, both of which are highly unlikely to happen: -Another video showing her having another medical scare -A video or audio clip of her berating minorities with slurs I don't think people in this election care about political history or scandals anymore.

[QUOTE=Wealth + Taste;51149183]It's not just about Clinton.

It'd never pass congress. What we'd get is a bit of outrage, political apathy would skyrocket, and we may very well end up with voter turnout in November so low that the election results that do come in are invalid.
[QUOTE=TheHydra;51149366]i think assange said this was supposed to get hillary arrested or something[/QUOTE] Lots of things were supposed to get Hillary arrested and they all fell through If that's what assange is going after then I really don't expect any fallout from the press conference
[QUOTE=KillRay;51149326]what the fuck is with wikileaks recently awhile ago when hillary was sick they posted she had some kind of brain tumor/cancer thing all this fake shit[/QUOTE] Russian puppet at this point, no idea if it was willingly or through some kind of bribe, but they have very clearly shifted from an unbiased source to a right wing source that somehow amazingly only uncovers things on the left and somehow has nothing on Russia? Either a doctor or Assange himself or something like that admitted that he is slowly losing his mind in the embassy as well, due to a lack of basic human relationships and interactions so that probably plays into it.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;51149381]spending too much time on r/the_donald[/QUOTE] I am or do you mean Assange is as a joke?
