Wikileaks founder: Hillary will push the U.S. into endless, stupid wars that spread terrorism.
âWe have upcoming leaks in relation to Hillary ClintonâŚWe have emails pending publication, that is correct,â WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange told ITVâs Peston in an interview on June 12. The announcement comes at a time when the criminal investigation into Clintonâs use of a private email server has reached a critical point: Either an indictment will be served or her colleaguesâespecially the Obama Administrationâwill intervene to inoculate the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee from litigation that could interfere with her candidacy.
Assange and Clinton have a tumultuous relationship. Assangeâwho alleges Clintonreceives constant updates on his status in exile at the Ecuadorian Embassy in Londonâis likely to continue to criticize and expose Hillary Clinton as she transitions toward the general election.
WikiLeaks exposed the connection between Google and Hillary Clinton when a close adviser to Clinton at the State Department, Jared Cohen, left his role there in 2010 to server as director of Google Ideas. According to Assange, Cohen participated in back channel diplomacy between Google and the State Department. Some of Clintonâs State Department emails released by WikiLeaks include correspondence between Cohen and the State Department, tracking defections in Syria in 2012. In 2011, when Assange tried to directly contact Clinton before WikiLeaks planned to release several State Department Cables, the State Department diverted the communications to Lisa Shields. At the time, Shields was head of Communications at the Council for Foreign Relations and former Google CEO Eric Schmidtâs girlfriend. Shields and Schmidt met with Assange discreetly in 2011, accounted in Assangeâs book, When Google Met WikiLeaks.
âSheâs a war hawk with bad judgement who gets an unseemly emotional rush out of killing people.â
Earlier this month, Assange alleged Google has again been colluding with the Clintonâthis time to help get her elected.
âGoogle is directly engaged with Hillary Clintonâs campaign,â Assange said in a video. âOf course, when she is in powerâŚshe is a problem for freedom of speech. We know what she is going to do. She made the chart for the destruction of Libyaâshe was involved in the process of taking the Libyan armory and sending it to Syria.â
Assange also noted Schmidt is now heading the Pentagon Innovation Board and has been linked to Groundword, a startup devoted to getting Clinton elected.
âI have had years of experience in dealing with Hillary Clinton and have read thousands of her cables. Hillary lacks judgement and will push the United States into endless, stupid wars which spread terrorism. Her personality combined with her poor policy decisions have directly contributed to the rise of ISIS,â Assange wrote on WikiLeaks in February 2016. âSheâs a war hawk with bad judgement who gets an unseemly emotional rush out of killing people,â he added, in reference to a video of Clinton celebrating the overthrow of Libyaâs leader, Muammar Gaddafi. In aninterview with CBS News, Clinton laughed, âWe came, we saw, he died.â
Assange makes no reservations that heâs staunchly against Hillary Clinton becoming president of the United States, as she represents the corruption he sought to combat with the creation of WikiLeaks. Clintonâs unauthorized use of a private email serverduring her service as secretary of state illuminates the measures she is willing to take to circumvent transparencyâeven when it means breaking the law.
Clintonâs sense of entitlement and political power shield her from consequences for breaking the same rules as those who did so out of a sense of public service. Julian Assange and Edward Snowden are forced to live in exile while Clinton is on the verge of being elected president.
Why Julian Assange Doesnât Want Hillary Clinton to Be President
What right does a foreign anarchist like Julian Assange have to influence American elections? As I understand it - Assange is in exile due to pending rape charges in Sweden.
