Really interesting article, exposing what a far right wing party the US democratic party is. Ten leading democrats address a letter to Mike Pence.
The letter declares that the Democratic senators are “extremely concerned” that Ecuador still provides asylum to Assange. It states they are “alarmed” that the read-out of Pence’s visit to Ecuador did not mention the WikiLeaks editor.
The letter declares: “t is imperative that you raise US concerns with President Moreno about Ecuador’s continued support for Mr. Assange at a time when WikiLeaks continues its efforts to undermine democratic processes globally.”
Once again the Democrats outflank the White House from the right.
Julian Assange has nevertheless publicly stated, in response to the immense anti-democratic implications of the frenzy over “Russian interference,” that the source of the DNC and Podesta leaks was not Russian intelligence.
On December 14, 2016, Craig Murray, a former British diplomat, whistleblower, independent media blogger and associate of WikiLeaks, told the Daily Mail that he knew the source of the DNC and Podesta leaks. He revealed that he had met with an “intermediary” for disgruntled members of the Democratic Party in Washington in September 2016.
Murray stated: “Neither of [the leaks] came from the Russians. The source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.” The leakers, he stated, wanted to expose “the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders.”
Murray told the Daily Mail: “I don’t understand why the CIA would say the information came from Russian hackers when they must know that isn’t true. Regardless of whether the Russians hacked into the DNC, the documents WikiLeaks published did not come from that.”
