Assange To Hannity: Source For WikiLeaks Was Not Russian Government

It's possible that that the Russians did hack into the DNC, and the documents obtained by Wikileaks were not derived from that Russian hack.

The only reason the source of the Wikileaks documents is important, is because the Russian narrative is being used by the left in an attempt to delegitimize the election of Donald Trump.

I don't think that is going anywhere. But the need to deal with hacking from overseas is certainly real.
 
So we are trusting the founder of Wikileaks over the F.B.I and C.I.A over whether the Russians are hacking or not?

I am trusting my own judgment based on circumstances and timing. I don't think the WikiLeaks releases came from hacking at all, with the exception of the phishing email that Podesta stupidly fell for. The releases once they started, kept coming and many of them had fairly current information. To me it's obvious that the majority of WikiLeaks came were leaked from one or more DNC insiders, likely in retaliation for how Bernie Sanders was treated.
 
Yes, but that is one of those things that the Democrats can't come to terms with right now. They can't admit it is their own failings that have cost them everything. They need a boogeyman.

Exactly. They need a boogeyman to push a narrative that they desperately hope will delegitimize Trump's election. they don't want to accept that what really happened was that the DNC fixing the primaries for Hillary backfired on them in a big way.
 
I have a hard time believing the Coast Guard, the Department of Energy, and the Drug Enforcement Agency spent much time reviewing the evidence, so I'm not all in on the "17 agencies" claim.

We should get to the bottom of it, but as of yet, not one single agency has definitively stated, without any doubt, the Russian Government was behind the exposure of Hillary's graft, corruption, lies and deceit.

Add to that, some of the intelligence agencies that should have info have been politicized.
 
Didn't those same intelligence agencies along with the intelligence agencies of every nation on earth determine that Saddam had WMD? How did that turn out?

The libruls are attempting to have it both ways.
 
Add to that, some of the intelligence agencies that should have info have been politicized.

That may very well be. I have yet to read the definitive absolutes about Russia.

However, I sure am reading an endless supply of reports from the now completely illegitimate fake news MSM sources making such claims.

It would seem we will be getting some more solid information in the coming days.

I'm not holding my breath on the "definitive" proof side, as I expect the "Intelligence Community" is going to punt some of the specifics by claiming more details could expose methodology they don't want to give away.
