    If he were interested in bringing things to light he would have released all the information he had, but he didn’t, he held back for US Conservatives. He did right-wing politics in the US a big favor.

    He has an agenda, and it’s not press freedom.

      what makes you think he had something to release?

        He leaked information from the DNC, but never released the same email logs for the RNC. He was given both following a known hack of both the DNC and the RNC. He released 1 side, and then tried promote the conspiracy about Seth Richs death.

        He has an agenda. Wikileaks is a good idea, but I don’t buy that it didn’t have a state backer.

            Because we know for a fact the information was taken from both as part of the same breach of the RNC and DNC servers by Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear, Russian state actors.

            If Assange was not aware of the additional information from the breach that’s just as bad, because he’s happy to be a useful idiot with a fanbase.

            So he’s either malicious or stupid. Neither is worthy of admiration.

              there is a possibility that nothing from the rnc was that damning (i doubt this), or he felt that releasing it would dilute the seriousness of both sets of accusations.

              but this is assuming he had access to the rnc hack, and that is not proven.

      THERE IT IS. The acceptable conspiracy theory of the left. Thanks

        It’s acceptable because it’s true. I would respect him greatly if he had released everything rather than what was damaging to his personal political enemies.
