Assange vows Google, US election leaks as WikiLeaks turns 10

The whistleblowing site was founded in 2006 by Julian Assange, who today said he "feels sorry" for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

In coming weeks, the site is set to publish documents related to Google, the US presidential election and more, according to controversial founder Julian Assange.

Assange denied reports that he intended to harm the campaign of Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, although he did describe the reaction to leaks of Democratic emails as "neo-McCarthy-esque hysteria".

Asked if he had any affinity for Clinton's Republican rival Donald Trump, Assange said, "I feel sorry for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. They are two people that are tormented by their ambitions."

He likely made an agreement to shut up and in return have the benefit of still being able to breath.

Maybe. But if that is in fact the case, he doesn't learn well because people say that every time he makes threats he doesn't back up and he's still breathing. In fact, one could just as easily conclude the guy was a walking talking psyop designed to keep attention off legit issues BOTH candidates have already in the news and the fact BOTH are taking the country further left.

He must really love it then in that embassy after being there now almost four years.

All voluntarily, of course.

I love it how these Trumpkins get played by these conspiracy nuts.

But, when your candidate's opposition research shop comprises Roger Stone, Alex Jones, and Assange, you get scammed into watching 3 am Wikileaks infomercials.
Roy Moore's "spiritual warfare" is driving past a junior high without stopping.

Nothing on Clinton, but looks like Assange did uncover this:
