Assange blasts 'embarrassing' US intel report, insists Russia not his source

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange fired back Monday at the U.S. intelligence community for its report stating the anti-secrecy website was used by the Russian government to distribute hacked information from Democratic figures during the run-up to the presidential election.
Assange, speaking during an audio-only Periscope Q&A session, said the source of his information was not a member “of any government” or “state parties” and did not “come from the Russian government.” The WikiLeaks editor-in-chief blasted Friday’s declassified intelligence report on “Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections” as being inadequate and misleading.
“It was not an intelligence report,” Assange said. “It does not have the structure of an intelligence report. It does not have the structure of a Presidential Daily Brief. It was frankly quite embarrassing.”
He added: “It was clearly designed for political effect.”

It's either him or the CIA, notorious obfuscators and prevaricators themselves.
Meh. I say it's a push.

Yes, he was vetted not long ago when conservatives rightly pegged him as a traitor who endangered our own people.

Assange leaks led to families of American troops being threatened and harassed and God knows how many of our Afghan allies were killed because of him.
