Now, apparently, it’s on.

Can Assange turn it around for Trump? Wikileaks boss WILL release ‘damaging information’ about Hillary tomorrow after initially cancelling ‘October Surprise’ speech from embassy balcony

by Darren Boyle and Khaleda Rahman

 

  • Julian Assange had originally planned to address the world from the balcony of the Ecuadorian embassy in London on Monday
  • He was due to speak at the tenth anniversary of the founding of WikiLeaks 
  • Assange will instead speak video link to an event in Berlin on Tuesday
  • The organisation earlier released information hacked from the Democrats 
  • It came as a new report claimed Clinton had proposed a drone strike to take out Assange in 2010 

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange cancelled a planned appearance to mark the 10th anniversary of his organization from the balcony of the Ecuadorian embassy in London over security fears on Monday.

He had been planning to give a speech – amid claims he was about to release damaging information about Clinton which some claimed could be an ‘October Surprise’ which would swing the presidential election.

However, Assange, who is wanted by Swedish authorities for questioning in connection with an alleged rape, will make an announcement via video link to an event in Berlin on Tuesday morning.

In August this year, Assange told Fox News that he was holding information on Clinton which yielded ‘some quite unexpected angles, that are quite interesting, some even entertaining’.

He said he would release the information before the November 8 election.

Interesting timing in terms of the overall 2016 presidential campaign, as well as the Tuesday vice-presidential debate between Mike Pence and Tim Kaine.

Also: I wonder if Hillary Clinton considering a drone strike on Julian Assange in 2010, when she was Secretary of State, was a factor in the Wikileaks release?

My. What will be the content within?

Will or will not Julian Assange unload on Hillary?

julian-assange-wikileaksI’m hearing yes he will.

I’m hearing no he won’t.

YES has been in the news for the past two months.

‘October Surprise’ Thwarted? Wikileaks Cancels Highly Anticipated Tuesday Announcement Due to ‘Security Concerns’

by HeatStreet Staff

Wikileaks has abruptly canceled a much-anticipated announcement on Tuesday, according to NBC News. The announcement had been expected to be founder Julian Assange’s long-promised document dump on Hillary Clinton.

NBC’s Jesse Rodriguez reported that the Tuesday announcement — which was to come from the balcony of London’s Ecuadorian Embassy, where Assange has sought sanctuary for years – was canceled due to “security concerns”.

So: who “got” to Julian Assange either with cash or explosives or blackmail?

Assange appeared on Fox News last month, repeating his assertion that Wikileaks has damaging documents on Clinton and suggested WikiLeaks may soon release “teasers”. More than three weeks later, that release has yet to take place.

Assange himself has also recently hinted publicly that low-level DNC staffer Seth Rich, who was murdered this summer in Washington DC, had been the source for Wikileaks’ document dump on the DNC. And that Rich’s alleged role in the leaks was linked to his death.

Why pull back now? “Security concerns” had not been much of a concern earlier. Why are they now?
