  • WASHINGTON — When the WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, appeared on a video link from Europe a month before the 2016 presidential election and vaguely promised to release a flood of purloined documents related to the race, the head of Donald J. Trump’s campaign, Stephen K. Bannon, was interested.

    He emailed the political operative Roger J. Stone Jr., who had been trying to reach him for days about what Mr. Assange might have in store. “What was that this morning???” Mr. Bannon asked on Oct. 4.

    “A load every week going forward,” Mr. Stone replied, echoing Mr. Assange’s public vow to publish documents on a weekly basis until the Nov. 8 election.

    The email exchange, not previously reported, underscores how Mr. Stone presented himself to Trump campaign officials: as a conduit of inside information from WikiLeaks, Russia’s chosen repository for documents hacked from Democratic computers.

    He acted as a middleman between russia and the trump campaign to release illegally obtained campaign emails to help trump swing 10,000 morons in Michigan.

    While he didn’t pull a lever that said ”Make trump win” he knowingly aided the illegal collusion between trump and russia in a paper-thin election.

    He’s not “innocent” in any ethical sense.



  • So - it had all the hallmarks of a russian disinfo campaign, but it really was hunter’s laptop and that same laptop drive was given to Guiliani where he watched CP and kept it and the smoking gun of his influence in a Ukrainian company’s influence was . .

    What the fuck is the actual story. My one remaining MAGA person is convinced of all of that because “a” laptop was introduced in his gun trial that the defense “did not object to.” Therefore it’s all real just like Guiliani said. This article from a source I don’t know says he really did drop off a laptop for repair. Did he? Wtf is the actual story?
