Was Assange threatening to release information on Drumpf?

 

[RustyShackleford]

Not that I know of

Julian might have just straight up played himself.

I read on another from that people should not be surprised by these developments.

Trump is known for screwing his contractors

 

[seandon23]

Da sweet irony

 

[RustyShackleford]

I am going to point and laugh at Assange, because his dumb *** played himself

But I just know Trump and the DOJ is gonna use some disgusting draconian interpretation of some law to try to get Assange. So I might hope it fails just because the Pandora's box that might be open if he is successful.

Sometimes it sucks being a liberal, forever having to put the greater good over your pettiness.

But best believe if I catch Assange in the streets we gonna shoot a fair one.

What's gotten into this clown all of a sudden? Distancing himself from Trump for a possible governor run?

U.S. Representative Jason Chaffetz, the Republican chairman of a House committee with broad investigative powers, said on Thursday that it is possible he could leave office before his term finishes next year, The Wall Street Journal reported.

"My future plans are not yet finalized, but I haven't ruled out the possibility of leaving early," Chaffetz told the Journal a day after the Utah congressman announced he would not run for re-election in 2018.

Chaffetz's staff in Washington, D.C., and in Utah did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

In Utah, officials have begun running informal scenarios on how and when to hold a special election should Chaffetz resign, but have not been formally notified of the congressman's intentions, Mark Thomas, the state's director of elections, told Reuters.

Thomas said his department in the office of Lieutenant Governor Spencer Cox was basing the informal information-gathering on Chaffetz's statements to local media that he might leave office early.

"We don't know what he's planning," Thomas said. "This is more informal, just wanting to know ourselves and be prepared."

Chaffetz, a conservative Republican who was first elected to the House of Representatives in 2008, gained prominence as head of the committee that investigated Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while she was U.S. secretary of state.

Chaffetz's remarks on a possible early departure from office were first reported by KSL Radio in Salt Lake City.

Chaffetz, 50, in the past had considered running for a U.S. Senate seat. A former Chaffetz aide on Wednesday told Reuters the congressman may run for Utah governor in 2020, though no firm decision had been made yet.

If he has any dirt on Trump I hope he releases it before he gets arrested. I think this announcement is an effort to cover tracks but that's just me with a tin foil hat on.

 

[rillo561]

Something is going on there, I'm not buying the governor run story. I sure hope Democrats show up in 2018

 

[Majorbread]

I think this is all coming full circle. Chaffetz tied up in Russian web, Assange wanted for being in cahoots with Russia about the DNC hacks and Wikileaks in general etc

 

[noskey]

No way he'd be planning to leave office 2+ years ahead of a governors run, with no explanation, if he didn't have fire all around him. There's gotta be more to this story.

Hehe.

More foolishness from seSSions.

What's new here? Dude cannot understand that what made the US a hegemon was its ability to draw people from everywhere and to make them work together (not being carpet bombed 70 years ago also helped).

He would gladly give up the geopolitical advantage that Hawaii represents if it meant not counting all those Pacific Islanders as Americans.

 

[frink85]

With all the hassling of judges that block EOs and then the shout out to Erdogan getting that dictatorship rolling I hate where this is trending

Baffling to me that he's putting out all these EOs and any critisism is hating but Obama was a dictator. Smh
