It seems Assange played progressives big time.

IF there's anything of any significant substance allegedly planning to release during the DNC, his timing should at the very least be considered suspect.

I do believe his bias appears to be in favor of a Trump victory. Might have even made a deal with Trump for his release in the event he releases so called "indictable" evidence of criminal activity.
If that is even remotely true, obviously, I'm just speculating.

I can't describe how effed up that is. But so far as I'm aware, I've only taken a cursory glance at this latest "damning" release, it's just campaign stuff. Really nothing worthy of the hype whatsoever.

In my view he's played progressives big time.
