    Sen. Paul has substantial influence with President Trump, but is it enough to make this happen?

    Here is a snippet from Assange's interview with Russian Times. It sounds like Assange could help clear Trump:

    I say it happens. At least I would like to see it myself. I don't consider Assange an enemy of the US, just an enemy of corruption. If I am wrong about that, please clear it up for me and everyone else. That said, I have always felt like Wikileaks was doing people a favor by shedding light on corruption in government.

    People only question Wikileaks' integrity when it suits them to do so.

    Thoughts?

    I'm up for it, let him spill the beans on his secrets.

    I think what he has to say is more important then simply locking him in a cell and not knowing.

    I agree they're running any and everybody out there to take down Trump.

    Sunshine is the best disinfectant.

    Lots of bacteria in a swamp.

    Which is why Rand Paul deserves the best security detail.

    Lots of lefties have tried to kill him.

    I think it is a good idea. I wonder if he will tell us he got the DNC emails from Seth rich?

    I think it is very likely that Assange would not answer questions publicly. What do you think?

    and this bernie supporter...

    [​IMG]

    James T. Hodgkinson, the man identified as shooting a Republican member of congress and four [​IMG] others on Wednesday morning, was a small business owner in Illinois who defined himself publicly by his firm support of Bernie Sanders' progressive politics -- and his hatred of conservatives and President Donald Trump.

    This is based on CNN's review of Hodgkinson's Facebook profiles, public records, and three years of impassioned letters to his local newspaper.
    "Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co." he posted on his personal Facebook page on March 22.
    "Republicans are the Taliban of the USA," he posted in February.

    Note that we hear the same arguments on this forum daily from the left.

    I really have no idea. It's a pair of shoes I just can't imagine myself wearing. I don't know enough, and what I know is only what is distributed. I would think if he had the goods it's a good leverage to get immunity. I just wonder what the evidence and all the cases are against him actually is.

    Why would anyone believe anything coming out of the mouth of Assange,he's about as believable as the liar in chief Dirty Donald.

    They gave immunity to all of Hillary Clinton's scumbag minions, and they didn't even have to testify!

    Maybe he just made up a bunch of emails and said they were from the DNC?

    Who cares what Rand Paul says about this?

    Julian Assange isn't going to set foot out of that embassy. He had a whole through of police sitting there waiting to lock him up for crimes in several countries.

    He may very well take out Hillary also.

    That right there would be worth the cost of a Trump, I get Pence so no loss to me.

    Are you someone who thinks Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden are traitors, or is this just convenient because Wikileaks has dirt on Hillary?

    I would certainly like to see him deposed under oath, especially about 2016...

    Trump connects with Rand ‘at gut level’
    Enemies on the 2016 campaign trail, the Kentucky senator and the iconoclastic president have developed a quiet Washington friendship.

    I like her too, but I am a Paulite from way back, so I support Paul's son Rand. But, as far as winning elections and getting swing votes, Haley has identity politics on her side.

    One would especially believe Wikipedia because they are in the business of exposing government crimes and misbehavior.

    The ones NOT to believe are perjurers like Brennan, Powell, Rice and quite a few others.

    The ones TO believe are the whistleblowers who have angered the government.
