Pretty interesting. Jullian Assange, who is hold up under asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, is claiming he can prove that Russia did not hack the US election, did not hack the DNC computers, and was not behind the release of emails.

A Republican congressman is apparently working on a deal to grant Assange immunity from prosecution by the US in exchange for the release of his information.

Hmmm, what would that do to the Mueller probe? :hammer:

The US intelligence community had implicated Russia by name and innuendo. It would be interesting to see evidence that proves the CIA/NSA/etc wrong.

California Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher spoke to White House chief of staff John Kelly Wednesday about a potential deal with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in exchange for info that exonerates Russia of hacking allegations, according to a Friday report from The Wall Street Journal.

The Daily Caller first reported that Rohrabacher met with Assange in mid-August. Rohrabacher later spoke to TheDC and said that Assange could potentially be pardoned for “information that will be of dramatic importance to the United States.”

Assange has been in asylum since 2012 in the Ecuadorian embassy in London following sexual assault charges in Sweden that have since been dropped. However, the U.S. is reportedly investigating Assange and WikiLeaks for its dissemination of hundreds of thousands of classified documents.

The Journal reported that Rohrabacher spoke with Kelly in order to strike a deal in which the U.S. would drop the probe. The California congressman told TheDC that Assange, who promises never to reveal sources, told Rohrabacher during their August meeting that he could prove that Russia wasn’t behind the hacking and dissemination of emails from the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 election.

U.S. intelligence has pointed the finger at Russian intelligence services for the DNC email leak.
