Julian Assange and Russia
During the press conference, Assange tried to back away from accusations linking him to Russia and said the WikiLeaks operation was “a neutral, digital Switzerland.”
However, some experts question the organization’s motives, pointing to alleged ties between WikiLeaks and Russia.
"Everything they have done over the last few months suggests they are operating as a front for a different leaker [Russia],” Ryan Kalember, SVP of Cybersecurity Strategy at Proofpoint, told the Guardian .
Kalember added the apparent ties to the Kremlin and WikiLeaks’ record of publishing identifying information about individuals has dwindled trust in the organization.
“No one in the information security community really trusts him and his motives,” he said. “I think at this point Assange is effectively acting in the service of the Russian government, whether intentionally or not,” said Kalember.
Assange has been viewed as favoring Trump after WikiLeaks released hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta last year. Top U.S. intel officials believe Russia hacked Democrats to help President Donald Trump win the election last November. A Russian state-backed group called Cozy Bear is believed to be behind the DNC hacks last year. The release of hacked documents had a major impact on Clinton’s presidency bid, leading her to lose the election to Trump.

He speaks about flooding a country with fake news. To play on peoples emotions. To feed what they perceive is wrong and incite them into destroying something rather than fixing it. That's you and SIG, 1kiki.
I can see I need to go through old threads and remind others of when I was right, and they were wrong. Here is another example.

So do you live in Trump City or Trumpland?
I see, you want to garner all my personal information. Sorry kiki, err, comrade.

Facebook Will Tell You Whether You Saw Russian Propaganda During The 2016 Election
The social media behemoth announced on its blog today that it is in the process of building a tool to allow users to see which posts from the Russian Internet Research Agency—now the Federal News Agency, or FAN—appeared in their feeds during the 20-month period between January 2015 and August 2016.
The move is part of the company’s “ongoing effort to protect our platforms and the people who use them from bad actors who try to undermine our democracy,” wrote a Facebook spokesperson in an un-bylined post.

Putin wants to show his citizenry that democracy is no better than what they have. It's what keeps most Russians from taking to the streets to protest for something better.
Well, as this shit plays out with Trump the checks and balances of our democracy, are showing the Russian people our system and our rule of law is much better than what Putin offers. What he offers is no better than what is offered in the Middle East; bad and corrupt government.
