No idea if this is true but the plausibility of the claim speaks volumes about the times we live in.

That lawyer has lousy timing. Where was this info* a month ago when he was being impeached?
*If true. I mean, sure it sounds true, but, ya know.

Quick! Everyone! Put a huge amount of faith into an substantiated claim by…Julian Assange?…and trust that he’s the savior we’ve all be waiting for to come rescue us! We can make a little room on the bench with Mueller, Avenetti, Bolton, etc. I’m sure he’s genuinely interested in helping out the US and restoring stability and norms to our system of government and has no other agenda, so don’t bother checking.

What I’m hearing is that Assange is against saying the DNC hack was an inside job when under oath.

unfortunately for the GOP it all amounts to the same thing no matter what…
Assange has demonstrated zero interest whatsoever in doing anything that could hurt Trump.
Astute observers may remember that Assange and Wikileaks had all kinds of dirt to share related to the Obama administration and the DNC’s activities during the 2016 election, but has come up suspiciously short on dirt that could hurt Trump or the GOP even though the Trump administration is by any reasonable measure the leakiest bunch of incompetents in the history of Washington.

True enough, but my guess is he’s just as obsessed with his own self interests as Trump, in which case the optimal timing for protecting those interests seems to have passed!

It simply didn’t occur to them. Not that it would have mattered. The senate has shown us where their loyalties lie, and it’s not with justice or the American people.

It’s getting so that I’m reluctant to even look at my news feed/scroll, for fear of whatever latest dumb fuckery has happened.
