Julian Assange, the fugitive founder of WikiLeaks, is accusing Hillary Clinton and her presidential campaign of "trying to whip up a neo-McCarthyist hysteria" in an attempt to silence her political and media opposition. Assange made the accusation during his Thursday interview on The Sean Hannity Show.
In an earlier interview with The New York Times, Assange had accused the "American liberal press" of "erecting a demon that is going to put nooses around everyone’s necks as soon as she wins the election" by defending Clinton and failing to thoroughly cover the mountains of evidence of the Democratic nominee's corruption.
"The Democrats are always speaking about how terrible McCarthyism was, and it was in many ways," Assange told Hannity. "But at least the USSR actually existed then and there were actually Russian-influence campaigns which were serious. What we're seeing now is Hillary Clinton and her campaign trying to whip up a neo-McCarthyist hysteria."
Assange went on to say that Clinton's new McCarthyism is based around the spurious notion that her political opponents, both left and right, are all in league with Russia.

This goes along with the idea several Democrats had sometime back about "licensing" journalists and actually defining who was and was not considered a journalist.
I also agree with TrueBrit about Assange and Trump. The stated goal of Assange / wikileaks was to expose government corruption and in this one area Hillary Clinton fits that bill to a T.
I noticed some left wing media outlets have started to push the narrative that Assange is a frontman for Russia. They are trying to link the 2 prior to the next data dump, with prominent Democrats warning the next dump will contain Russian lies. Sounds like damage control via lying to me.

Uh oh.. I thought he said he has information that will lead to her arrest, but then says as soon as she wins the election.

Nothing he's released so far has stopped Hillary's momentum
Guess he's trying a new/different tactic.

In related news, Russia and The U.S. have reached a
breakthrough agreement today, John Kerry and Putin
made a deal.

It does appear Assange is correct on this, the Russia Putin hysteria
has been useful for Clinton to use against Trump.
Even with this news, I expect Trump Putin hysteria to continue.

That momentum is slowly being reversed. The damage is being done.

Uh, NO.
Let's face it, he's holed up in Ecuador because he didn't want to face a rape charge in Sweden. The whole "US government wants to abduct me" nonsense is just smoke to me. He's a blowhard who set up a clearing house for hacked data.
