Wikileaks will publish ‘enough evidence’ to indict Hillary Clinton, warns Assange

Wikileaks co-founder Julian Assange warns more information will be published about Hillary Clinton, enough to indict her if the US government is courageous enough to do so, in what he predicts will be “a very big year” for the whistleblowing website.

Expressing concerns in an ITV interview about the Democratic presidential candidate, who he claims is monitoring him, Assange described Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump as an “unpredictable phenomenon”, but predictably, given their divergent political views, didn’t say if he preferred the billionaire to be president.

He was not asked if he supported Green Party candidate Jill Stein, even though she said she would immediately pardon Wikileaks whistleblower Chelsea Manning if elected.

“We have emails relating to Hillary Clinton which are pending publication,” Assange told Peston on Sunday when asked if more of her leaked electronic communications would be published.

About 32,000 emails from her private server have been leaked by Wikileaks so far, but Assange would not confirm the number of emails or when they are expected to be published.

Speaking via video link from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, Assange said that there was enough information in the emails to indict Clinton, but that was unlikely to happen under the current Attorney General, Obama appointee Loretta Lynch.

He does think “the FBI can push for concessions from the new Clinton government in exchange for its lack of indictment.”

Clinton has been acting like the presumptive Democratic nominee even though votes are still being counted in California after the June 7 primary, Sanders flipped three counties in his favor, and nine superdelegates have dropped the former New York senator.

The former secretary of state pushed for the prosecution of Wikileaks, rather than the global criminals they exposed, and the organization described her as a “war hawk.”

Assange said the leaked emails revealed that she overrode the Pentagon’s reluctance to overthrow sovereign Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, and that “they predicted the post-war outcome would be what it is, which is ISIS taking over the country.”

The email scandal could become a headache as the race to the White House heats up and the FBI continues to investigate her.

Sworn testimony from officials working in the department revealed that Clinton did not “know how to use a computer to do e-mail,” instead using her Blackberry for official communications.

Clinton’s office was a designated Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), where the use of wireless devices was not permitted, leading to Clinton leaving her office in order to access emails.

Sensitive information regarding US security was sent to her private server, including information on drone strikes.

Clinton’s use of a private email account came to light in 2013, when a hacker going by the name of Guccifer accessed the email account of her aide Sidney Blumenthal.

Clinton emails probed by FBI discussed drone strike plans

Several emails between American diplomats in Pakistan and their superiors in Washington concerning scheduled drone strikes were forwarded to Hillary Clinton’s unsecured email server, according to a report. The emails are now part of a FBI probe.

Congressional and law enforcement officials briefed on the FBI’s investigation into Clinton’s email use found that the sensitive emails from 2011 and 2012, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. The emails were sent to a “computer system for unclassified matters” at the State Department, to give the agency some say in whether the drone strikes would be carried out.

Some of the emails were forwarded to Clinton, who was serving as Secretary of State at the time and using her private email server, sources told the Journal.

The messages were generally time-sensitive, with the State Department having a narrow window to give input before strikes were carried out. None of the emails, which the Journal described as “vaguely worded,” contained references to the CIA, drones, or any information about the targets, the officials said. They were not included in the Clinton email files released to the public by the State Department.

It is those emails that are now the focus of the FBI investigation into Clinton’s email practices, officials said, which is being carried out to determine if the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee broke US secrecy laws.

Since the drone program is officially secret, sources said that communications with the State Department should have been done over more secure networks, but law enforcement officials told the Journal that they don’t expect charges to result from the mishandling. Several agencies sometimes use less-secure systems to efficiently deal with time-sensitive events, an official told the Journal.
A final review of the evidence will only come after the FBI interviews with Clinton this summer, however.

Clinton’s improper use of a private email server to conduct business as the nation’s top diplomat has become a major headache for her presidential campaign. In late May, the State Department inspector general released a scathing report largely concerning Clinton’s email use, saying that unsecured communications at such a high level created “significant security risks."
