Uh oh. More evidence of conspiracy.


The transparency organization asked the president’s son for his cooperation—in sharing its work, in contesting the results of the election, and in arranging for Julian Assange to be Australia’s ambassador to the United States.



on the same day that Trump Jr. received the first message from WikiLeaks, he emailed other senior officials with the Trump campaign, including Steve Bannon, Kellyanne Conway, Brad Parscale, and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, telling them WikiLeaks had made contact. Kushner then forwarded the email to campaign communications staffer Hope Hicks.
[/i]


WikiLeaks suggested, attaching a quote from then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton about wanting to “just drone” WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange.

“Already did that earlier today,” Trump Jr. responded an hour-and-a-half later. “It’s amazing what she can get away with.”


“Hey Don. We have an unusual idea,” WikiLeaks wrote on October 21, 2016. “Leak us one or more of your father’s tax returns.” WikiLeaks then laid out three reasons why this would benefit both the Trumps and WikiLeaks. One, The New York Times had already published a fragment of Trump’s tax returns on October 1; two, the rest could come out any time “through the most biased source (e.g. NYT/MSNBC).”




Wow. One of the most damning articles proving conspiracy against the US I've seen yet. The entire Trump campaign actively worked with Russia and Wikileaks.

This implicates Trump too, because 15 mins after one of the Wikileaks emails to Don Jr. about some big stuff coming out, Trump said on the campaign, "Keep an eye on wikileaks. Something big is about to come out." Meaning Don Jr. told Trump Sr. about these communications.

Trump and his entire campaign team are going down. Absolutely no way to justify these actions.

I guess the title of this post needs changing - not a secret any more!

C'mon - anyone with a lick of common sense knows the Trump Family is a criminal organization. What we see is the Tip of the Iceberg. We will never know the full extent because at some point members will plead out in exchange for ratting out others, etc.

It's really going to come down to how many 100's of people we should jail. But, knowing the good old USA, that won't happen.

Heck - look - even in the worst case the GOP still "won"....so what's a couple people in jail compared to control of the country? Not much.

If any of them have security clearances it could be a problem, when I was doing contracting we were informed that we were not even allowed to view Wikkileaks, and to avoid even 2nd hand sources referencing it.

Yeah? If Wikileaks is suggesting Don Jr. do something for them (WHICH it appears he did) ~ then there certainly could be a problem.

The swamp has never been bigger.

According to the OP, even assuming its true at face value..

Wikileaks contacted Trump..

Thats it.. the contact info was forwarded on, nothing else occurred that we know of..

big deal

This isn't oppo research, it's called conspiracy. Sorry, Trump is going down. No amount of denial or deflection is going to help you.
