A brief Facebook Conversation -- The below statement was written to me:
"Michael Weddle, Wikileaks works for the Russians."
Below, my response:
You must have forgotten the days when Guardian reporter (and current Russiagate distortionist) Luke Harding referenced anti-Russian cables that Wikileaks released attacking Russian leaders Dmitry Medvedev and Vladimir Putin, as well as the role of the Russian mafia.

Harding, by the way, is like a British equivalent of Rachel Maddow here in America when it comes to matters concerning pushing anti-Russiagate and anti-Wikileaks propaganda.
Check out this video in order to determine the validity of Luke Harding, who also wrote the anti-Russian book Collusion. Harding impresses me more as a deep state smear agent than he does a quality reporter. He certainly fails when it comes to investigative journalism.
Wikileaks does not play international favorites despite what American or British propagandists might lead you to believe. And if you think Wikileaks is solely anti-Democratic and pro-Republican, why then did it release Sarah Palin's emails? Quite simply, Wikileaks believes governments should be transparent and accountable to the people.
Julian Assange, a lifelong pacifist opposed to war, would have preferred Bernie Sanders as the US president. I also doubt that Russia, primarily concerned with its own border problems due to NATO encroachment, wanted a trigger-fingered asshole like Trump in the US White House. Putin, like Assange, would have preferred a credible thinker, someone capable of wisdom, occupying the White House in 2016.<<<
