Oh Wikileaks, why would you publish more material that harms the leaders of the Russian state? It's as if you don't even care that you're contradicting the constant media accounts of your pro-Russian bias. Corporate-media stenographers have families to feed!

care to try that argument again, taking into account how time works?

That's the point; WL have never had any bias. They just publish genuine documents. They don't care whose ox is gored. The ridiculous conspiracy theorizing on display for the last three years says nothing about WL and everything about USA.

Nice work moving the goalposts :)

If, being aware of everything that's happening around us, you still choose to represent reality as "ridiculous conspiracy theorizing", then you're either in a cult, or a dedicated troll, neither of which I'm interested in wasting my time debating.

Russia have been accused of various things, few of which seem credible and none of which have been associated with any evidence available to the public. Even so, they haven't even been accused of anything besides excessive communication. That's 1A. No one has to be silent if they're talking about an election. If this democracy can't handle $4700 in AdWords spend [0], it ain't really a democracy.

You're lying and gaslighting.

> The Mueller report contains new information about how the Russian government hacked documents and emails from Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

The projection is strong in this one. No evidence has ever been introduced to support any of these assertions. Mueller not only didn't write, but he never read his own report, as evidenced by his pathetic Congressional testimony about it. This testimony was almost as bad as his previous Congressional testimony in support of the existence of WMDs in Iraq. At least in this case he wasn't lying so much as struggling to follow a script he didn't understand. We could almost see Andrew Weissmann's puppet hand run up his ass. Every time any assertion in any of these reports and indictments has been challenged in court, the DoJ has declined to support it.
