    Facebook admits it blocked wikiLeak links, but won't say why.

    So what would happen if Hillary did get arrested, hypothetically? (I do hope that isn't actually warranted as Assange claims). Would the party just need to nominate someone else? If so, how would this be done?

    Arrested for what?
    No idea. I'm just referring to Assange's claim that his next leak will contain something that will lead to her arrest. No clue if that's true or not.

    Resignation Not Enough, Wasserman Schultz Forced to Drop the Gavel, Too

    http://www.commondreams.org/news/2016/07/25/resignation-not-enough-wasserman-schultz-forced-drop-gavel-too

    In the wake of leaked DNC emails and amid growing rancor between Clinton and Sanders supporters, the disgraced chairperson will have no further role at this week's convention

    One day after she announced her resignation in the wake of the #DNCLeak scandal and just hours after being booed by angry party delegates earlier in the day, news broke early Monday afternoon that Debbie Wasserman Schultz will not gavel into session this year's Democratic Party Convention.

    Despite saying earlier she would relinquish her post only after presiding over the convention, Wasserman Schultz spoke with the Sun Sentinel from her home state of Florida and said: "I have decided that in the interest of making sure that we can start the Democratic convention on a high note that I am not going to gavel in the convention."

    The official start of the convention in Philadelphia is scheduled for 4 PM EDT.

    According to the Sentinel, Wasserman Schultz asked Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, secretary of the Democratic National Committee, to take her place though as of this writing it remained unclear who might actually take her place.

    As Common Dreams reported earlier on Monday, Wasserman Schultz, who announced Sunday that she would step down after leaked emails showed party officials working throughout the primary season to undermine the insurgent campaign of Bernie Sanders, was greeted by boos and derision while making remarks at a breakfast for the Florida delegation.

    The news that Wasserman Schultz would not, in the end, have any visible role in the convention came just as Bernie Sanders was delivering remarks to approximately 1900 delegates gathered for the convention. "We have made history," he told those gathered, but the level of party "dis-unity" remained palpable when even many of his most ardent supporters could be heard booing when he declared how important it was to elect Hillary Clinton as president.

    I'm afraid that's backwards. The emails are a distraction so we don't watch what our enemies are doing...and it's important that an outside force doesn't reach into the White House.

    For as fucked up as the Republicans are, this shit here and all the pissed off Bernie supporters, make the GOP look like the fucking Brady Bunch. If Assange is holding something bigger than this, which he would probably release in October if he's smart, then she's done for. It'll be Trump all the way after the Dems cannibalize themselves voting for 3rd parties that can't win.

    In fear of what?
    President Obama sending in his U.N. troops to take away American's guns?
    Death panels?
    ZOG?
    NWO?
    The Rothschilds?

    So that's not newsworthy? Just a conspiracy to distract the voters? Will anything that is reported on from here until November be worthy of news time without being labeled as a distraction? If the Cubs win the world series for the first time since 1908, will that just be just a distraction planned out by the dnc?

    I didn't think it was that difficult... Russia, the FBI and Trump, because we need to focus on them and not the screwy presidential candidate at the forefront. And her good friend who just resigned from DNC chairwoman but got an immediate promotion to honorary campaign manager. But there was no bias or anything.

    Carry on!

    Can't argue with that. Again, if anyone on the right, media or otherwise, would have come up with some bullshit theory about Clinton and the Russians being responsible for hacked emails, they'd be laughed right off the face of the planet. It's insanity if someone like Alex Jones has some loony theory like this, but perfectly plausible if the shoe is on the other foot. That's rich.

    Interim DNC chair has just issued an apology to Bernie Sanders saying it is not what the DNC represents and that we are sincerely sorry.

    Who cares if Russia hacked it, does that mean these never happened?

    This should go to show how important email security is, and someone that can't manage such a thing should not be running a country.

    Ok so Trump will president are you ok with that , or do you have someone else in mind ..it's either him or her who will it be !
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....
