Wikileaks Warns It Is Launching "Phase Three" Of Its Election Coverage
30
October, 2016
On
Sunday night, Wikileaks enigmatically tweeted that it would launch
“phase 3 of [its] US election coverage" in the coming week.
The site put politicians on notice Sunday evening in a tweet that
also included a plea for donations.
“We
commence phase 3 of our US election coverage next week. You can
contribute: https://shop.wikileaks.org/donate @WLTaskForce" the
whistleblower website announced moments ago.

As
the Hill noted, Wiki did not provide information about what the third
phase entails or if there are still more revelations to come. As a
reminder, Wikileaks' founder Julian Assange currently finds himself
in the Ecuador embassy where his internet access has been revoked for
the duration of the presidential campaign to avoid the appearance of
intervention.
Wikileaks
supporters, now including a number of disgruntled GOP nominee Donald
Trump and Bernie Sanders supporters, promptly replied with tweets
expressing hope that phase three would ultimately damage Democratic
presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign. User “CorruptMedia”
responded with a Photoshopped estimating what CNN coverage of Clinton
being escorted to jail would look like.
A
new archive of Clinton-related documents would further irk a campaign
still reeling from FBI director James Comey's announcement on Friday
that new emails related to the Clinton server probe had been
discovered.
But
there is at least some reason to believe Wikileaks could release
material that is not solely Clinton related. Julian Assange, the head
of Wikileaks, has stated that he would publish information from Trump
if the site were sent any.
Wikileaks
has already posted hacked emails from the Democratic National
Committee and Clinton campaign chief John Podesta: the former led to
the resignation of former DNC chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz after it
was revealed that the DNC was actively scheming to prevent Bernie
Sanders' nomination; the former has led to a series of dramatic
revelations into the strategic operations of the Clinton campaign,
with the most damaging emails exposing the Clinton Foundation and
WJC's consulting outfit Teneo as an "influence-peddling"
pay-to-play organization as noted in "Doug Band To John Podesta:
"If This Story Gets Out, We Are Screwed""
