Just a coincidence?

 

PARIS — WikiLeaks says that founder Julian Assange’s Internet access has been cut by Ecuador, which has been granting him exile in an embassy. Few other details were immediately available.

 

Assange has been up holed up at the Ecuadorean Embassy in London for more than four years after skipping bail to avoid being extradited over sex crimes allegations.

 

The cramped quarters haven’t prevented the Australian transparency activist from working and WikiLeaks continues to deliver scoops, including revelations that have rattled Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president as the U.S. election enters its final stretch.

 

Calls, texts and emails left with WikiLeaks weren’t immediately returned Monday. A woman who picked up the phone at the embassy said: “I cannot disclose any information.â€

 

The group later Tweeted that Ecuador had cut off his access and blamed it on recent revelations about Clinton.

 

Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry released a brief statement that didn’t mention the Internet cut off, but reaffirmed its decision to grant Assange asylum.

 

“Faced with the speculation of the last few hours, the Government of Ecuador ratifies the validity of the asylum granted to Julian Assange four years ago,†the Foreign Ministry said. “We reaffirm that his protection by the Ecuadorean state will continue while the circumstances that led to the granting of asylum remain.â€

 

London’s Metropolitan Police declined comment.

Candidate Trump has now successfully outed himself as the swine that he basically is . He might have understood by now that he will loose the election and blames as usually unspecified diabolic powers to fabricate the result of the vote . Being paranoid might be his personal issue but he is going to undermine democratic common sense .

Assange - kick him out on the street.

 

Trump - will dig his own ditch to obscurity.

 

Hillary Goldman Sachs - will attempt to fuck us and our families (not just 'mericans, but all over the world) and probably succeed before getting impeached, assassinated or lynched, or all three.

Survey Shows Voters Getting Stressed Out By Election 2016

 

 

 

WALNUT CREEK (CBS SF) — New evidence shows that Campaign 2016 is having an emotional impact on people, stressing many out and, in some cases, even ruining relationships.

 

The fighting and acrimonious campaigning between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump has gone on for months over television airwaves and across the Internet.

 

“This election is one of the nastiest ones that I’ve seen,†said voter Randall Piona.

 

“It’s like two high school kids fighting back and forth passing bad notes,†agreed voter Antrone Bradford.

 

Studies are indicating all the election drama is starting to take its toll on the voting public.

 

According to a new survey from the American Psychological Association, nearly half of Americans say the 2016 presidential election is stressing them out.

 

“It has become emotional. It has become polarized,†Dr. Douglas Haldeman of the American Psychological Association.

 

Dr. Haldeman said the stress comes down to how we are processing the information.

 

“Because of the emotional tone of this campaign we’ve bypassed the part of our brain that does the rational logical thinking and gone straight to the emotions,†explained Dr. Haldeman.

 

And the campaign is triggering emotions for just about every group. According to the survey, the election stress cuts across demographics and party lines.

 

The anxiety is so bad for some they are turning off their computers and phones and turning away from social media.

 

“I just really don’t use it as much. Its just really inflammatory,†said Walnut Creek voter Kay Kensington.

 

“There’s definitely a lot of people who saying things like, ‘If you don’t agree with my political beliefs or you don’t have same political views that I do, I am going to have to unfriend you.’ And I think that’s because the candidates are extreme,†said voter Lauren Edberg.

 

But Dr. Haldeman says you may not want to burn bridges, though you should try limiting your exposure to election coverage.

 

The American Psychological Association recommends voters try to avoid conversations that could turn into confrontations, control their own actions and keep your eye on the big picture.

 

“Remember whatever the outcome, this country will survive,†said Dr. Haldeman.

 

His message: keep calm and remember the bitter end of the election is only three weeks away.

(I'm wondering if it will end even after the election.)

This groping is getting out of hand.

 

Why can't these women just take a good grope and appreciate it?

 

“A woman is accusing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas of having groped her in 1999.â€
