“Illegally Shoot the Son of a Bitch” — Clinton Strategist Calls for Assassination of Julian Assange on TV
Claire Bernish August 10, 2016 23 Comments
Hillary Clinton strategist Bob Beckel appeared on on Fox calling for the assassination of Julian Assange — a blatant urge for violence against the Wikileaks founder in direct contradiction of every possible natural and government law.
Wikileaks, of course, has published several damning caches of documents showing Clinton in none-too-favorable light — including emails from her controversially-employed private server as well as communications from the DNC which proved her campaign colluded with mainstream media.
“I mean, a dead man can’t leak stuff,” Beckel chillingly noted of Assange. “The guy’s a traitor, a treasonist, and … and he has broken every law in the United States. The guy ought to be — and I’m not for the death penalty — so, if I’m not for the death penalty, there’s only one way to do it, illegally shoot the son of a bitch.”Hillary Clinton strategist Bob Beckel called for WikiLeaks editor Julian Assange to be assassinated. #DNCLeak pic.twitter.com/9L2ixl24Er

That’s right: A Democratic National Committee strategist — knowing Clinton’s reputation has been profoundly damaged by revelations brought to light by Wikileaks — feels Assange’s defiance of the law is so egregious, someone should take it up a notch by “illegally” assassinating the organization’s founder.
Apparently getting caught red-handed as the DNC now clearly has been, requires an altogether insane response of death outside the provisions of law.
But, as if Beckel’s outlandish statement weren’t inflammatory enough, senior staff writer for Politico Michael Grunwald took to Twitter to compound the madness, which Wikileaks happily retweeted.“I can’t wait to write a defense of the drone strike that takes out Julian Assange,” Grunwald arrogantly asserted.America's journalistic class showing class on assassination.

Politico, it must be noted, appeared prominently in the DNC leak for working in tandem with Clinton campaign staff to ensure articles would display Hillary in the best light possible — one journalist even shared an article with Hillary’s campaign staff prior to submitting it to editors.
Prior to these explosive calls to hunt down and kill Assange, the Wikileaks head appeared on Dutch outlet Niewsurr, where he seemed to suggest murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich had been a source of the leaks so infuriating Beckel and Grunwald.
“I’m suggesting that our sources take risks and they are — they become concerned to see things occurring like that,” Assange said of Rich, who was murdered early in the morning in what authorities have thus far insisted was a robbery — though there were no witnesses to his killing to back up or refute that claim.
“We have to understand how high the stakes are in the United States,” Assange continued when pressed by the host if he was implying foul play in Rich’s untimely death. “Our sources are — you know, our sources face serious risks. That’s why they come to us. So we can protect their anonymity.”
Assange has repeatedly refused to reveal Wikileaks’ sources, as a rule — a policy the organization prides itself on — and in keeping with that, refused to reveal with certainty whether or not Rich had indeed been the source of any leaks.
Rumors about Rich have certainly run the gamut on social media, but several suspicious circumstances must be considered. As Underground Reporter noted, Rich had reportedly been slated to testify in one investigation of Clinton. And according to the Washington Post, Rich had been investigating possible instances of fraud and voter suppression perpetrated by the DNC.
Assange, as The Free Thought Project noted, has additionally offered a reward of $20,000 for information leading to the conviction of Rich’s murderer.
Perhaps the call for Assange’s assassination by a Clinton lackey shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given the aforementioned extenuating circumstances — but it certainly lends yet more credence to growing sentiment that Hillary Clinton and her cadre of establishment supporters will quite literally stop at nothing to ensure she reaches the White House.

And that is what we are dealing with. Nearly everything on television and no small amount of what is on the internets is bullshit excreted from one echo chamber or another to serve the interests of Religion, Oil & War, And yes, sometimes you have to choose between Hitler and Stalin. Millions had to make that decision (if they could) in Belarus Ukraine and surrounding areas. Millions did not survive (see the book Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder - I say see because it is actually a very hard book to read all the way through). It fills in the blanks in great detail of Col Kurtz's the horror, the horror. So I don't see any value in defending or attacking HRC or DT anymore than Der Fuhrer or Uncle Joe. At least not here. RI is here, IMO, to undress them both and see just how their boils ooze. One is not the answer to the other. Neither are the answer to anything. Assange has become a toy mouse full of catnip and go back to the old discussions on him and there's plenty of convo regarding just what kind of "agent" he might really be. I feel in my bones He is useful right now to whoever can spring him loose.

Pulling the "unamerican" card, really focusing on Stein's foibles rather than the leftist thrust of Clinton critics, blatantly lying about vaccines, wifi, her tax returns and income, etc.
It is the same players that we saw enabling reckless behavior in 1998: Citigroup, the Fed, and the Clinton-led Wall Street Democrats. And, as Jesse notes, here we are again, almost eighteen years later, watching the same short term, selfish characteristics by the big money banks putting the entire economy of productive individuals at risk again...
