Julian Assange, CIA Assassination Plot Claims
Julian Assange recently spoke about alleged CIA plots led by Mike Pompeo and Bill Barr to assassinate him while he was in the Ecuadorian embassy. The hosts express skepticism, arguing that if the CIA truly wanted him dead, they could have easily used a sniper during his frequent balcony appearances.
The arrest of Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian embassy is analyzed for anomalies, including his physical appearance and the specific Gore Vidal book he was carrying. Speculation is raised regarding whether the individual removed from the embassy was a body double used to facilitate a clandestine extraction of the real Assange.
The Guardian, Paul Manafort and Julian Assange Meeting Claims
The Guardian published a report alleging that Paul Manafort met with Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian embassy in London multiple times between 2013 and 2016. WikiLeaks and Manafort's legal team immediately disputed the claim, with WikiLeaks offering a million-dollar bet that the meeting never occurred. The report is scrutinized for its reliance on a single "well-placed source."
Julian Assange Questioning and Whistleblower Protection
Swedish prosecutors have finally questioned Julian Assange inside the Ecuadorian embassy regarding rape allegations from 2010. Despite this development, Assange remains in the embassy due to fears of extradition to the United States. Meanwhile, the EU is discussing new mechanisms to "protect" whistleblowers, which the hosts suspect is actually a way to control them.
CNN Email Authentication, Julian Assange and Outro
CNN commentators questioned the authenticity of the Podesta emails, suggesting they might be "doctored" by Julian Assange or Russian intelligence. The hosts mock the network for claiming it is the candidate's responsibility to make the emails a campaign issue. The episode concludes with the "Drone Again" song and a final "adios mofos" sign-off.
Julian Assange, Sean Hannity Interview and Technical Issues
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange appeared on Sean Hannity's program to discuss upcoming document releases related to the Hillary Clinton campaign. The interview was marred by technical difficulties, including a significant audio hum and poor chroma key effects from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. Assange confirmed that information would be released in multiple batches, potentially starting the following week.
A Swedish appeals court has rejected Julian Assange's request to withdraw an arrest warrant, maintaining that he remains a flight risk. Assange's legal team argues that Swedish prosecutors should question him at the Ecuadorian embassy in London to move the investigation forward.
Julian Assange, CNN Escape Scenarios, and London Airspace
CNN's coverage of Julian Assange's potential escape from the Ecuadorian embassy in London is ridiculed. The report suggests scenarios involving helicopters on rooftops or smuggling Assange in a crate. The hosts, drawing on aviation experience, explain why landing a helicopter in central London is impossible and mock the lack of a garage at the embassy.
