10 Shocking Stories the Media Buried Today

#10 - Julian Assange Exposes CIA's Plot to Assassinate Him in First Public Hearing Since Release

Assange revealed how the CIA attempted to assassinate him within the embassy, tried to obtain DNA from his infant son, and had a CIA asset permanently track his wife.

“We revealed the CIA's vast production of malware and viruses, its subversion of supply chains... CIA Director Pompeo launched a campaign of retribution,” Assange said.

He went on to explain that under Mike Pompeo’s leadership, the CIA had drafted plans to kidnap or kill him, while also targeting his colleagues in Europe with theft, hacking, and planting false information.

These jaw-dropping claims are backed by over thirty current and former U.S. intelligence officials, as well as evidence from a legal case against some of the CIA agents involved. Assange emphasized that the CIA’s actions against him, his family, and his associates show just how far intelligence organizations are willing to go when it comes to transnational repression.

Assange made it clear: “The CIA’s targeting of myself, my family, and my associates through aggressive extrajudicial and extraterritorial means provides a rare insight into how powerful intelligence organizations engage in transnational repression. Such repressions are not unique. What is unique is that we know so much about this one due to numerous whistleblowers and to judicial investigations in Spain.”
