Speaking of the Dark Web, a large cache of documents relating to a French Presidential candidate on the eve of the presidential election, Emmanuel Macron’s tax shelters in the Cayman Islands were shared to 4Chan from the Dark Web yesterday. WikiLeaks posted to Twitter that it is examining these “tens of thousands emails, photos, attachments up to April 24, 2017–around 9Gb in total,” to confirm whether or not they were a “practical joke”, to use their own words, because “Who benefits? Timing of alleged dump is too late to hit vote but will surely be used to boost hostility to Russia & intelligence spending.”
Meanwhile, France’s equivalent of the US’ Federal Election Commission (FEC), la Commission National de Contrôle de la Campagne Électorale en Vue de l’Élection Présidentielle (CNCCEP) snapped very quickly into action in support of their favored candidate by warning individual journalists not to publish the “Fake News” from this “fraudulently obtained data”, as doing so may expose such authors to the legal ramifications of violating “several penal codes.”
I’m somewhat happy to observe that vestiges of certain freedoms (notably, the First Amendment) apparently non-existent in France still survive in the US, as a public threat of this nature coming from the FEC would be unthinkable.
In this clip, we see photographs of Macron’s offshore bank statements. WikiLeaks has so far confirmed that the metadata of at least one of these documents “corresponds to Cannon printer which costs over $100k”.
After WikiLeaks’ initial post, “#MacronLeaks: A significant leak. It is not economically feasible to fabricate the whole. We are now checking parts,” their most recent twitter update at the time of this writing, posted at roughly 9AM EST on Saturday is: “assessment update: several Office files have Cyrillic meta data. Unclear if by design, incompetence, or Slavic employee.” Ironically, WikiLeaks may actually end up proving the involvement of Russian hacking in this case but there is not enough information available as of yet to state anything with certainty in this developing story.
France’s Presidential Elections will be held tomorrow.
Everyone knows the French don’t have a good track record of choosing the right leaders. Most of their past presidents have been charged with corruption, having off shore bank accounts etc. It can easily be searched online. The hackers expose the corruption the people already know exists. These elitist, wealthy crooks should be investigated, arrested and put into prison. Political globalists will always protect their own turning a blind eye. Just don’t expect the US tax payer to bail them out military wise or financially. US blood and money was spilt enough during the last two World Wars.
Macron is allegedly a closeted homosexual and his associate bought hard drugs, according to more details revealed in the hack: http://gotnews.com/breaking-macronleaks-show-emmanuelmacron-gay-mailing-list-top-aides-buying-drugs-online/
There Are No “Macron Leaks” in France. Politically Motivated Hacking Is Not Whistleblowing

Here’s some news for the alt-right activists in the United States behind a disinformation campaign aimed at getting Marine Le Pen elected president of France by spreading rumors about her opponent, Emmanuel Macron: The French do not much like having their intelligence insulted by Americans.

The Intercept forgot about the files on UMBRAGE recently released in WikiLeaks Vault 7, whereby “fingerprints” from unrelated parties can be injected in order to incriminate them: https://forbiddenknowledgetv.net/vault-7-cias-umbrage-group-faked-russian-hacking/
This “leak” is allegedly the work of US far-right hacktivists: “It’s the anti-globalists trying to go global,” said Ben Nimmo, a senior fellow of the digital forensics research lab at the Atlantic Council, a think tank, who has studied the far right’s recent efforts against Macron and others in France. “There’s a feeling of trying to export the revolution.”
