Ohhhh, interesting. The Gore Vidal is at least a double entendre as is the okay sign from the van. And, incidentally, Gore Vidal was related to Jackie O throough her other Janet's 2nd marriage to an Auchincloss, which made Vidal her step-brother. He had a serious feud with the Kennedys, which made things awkward for Jackie. Her confidant, at least for a long while, was Truman Capote, who ultimately sided with Lee and eventually lost both Bouviers, but his feuds with Vidal? Infamous. Capote ultimately shunned for revealing the inner thoughts of the New York 70s jet set, which included, among others, the owner of CBS and his wife. So it's this: Capote and Vidal were territorial pissing about who knew the most....
Trump--I don't know much about Wikileaks. Pamerla's righteous tweets. And so, it is to the autists that the victory goes--as it should be, yes? These warriors of the brave new world, who've sacrificed themselves to riddles and tech. Thanks for posting.
Ty, Vidal,s whole life was public. There is a lot of data on him, background, his family, mil.service, sexuality, political, literary works. A French newspaper Le Figaro said that the public intellectual Vidal was "the killjoy of America" but that he also was an "outstanding polemicist" who used words "like high-precision weapons."

Vidal has skeletons, apparently he was involved in a conference about man-boy love, and NAMBLA was created shortly thereafter. Sauce: IPOT's 4/12/19 show on YouTube.

I thought Pamela went in to change disguises with him, like Mission Impossible. Then when he was done, they'd switch back.

Whistleblowing platform WikiLeaks has released a fresh 88GB 'insurance file' to the web in anticipation of a mysterious upcoming announcement – but what could be lurking inside? While the content of the elusive torrent file remains unknown, speculation is rising it may be linked to the promised data on presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The file, which serves as a 'deadman's switch', is locked with 256-AES encryption and can only be opened by a second decryption key held by WikiLeaks. Previously, the organisation has uploaded similar files which reached a whopping 400GB in size – promising to release the data should anything happen to the website or its exiled editor-in-chief.
First posted to the web on 17 June, WikiLeaks posted a link to the file alongside the message: "Protect our coming publications". While the group did not elaborate further on what upcoming leaks would be, Assange has recently touted plans to released fresh troves of data from the personal email server of Clinton. He told ITV: "We have upcoming leaks in relation to Hillary Clinton. WikiLeaks has a very big year ahead."
These statements were made before a suspected Russian hacker dubbed 'Guccifer 2.0' sent files compromised from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to the WikiLeaks website, which likely only added to the mass of compromised, and potentially sensitive, information.
After the hack at the DNC Guccifer, who is suspected to have close links to the Russian government, released a selection of files on a WordPress-hosted website, however also told The Smoking Gun via email the full cache had been sent to WikiLeaks. The full scope of the stolen documents remains unknown, however it seems unlikely that text-based files alone would amount to 88GB.
As noted on Heavy.com, a Reddit thread about the Insurance file speculated about what could be in the data dump – if anything worthy at all. "WikiLeaks said they have Hillary's emails to release soon. Today they posted this 'insurance file'. This usually implies they will have a release coming soon and this file is the backup in case the government or other people try to prevent it happening. It's thus fair to assume this file is the emails," wrote one user.
Whatever the case, until the second decryption key is released, no-one other than Assange knows what exactly is in the files. However, while so-called insurance files have been used in the past, they have not always remained private.

And now we have 70+ UK MP’s lobbying the Home Secretary to honour any extradition requests from Sweden for Assange to answer to (previously dropped) accusations of sexual assault. Notable that no extradition request from Sweden is actually in place yet, but would indeed seem UK government is overly keen/anxious to honour Sweden’s potential request but not the actual existent extradition request from the US

There's no reason to trust the current assange after D.A.K. occurred.
It should be interesting to see what happens though.
