The data covers the work of organisations HazteOir and CitizenGO, comprising documents which date from 2001 to 2017 like spreadsheets of donors and members, strategy and planning documents, letters, financial charts and legal and training documents.

Isn’t WikiLeaks a compromised Russian op now? Of all of the right-wing organizations out there, they target these two?

@acastcandream except for the fact that’s an absolute lie. he said - repeatedly - that they didn’t receive anything about him that hadn’t already been published and widely disseminated. that isn’t the kind of lazy ‘journalism’ they do, repeating old news that wasn’t that important to begin with. they have standards/criteria for what they publish. they do real journalism.
he also said, repeatedly, that choosing either of them was like trying to choose between gonorrhea and cholera. he’s also NOT AMERICAN. so, not about his personal politics.
he’s also spoken several times about having to be the public spokesperson for wikileaks. it was not about fame, but, he was internationally famous, and beloved and admired, well before 2016. so again, not about fame.
and of course he selected and chose what and when to publish. he was the publisher. duh. that was his job, to make those decisions.

I’m not confident it is a Russian op, but Russia has always fueled both sides of the political spectrum. They don’t necessarily want one side to prevail, they just want their opponents to be divided.
In the last 7 years they’ve been pretty one sided on the political propaganda spectrum
They’re definitely in favor of the right, but it was only a few years ago that a Russian-backed bot fa was found to be running both right-wing and left-wing propaganda accounts. They know that if we’re busy fighting amongst ourselves, we won’t pay as much attention to everything that they’re doing.

It’s succeeding beyond Dugin’s wildest dreams.
Maybe they don’t target anybody and just publish what gets into their hands and they see as worthy of publication. They are not the leakers they are the publishers.
They are also the editors. These documents have been redacted to comply with privacy laws. As publishers, they also decide the date of publication… which in this case is quite “curious” (see my other comment).
Well obviously not, if they’re spilling out alt-right secrets.
