Hillary Clinton the centraliser that inter-connects all these different cogs.
Julian Assange

Julian Assange
Power factions fight back with lies.
Julian Assange
Power is a thing of perception. They don't need to be able to kill you. They just need you to think they are able to kill you
Julian Assange
