On November 30th, former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones spoke at Washington University in St. Louis. The event was billed as being 'open to the public.' Citizen journalist and blogger Adam Sharp arrived at the event and began video recording. Several people approached him and demanded he shut off his camera. Sharp actually pointed out several other people in the auditorium who had cameras rolling as well but was told he didn't have 'authorization,' implying the others did.
After Jones' speech, he took questions after giving Sharp permission to film during the speech. Sharp asked Jones about the 9/11 Truth document he signed as well as the rap song he recorded with cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal. Nor surprisingly, Jones attempted to ignore him while carrying on about migratory birds and windmills.
The good stuff starts at the 4:00 mark.

VIDEO: MOTIVES OF WIKILEAKS FOUNDER
Julian Assange, the man behind the mass release of hundreds of thousands of private cables, was in Berkeley, CA on April 18th of this year and explained the motives of both himself and his website. He sees himself in the role of anarchist. He boasts of how a small organization like his was able to take the proverbial 'scalps' of various political leaders. He considers his motives to be activism and justice. Here is where he is absolutely wrong and he shows his leftism.
As tempting as it may be to revel in the potential damage to Hillary Clinton's political career, Assange's acts are nearly certain to get innocent people killed. This is an 'ends justify the means' mentality reminiscent of all the self-righteous socialists of the past with Hillary's hero Saul Alinsky among them.
Whatever potential good may come of these leaks is erased with the death of one innocent person as a consequence.
