Today was supposed to be the day that Julian Assange ended Hillary Clinton’s chances at the White House, emphasis on supposed to, with a big reveal of damaging new information from WikiLeaks. Except that’s not what happened and the early-morning presentation turned into what amounted to a 10-year-anniversary highlight reel and fundraising pitch with nothing at all on Clinton:

Assange tried to claim that he’d been misquoted by the U.S. media:

Alex Jones from InfoWars.com was particulary incensed at Assange’s lack of new information to bring down Hillary Clinton, reportedly calling the WikiLeaks founder a “cuck” and a “butt plug”:

Best troll ever: Assange asking why I'm up at 4am, while I'm wondering why I'm up at 4am, after he told me to be up at 4am. #OctoberSurprise
