On Tuesday, Sarah Palin apologized to WikiLeaks’ founder Julian Assange.
On Tuesday, Sarah Palin apologized to WikiLeaks’ founder Julian Assange for “condemning [him] when he published my infamous (and proven noncontroversial, relatively boring) emails years ago…”
The show of remorse was made on Facebook following Fox News’ airing of Sean Hannity’s interview with Assange, which covered a wide range of topics including Russia, DNC hacking, and the U.S. election.
Palin wrote, “To Julian Assange: I apologize.”
She continued, “Exposing the truth re: the Left having been oh-so-guilty of atrocious actions and attitudes of which they've falsely accused others. The media collusion that hid what many on the Left have been supporting is shocking. This important information that finally opened people's eyes to democrat candidates and operatives would not have been exposed were it not for Julian Assange.”
When Palin was the target of leaked information, her opinion of WikiLeaks and its founder was decidedly different.
In 2010, she called him, “…an anti-American operative with blood on his hands.”
According to The Hill, Assange has "surged in popularity among Republicans" since WikiLeaks released documents about the Democratic National Committee before the party’s convention.
