Austyn Crites mentioned in Wikileaks

Austin Crites the 'Republican Against Trump' who was beaten up at the recent rally in Reno is mentioned in a Wikileaks release.

Link Deleted
You can find his information in row 55 of the 1st tab in the excel doc linked to in this WikiLeaks page. The tab is titled "Street Addresses". The document was created by the shadow group "global intelligence" company Stratfor.

Perhaps someone can figure out what this spreadsheet is (people who bought one of Podesta's books "The Next Decade" or Stratfor's CEO's book?) Someone in this tweet mentioned that Crites had ordered one of Podesta's books and had "I'm With Her" on his Facebook page.



What is know about him at this point (from Heavy):

They are collecting names of people who buy books FFS. One step from burning them.

Also to clarify, I'm not in any way criticising Austyn Crites but find it interesting that a registered Republican came to Wikileaks attention.

Sigh, where to start ....

Wikileaks are not collecting name of people who bought some obscure book on geopolitics.

This guys name is on a customer list that was part of a 5 MILLION e-mail dump from Stratfor. No great Wikileak conspiracy going on. If you knew anything about Julian or Wikileaks you would know how silly and off the mark you comment is.

Content curation can lead to censorship. If your goal is transparency, you release what you have.

Just this very minute watched Guardian video of him being interviewed. [link:http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512591902]

He seems genuine, concerned about the country and very anti-Trump. Maybe he's a good guy with a conscien

Ty as he is known to family and friends is a very genuine person with a conscience. He also happens to be a very well read, well informed and highly educated individual who speaks several languages, and who has traveled to as many as 50 nations and resided in several for various periods of time. He comes from a family of modest means (his father is a pastor). He is a hardworking and industrious person who financed his undergraduate and graduate education (MBA U Chicago) through hard work and scholarships. He is a compassionate young man who has devoted many hours to charitable and civic activities. He is the last person on earth who would suggest the use of violence as a means to achieve any object. it doesn't surprise me that he was called out by Donald Trump and attacked by others attending the rally. It is Ty's fear of Trump inspired fascism that motivated him to oppose Trump and to publicly disclose his opposition.

You sound like you know him. I wish Paul Ryan and many other Republicans had half the guts that Ty has.

Police intervened and saved Austyn Crites. Then they held him in a bathroom for two hours, keeping him away from the press and reporters.

I'm trying to find a short video clip of Trump saying,

"We have one of those guys from the Hillary Clinton campaign. How much you being paid, fifteen hundred dollars? Alright, take him out."

No luck yet, but the full rally tape is online, and the clip starts at 1h 52m 20s.

Just imagine how much safer the situation would've been, if everybody in the room had a gun.
