Wikileaks has abruptly canceled a much-anticipated announcement on Tuesday. The announcement had been expected to be founder Julian Assange's long-promised document dump on Hillary Clinton.

NBC's Jesse Rodriguez reported that the Tuesday announcement — which was to come from the balcony of London's Ecuadorian Embassy, where Assange has sought sanctuary for years – was canceled due to security concerns.

Wikileaks has not said when it will now make its announcement.

    His people were justifying it by saying that it proves he is the right choice for tax reform [nbcnews.com], because he is a master of loopholes.

    Then shouldn't his tax accountant be running for President?
