Wikileaks has announced that Julian Assange's internet access had been intentionally severed by a state actor. I would assume this means they disrupted a VPN connection he had rather than just cutting all internet access to the Ecuadorian Embassy, but again details are limited.
The announcement of disruption was also preceded by multiple strange tweets of random numbers (likely crypto keys) that appear to be part of a dead man system activated by the disruption.
takyon: The full tweet states "Julian Assange's internet link has been intentionally severed by a state party. We have activated the appropriate contingency plans." Wikileaks recently released Part 9 of the Podesta Emails. Also at CNET and Ars Technica.
Update: Wikileaks says: "We can confirm Ecuador cut off Assange's internet access Saturday, 5pm GMT, shortly after publication of Clinton's Goldman Sachs speechs."
Perhaps the embassy's perennial guest has finally overstayed his welcome?

That Clinton hit squads, dispatched from their secret lair [duckduckgo.com] have taken President Rafael Correa [wikipedia.org] hostage in Quito.
He is being held incommunicado at a Clinton Foundation [clintonfoundation.org] safe house outside of the capital.
The first set of demands from the terrorist Hillary Clinton was to deprive Assange of his internet access and confine him in a broom cupboard.
It is believed that this is just the beginning, and that Correa will be gang raped and then tortured unless all demands are promptly met.
Those Clinton scum can't hide their murderous and sinister ways any more. They've been caught this time, and Ecuadorian Police [wikipedia.org] SWAT teams have been deployed to extract their beloved president before HIllary can don her strap-on and begin the festivities.
Anyone who had any doubt before should now realize just how crooked Hillary is.
Since she's hopped up on goofballs, she's lost all contact with reality and that will be her downfall.
Believe me folks, she is a disgusting cow and like I said, I wasn't impressed with her caboose at all!
In fact, I wouldn't fuck her with Rudy's dick and Chris pushing!
If that's not enough, I don't know what is!
Let's Make America Great Again!

I can confirm.... that Trump thinks about Hillary naked with a strap-on. That's one sex tape I think the Internet can do without.
Technically, lunchtime is at any moment. It's just a wave function.

Actually, I think Trump dressed up as the Gimp with Hillary going after him in a backroom sporting a huge strap-on , is exactly what this election needs :D
Fuck, if I could make that into a t-shirt and not be killed or sued into oblivion, I might be able to make some money :)
