Actually, someone did make this stuff up.

The wikileaks tweet itself is a simple statement, neither endorsing nor opposing the nominal CIA leaks to NBC. If 
just claims the leaks happened and are illegal. The words "slams" and "opposes" were apparently added by writers at 
"The Hill".

WikiLeaks opposes leaking of CIA report

In a Friday tweet, WikiLeaks slammed the CIA for leaking information to NBC. 

"The Obama admin/CIA is illegally funneling TOP SECRET//COMINT information to NBC for political reasons before 
PEOTUS even gets to read it," the tweet read. 

An NBC report last night touted "An exclusive, inside look" at the report connecting the Russian government to 
breaches of Democratic National Convention and other servers during election season sourced to two intelligence 
community sources.

The NBC broadcast included claims that Russia attacked the White House and that Russian had dual motives in the 
attack of disrupting the campaign and revenge on the Obama administration for delegitimizing Russian President 
Vladimir Putin throughout his administration.

Wikileaks, a site well known for publishing its own illegally funneled, classified leaks, has pushed back against 
the intelligence community's determination that Russia leaked the fruits of those breaches to the site. Founder 
Assange has denied that WikiLeaks received the Clinton campaign emails from Russian hackers.

WikiLeaks and Assange have championed the dissemination of sensitive or classified in the past, publishing United 
States diplomatic cables and military information, emails from the 2014 Sony hack and internal documents from 
multiple other governments and political parties.
