John Podesta's Tweets Tweak WikiLeaks' Julian Assange

Clinton campaign chief John Podesta has fired back at Julian Assange for leaking his private emails by poking fun of the WikiLeaks founder in a series of taunting tweets.

Assange — holed up in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for four years after facing rape charges and in fear the U.S. will extradite him — has nonetheless released Podesta's private emails.

As The Hill reports, the emails released have contained campaign strategies to Podesta's secret to cooking risotto — none of which have been election-shaking bombshells thus far.

So Podesta fired back Friday with tweets showing him preparing food at a rally for the Democratic presidential nominee:
