Wikileaks founder Julian Assange said he would release “authentic” information about the Donald Trump campaign like his organization did with information about Democrats.

“If anyone has information that is from inside the Trump campaign, which is authentic, it’s not like some claimed witness statement but actually internal documentation,” Assange said in an NPR interview that aired Wednesday. “We’d be very happy to receive it and publish it.”

When asked whether he had emails from the Trump campaign or the Republican Party, Assange dodged, saying, “We don’t want to accidentally scoop ourselves.”

The leak of emails from the Democratic National Committee led to the resignation of Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz as well as three high-ranking DNC officials.
