Russians 'likely responsible' for Clinton campaign hack
Fox News.com ^ | July 30, 2016

Hillary Clinton’s campaign computers have been hacked, said sources who added Friday that the Russian government is likely responsible for yet another attack on Democrats.

The newly revealed attack comes after computer networks for the Democratic National Committee and the party’s fund-raising committee for congressional candidates were also hacked.

A trove of stolen e-mails from the party — released last week — resulted in the downfall of DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who resigned as a result of explosive revelations.

The Justice Department’s national-security division is investigating the cyber attacks. The FBI warned the Clinton campaign in March that it had been targeted by hackers, Yahoo News said.

Who the hell cares about WHO might have hacked their email servers. The REAL issue is what information was in the emails and who was responsible for not only the information, but the sloppy, typical DemocRat handling of the entire matter.

So what did we (the Russians?) really learn??

“Likely” it was the Russians. But there is a very strong incentive for the Mossal and the Netanyahu government of Israel to keep surveillance on the Democrats, who are apparently intent on betraying the nation of Israel to ISIS. These Democrat party people are not to be trusted, even in trifling things.

They don’t have projects, they have schemes. They form no government, they form regimes.

The FBI, for the moment, is like a guard dog kept tethered closely with a taser shock being delivered every few minutes. The Current Occupant has no trust of them either.

The only thing that makes any sense for this, is thinking back to what that alleged Reddit forum with the disgruntled "FBI agent" said - Hillary's been tasked by Soros to go to war with Russia.

This unbelievable story about the Russians hacking every Democrat operation everywhere in the country - except of course Hillary's email server - would give her just that sort of flimsy pretext.

Of course, if you make that assumption, then you know this election is in as much doubt as the Democratic primary and the results have been scripted and are just waiting to be released.

Maybe I'm a natural pessimist, but when the events start clicking into place like tumblers in a lock...

Anyone see Jason Bourne yet? He and his female friend trying to post documents on the Internet exposing rogue CIA operators. Closely parallels this situation....

In my view, its not so much who hacked her. The real story should be that her carelessness proves she has no regard for national security and therefore is not qualified to even be running for president. Not only that, by allowing her emails to be hacked she has exposed herself to potential blackmail.

On top of that she is a known liar. In my opinion the administration is again protecting her and the FBI is being used to put up a smokescreen for her by pointing the finger at the Russians. Maybe it was Israel; after seven years of mistreatment by the U.S., Netanyahu certainly has plenty of motives to want to even the score.

They certainly have done it if they are able to do it. They have also attempted to penetrate the Republican data and emails. It goes with the territory. The publication of the contents, though, is more likely due to people within the organization selling codewords and more. When an organization is so obviously corrupt that everyone in it knows it is corrupt then the corruption is NOT limited to the bosses nor to one set of aims. Venality drives everything from the top to the bottom of the organization. At the top the corruption is for the sake of power and all the money in the system or the world is the goal. Below that immediate profit is the desire. Anyone who is righteously incorrupt is too stupid to function. The fact that one or even two rats have been killed does not keep the others in line if the profit is sufficient.

Please see my post #26 for similar thoughts regarding Israel.

Also, agree with your second point about schemes. They don’t want to govern; they want to RULE.

The Russians are sure to have tried at least. And so for the Chinese and the Iranians and the Norks and many other governments. The idea that they are not doing this work is absurd.

It matters not WHO is doing the hacking...it’s the content of the emails that counts, all done by Hillary and her democrats.

It is ALL about a smokescreen and diversion to protect her.

To them (media) it isn’t ‘stale’ if it offers some solace to the Hillary campaign in offering up some useless diversion from the real truth.

The fact that the Obama government succeeded in whitewashing a very CRIMINAL series of acts by Hillary, EVEN WITH THE COLLUSION OF THE FBI!, didn’t sit well with the public and that they have to further obfuscate, misdirect, redirect and dissemble attention away from the underlying incompetence of anything Democrats is a testament to that.

Democrats don’t mind you finding out the ‘truth’....it’s just that they want to wait for you to find it out after you have that shackle and chain around your neck. Bunch of goddam sheep.

Rot always starts at the top. In government, the employees quietly go along with the corruption and malfeasance even if they don’t like what’s going on. The vast majority of people who work in government are personality types who highly value their job security and benefits and simply will not make waves. Its not so much about profit in this case, but your point is still valid and applies to lots of organizations.

One thing we can be certain of: this administration is totally corrupt.

The Russians are becoming too convenient a scapegoat for all these Democratic Party computer hack-ins. I think the Hillary campaign needs to be looking a little closer to home for their culprits.

None of them could find their butts with both hands and a flashlight.

Wouldn't you need THREE hands to do that?

By the way, MSM, what do these emails say?

To be literal, yes. But you could put the flashlight twixt your legs and shine it up as you look back into a wall mirror. Regardless, they seem to be oblivious to the simplest of honest and truthful actions.
