The Russians have completely denied hacking the DNC.

Wikileaks, including Assange, have clearly stated that they did not get their information from the Russians.

And yet the democrats keep trying the accusation, much like they tried for some time to hang on to the accusation that a film on the internet was responsible for Bengahzi.

Headline of the Day Poll

Why are Democrats saying Russia interferred with the presidential election?

They are concerned with the integrity of the system

They are trying to delegitimize Trump’s presidency

Putin must be laughing his ass off for all the credit he is being given.

The whole narrative that information somehow influences elections in improper ways is a dangerous and inflammatory statement regarding the rights of people in a free society. The leaked information is a totally separate issue than how the information may have been obtained illegally. The court of pubic opinion is not a legal courtroom where evidence can be suppressed if the evidence even if true were obtained by illegal methods. The press and the democrats are treating the leak as if this were a court of law, and that somehow the information, that they do not deny as being true is an illegal influence to pubic opinion., which is a lie.. Instead it is the public duty to consider the truth when voting, it is not the governments job to censor or to tell the public what to use or not use when voting.

It is no coincidence that the left is also pushing the narrative that they hold the fact checking keys as to what is real news, and how inconvenient truths are not to be considered and in this case hinting as even illegal. Censorship along with their talking points the leaks were obtained illegally, and furthermore by an adversary ,( unproven ) the Russians, the public has no right to consider the information to make their minds up about who to support, and such an influence is illegal.. again,,, this is a lie , a totally false and dangerous precedent for a free society.

Consider the source of these accusations, the CIA headed by John Brennan; You think that wasn’t by intention? Listen to this: In his 1980 graduate thesis at the University of Texas at Austin, Brennan denied the existence of “absolute human rights” and argued in favor of censorship on the part of the Egyptian dictatorship. “Since the press can play such an influential role in determining the perceptions of the masses, I am in favor of some degree of government censorship. Inflammatory articles can provoke mass opposition and possible violence, especially in developing political systems.” ( from world net daily)

Therefore, patriots on the right, be it media or bloggers need to really understand what the charges is the left is seeking remedy for. They are accusing the people of not having the right to consider evidence, undeniably true information , yet illegally obtained in the court of public opinion. The goal they seek is censorship, and if their remedy for leaks if can get away with it, overturning the free and fair election of Donald Trump. However, in a free society , information is not a crime to consider as part of forming public opinion,,, this false narrative needs to be addressed and put it an end..

It was a leak and not a hack. The Russians were not the leakers.
