Russian intelligence officers allegedly launched a website in June 2016 to release emails stolen from Clinton campaign officials, special counsel Robert Mueller alleged in an indictment released Friday.
Mueller alleges that the Russian officers initially registered the domain for DCLeaks.com in April 2016, and launched the site [o]n or about June 8, 2016.
Starting in or around June 2016 and continuing through the 2016 U.S. presidential election, the Conspirators used DCLeaks to release emails stolen from individuals affiliated with the Clinton Campaign, the indictment reads.
The complaint also alleges that officers used the site to release documents stolen in the past, including those from people affiliated with the Republican Party.
The allegations were included in Mueller's indictment of 12 Russian military officers for the 2016 hacking of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
Mueller's investigation into Russian efforts to meddle in the election have focused on a number of other events in the spring and summer of 2016.
One of those events, held June 9, 2016, was the infamous Trump Tower meeting between a Russian lawyer and several top Trump campaign officials.
President Trump's eldest son Donald Trump Jr. agreed to the meeting with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya after British music producer Rob Goldstone told him that Veselnitskaya had damaging information on Hillary Clinton as part of Russia and its governments support for Mr. Trump.
If its what you say I love it especially later in the summer, Trump Jr. replied to Goldstone in an email.
Veselnitskaya later reportedly told the Senate Judiciary Committee that she did not work for the Russian government and only met with Trump Jr. to discuss Russian sanctions imposed under the Magnitsky Act.
Despite her testimony, she told NBC News earlier this year that she had worked as an "informant" for the Russian government.
Mueller's indictments released Friday come just days before President Trump is set to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki for a bilateral summit.
Trump has faced pressure from lawmakers to bring up Russian efforts to meddle in the 2016 election when he sits down with Putin on Monday.
Russia has repeatedly denied interfering in the election.
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said Friday that Trump was "fully aware" of the latest indictments in the Russia probe ahead of the president's trip to meet Putin.
Haahahahahaha
anybody hear a rumor that Mueller and his team’s emails and computers were hacked?
If I read the indictment right, it states that DCLeaks was used in the beginning to release the documents, and were approached by Organization 1(Wikileaks) to assist them in getting the word out with “higher impact”(page 17-18).
Yes, pretty much.
They had to work the timing, though.
So, they stalled until they could get it all going.
Russian influenced might have possibly changed 0.00001% of the vote.
But of course, that’s why Hillary lost. /rolls eyes @ liberals
Hillary clinton lost—NOT because of Russian collusion—but because she was a LOUSY candidate!!!!
She would have been an even LOUSIER President! In fact, she would have been a vicious DICTATOR, who would have destroyed eventing that was left of American liberty!!!! And she would have even destroyed the American people, by importing millions of Third Worlders and especially muslims into our country! She would have given the new “immigrants” special privileges unavailable to the pre-2017 Americans!!!!
Now we have the Hillary- and obama-controlled “abolish ICE” crowd, who want to accomplish the same thing!!! “No borders, no nations, no deportations”. Get it? These people are TRAITORS, who must be prosecuted to the full extent of the law!!!!
Thank God that we have Donald J Trump as President, and that we can fight against the “open borders” and anti-Christian miscreants and TRIUMPH over them!!!!
Let’s see Mueller’s evidence in support of this ham sandwich indictment. All of it. Now.
I hope these russians, who are likely fake and don’t even exist, have the same law firm show up in court as the last group. So far, seems those lawyers are running rings around mule-ears and his angry band of rats in court.
BTW, where was the US counter intelligence effort? Why was the GRU leasing servers all over America at the same time our FBI was playing grab-ass with Carter Page? Why did Susan Rice tell her lead cyber defender to “stand down” when he provided counter measures to the Russians?
This whole Mueller indictment (which will never be proven in court, and is timed very suspiciously to interfere with Trump’s Russian parley), is more of an indictment of Obama’s irresponsible mismanagement of the cyber defenses of America rather than any thought of US collusion. In fact no American citizens are involved.
Now it appears Susan Rice did know about Russian operations in the US, and did little about it. But I don’t trust Mueller, and this timing, and his weak indictment record. This is all Kabuki theater for Mueller’s weak hand, because in one piece of clear honesty in an swamp of muddy lies, Agent Strozk did testify that “there was no there, there”. Trump has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with this alleged Russian interference.
Russia will probably double down, make the officers available and get them lawyers who will say to Mueller infront of a judge “prove it and show us what you got and we want a speedy trial now under the constitution”. Won’t that just boggle Mueller’s mind. (since the Russians previously indicted have already given Mueller a huge head-ache by demanding the same thing, I suspect this new group will follow the same play book!)

Look up Obama’s meddling in the Israeli elections to stop Bib from getting elected!! What, no one talking about that?
Not a word abut China hacking the federal government and stealing thousands of files on federal employees
So it’s down to a choice of believing Meuller/Rosenstein and the corrupt FBI..... or believing Russia.
What a disgusting joke.
Bust em Dano, er Putin. Extradition.
I’m sure the indictments have the name, rank and serial number of the perps. I’m guessing their current location is Moscow.
FSB, GRU, military, diplomats who knows?
Mental masturbation to say Mueller did something.
5.56mm
There is no way in hell that the Russians would have preferred a strong on defense team like Trump-Pence over a very weak democrat one.
My first thought ...exactly.
That is not true. Read this,http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4034038/Ex-British-ambassador-WikiLeaks-operative-claims-Russia-did-NOT-provide-Clinton-emails-handed-D-C-park-intermediary-disgusted-Democratic-insiders.html
DCLEAKS never did anything. Never heard of DCLEAKS. !! What is DCLEAKS? There is no question it was Wikileaks and they absolutely refute their source as Russia, I predict we will be hearing from the great Julianne Assange very soon as to this bogus indictment.
