Note: Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), an organization of former CIA, FBI, National Security Agency, and military intelligence officers, technical experts, and analysts. And not a right-wing cabal or a group carrying water for the Republican Party.

Long story shortened:

VIPS stated that “direct access to the actual computers is the first requirement” in any valid forensic analysis.

Yet Comey led FBI AND subsequent Mueller inquiry only relied on third party CrowdStrike's (who also worked for DNC) own forensic analysis on face value.

The whole article is well worth your read.

This is the meaty part of the article -

(excerpt)
So it is that Trump’s reference to CrowdStrike had to have sent shockwaves through the Democrats and their media enablers. Unless the DNC has followed Hillary Clinton’s example by using BleachBit or hammers on its computers, it is still possible that an honest direct access forensic analysis coupled with a simple records search by the NSA could prove that — in addition to Mueller’s finding of no evidence of collusion by the Trump campaign with Russia — the whole Russian hacking story was a scam orchestrated by the DNC and the Clinton campaign.

No wonder the Democrats and their media co-conspirators are running around with their hair on fire.”(end excerpt)

Hillary will enter the 2020 race just before she is arrested
Picture the normies watching Hillary being taken away. The timing has to be perfect.

There was no hack, the DNC data was leaked by Seth Rich.
They murdered him for it.
Russia,Russia, Russia was invented to cover that up.

Good article. Valid points.

That said, the first person to pick up on this at a national level was Rush Limbaugh. He made these points on his program the very next day and made it the major point of his opening segment.

I dare say Limbaugh’s program reaches far more people than this writer could ever dream of reaching.

Nonetheless, the more people who are aware of this the better.

First, VIPS concluded that the DNC data were not hacked by the Russians or anyone else accessing the server over the internet. Instead, the data were downloaded by means of a thumb drive or similar portable storage device physically attached to the DNC server....

This is the weakness in the VIPS analysis. If you are going to copy an entire directory or directories containing files, doing so file by file is not the way. Instead, you would create an archive file (zip, tar, rar) and copy that, removing the original when done. When later expanding the archive, the file creation dates would look like a high speed transfer (22.7 megabytes per second).

This doesn't happen on Unix/Linux based systems. It happens on Windows if you are not careful.

VIPS is an anti Semitic group of Lyndon LaRouche folks that supported John Kerry and were involved in helping Valerie Plame against Scooter Libby. LaRouche is usually associated with Germany.

For that reason I strongly suspect their version of the DNC server story is about as trustworthy as the Democrats’ .

The Democrats acted like there was evidence of the OPM hack on their system. What was it Maxine said about the Democrats having a setup where they know everybody and everything?

Office of Personnel Management data breach - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Personnel_Management_data_breach

In June 2015, the United States Office of Personnel Management (OPM) announced that it had been the target of a data breach targeting the records of as many as four million people. The final estimate of the number of stolen records is approximately 21.5 million.

We have known about the Crowdstrike-DNC-Hillary connection, and the FBI cover up for years.

No one arrested. No one indicted. No one sent to prison.

And no one will be.
