Except that months beforehand there was evidence of a Russian hack of the DCCC and RNC, and the FBI had pursued court orders into Trump's team's links to this, and are apparently still doing so.

I mean we know for a fact that Susan Rice requested unmasking of Trump officials prior to the election.

I was interested to read Shattered, but if they are trying to sell that provable lie as fact then I will pass.

It's in the book, Shattered that Mook wanted to start blaming Russia before muh Russias was a thing.

Keep in mind (also in the book) someone in the Clinton team (ONE clearly written about in the book)had a MILLION dollar bonus written in their contract if they won.

So it behoofed these young kids running this campaign to find every excuse under the sun to compensate the loss-- for their future endeavors.

Ironic that Podesta was the fool who willingly gave his Gmail password to a phishing scammer which opened up all of his DNC related emails for Wikileaks to release.

Of course he would want to divert attention away from himself and his part in helping Trump win.

And Comey was trapped in the middle. Does he side with Obama who appointed, and possibly Trump who could fire him, or repay all the debts owed to the Clintons. That's why he's been all over the place, and dragging his heels. He wants to see who winds out politically, so he can know how to close out the case


If that's true then I guess Comey isn't the man of integrity everybody made him out to be. I still can't decide if it's a lack of integrity or a lack of competence.

On the night of the election when Podesta first addressed the attendees in the room, he urged them to go home and that more would follow soon. I had a strange premonition at that time that he was going to "spirit cook" some kind of bullshite challenging the election result with a lawsuit or some bullshite. So, I was not surprised when he invented the "Russia hacked the election" propaganda -- he knew very well that the MSM would help him propagate the BS.

All the talk about Russians, by the media & Hillary & the DNC miss one important aspect: 90% of what was leaked would not have happened had Hillary not set up her own private server & then lied & lied & lied about it. The press basically ignored the DNC's, Podesta's, and Hillary's leaked attack on mainstream religion.

This is a bald-faced lie. The RNC denied being hacked and only relented much later.

So, a pedophile/devil worshiper and an incompetent bone smuggler came up with this bullshite.


How irrelevant does this make our media that this hasn't been exposed before now?

The show of verbal tap-dancing he put on in last year's hearings indicates to me that he's plenty competent at that which he sets his mind to.

So.....

Their only "proof" is provided by a private company that the DNC hired whose only evidence is an open source hacking program that the CIA said they themselves have the capability of framing someone with said source program.

quote:

Crowdstrike is the cybersecurity company hired by the DNC to determine who hacked their accounts: it took them a single day to determine the identity of the culprits – it was, they said, two groups of hackers which they named “Fancy Bear” and “Cozy Bear,” affiliated respectively with the GRU, which is Russian military intelligence, and the FSB, the Russian security service.
How did they know this?

These alleged “hacker groups” are not associated with any known individuals in any way connected to Russian intelligence: instead, they are identified by the tools they use, the times they do their dirty work, the nature of the targets, and other characteristics based on the history of past intrusions.

Yet as Jeffrey Carr and other cyberwarfare experts have pointed out, this methodology is fatally flawed. “It’s important to know that the process of attributing an attack by a cybersecurity company has nothing to do with the scientific method,” writes Carr.

This is false, even just considering the public evidence gathered to date.

Even so, the NSA does not need public security firms to do its investigations. Especially considering the NSA watched the attackers as the hacks were ongoing.

As a starting point:

JAR-16-20296A - GRIZZLY STEPPE – Russian Malicious Cyber Activity

AR-17-20045 - Enhanced Analysis of GRIZZLY STEPPE Activity

The second link includes a list a open source reports that provide additional detail.
