...Burisma emails targeting Biden as an 'October surprise,' report says

US intelligence analysts suspected at least as far back as last month that a mixture of hacked and forged emails from the Ukrainian natural-gas company Burisma Holdings might be leaked online as an "October surprise" in the 2020 US election, The New York Times reported Wednesday.

News that Burisma had been hacked first surfaced in January. The Times reported then that the GRU, Russia's main military-intelligence agency, was responsible for the breach and that its hackers had been trying to access Burisma's servers since at least November.

After US intelligence identified plans to dump stolen emails, analysts contacted "several people with knowledge" of the Burisma hack, The Times reported.

The paper said the analysts were concerned "Burisma material would be leaked alongside forged materials in an attempt to hurt" the candidacy of the Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden.

Earlier Wednesday — the month after US intelligence was said to be aware of plans to release the hacked and forged material — the New York Post published a dubious story about a "smoking-gun email" between Biden's son Hunter and a top Burisma executive.

It said the email dated from when the elder Biden was vice president and Hunter Biden was serving on the board of Burisma.

Though the authenticity of the email remains unverified, Trump and his allies have seized on the report as proof of their allegations of corruption against the Bidens, Burisma, and the Ukrainian government.

Yup. That is why they had to work some magic on Twitter and Facebook. Needed some time to catch up.

Muh, Russians.

“Everything I don’t like is russian disinfo”


Again, this excuse is insane.

Did russian operatives drop off hunter’s laptop to the computer repair shop?


Are the pictures fake?

LOL

They had this story ready to leak because the FBI knew about these emails and wanted to have a cover story in case they got out.

What these people have yet to explain are the crack pictures of Hunter Biden that were also on the hard drive. That proves legitimacy to whatever is on there.

True. Those aren't pics you just grab off a dude's Facebook or Instagram. Then again, we are dealing with an unusually unusual character here....

Didn't the Biden campaign already admit that yeah, he may have met a Burisma official and he just forgot about it? I thought I saw that earlier.

A laptop that the FBI had possession of in DEC of last year is now considered to be Russian disinformation in favor of Trump?
