Oh, the same John Brennan who voted for the Communist Party in 1976?

I will wait until Chris Cuomo confirms whether or not this is Fake News.

Everyone knows it was our intelligence agencies contracting this out. This was a government job from the start and the reason they did Hillary dirty was obvious.

Not really. It sounds like every intelligence agency is in agreement with everything but motive
The only thing that everyone is in complete agreement on is that the media tried to influence the election in Clinton's favor. We wouldnt know that without Podesta's emails being leaked so good for the campaign insider that leaked them to Assange

So you're just going to ignore the link in the OP of this thread?

Considering that an FBI official went before the House Intelligence Committee and said that Russia was behind the hack I think it's more likely that the article in the OP is either wrong or misinterpreted what Comey said.

Why don't you blame Obama? Millions of government employee personal records were hacked a few months back. Where was the outrage? Where was the urgency to build a firewall? Obama knew Hillary had an unsecured server, where was the order to stop it?

Liberal policy: Never let an opportunity to create a crisis and then take advantage of it.

So, was it Russians?

Or people in Russia?


Civilian Russian's hack shite all the time.

Just because it "originated" in Russia, doesn't mean it was government sanctioned.

I also thought VPNs could be used to make it look like it came from somewhere it didn't, like Russia.

Link? If it was months ago, could it be that new information has been uncovered and now the FBI Director doesn't think the Russian government was behind the DNC hacking?

its very easy to get traffic to look like it originated in a different spot that it actually did.

However, hackers will leave finger prints when they hack that may offer additional clues. A big one is hackers are really into bragging about their biggest hacks.

LINK


The generally accepted form is to provide the first few or more important paragraphs from a link, along with the link itself.

Just providing a headline and a link is kind of off-putting. Like your information is only click-bait.

Cool. They hacked the DNC but not the election.
Oh hell, we already know the DNC. That's how we learned they are the ones that fix elections.

We are being told the info from those hacks are fake news. If it's fake news it must have come from a fake Russia, amIrite?

Link is on the first page. Takes you to a business insider article that refers to a House Committee meeting which occurred in early December.

It might be possible to google up a John Schindler article on Observer.com where he says some of the Blumenthal e-mails to Clinton had text lifted directly from NSA messages.

Clinton and Blumenthal should certainly go prison for this. But according to that article the NSA was beyond pissed that this happened. Their stuff is supposed to be secret, way secret. When Guccifer gets hold of it, they don't much like.

Well, Hell. Here it is.

Hillary Has an NSA Problem

The FBI has been investigating Clinton for months—but an even more secretive Federal agency has its own important beef with her
By John R. Schindler • 03/18/16 8:45am

The FBI isn’t the only powerful federal agency that Hillary Clinton needs to worry about as she plots her path to the White House between scandals and leaks. For years, she has been on the bad side of the National Security Agency, America’s most important intelligence agency, as revealed by just-released State Department documents obtained by Judicial Watch under the Freedom of Information Act.

‘What did she not want put on a government system, where security people might see it? I sure wish I’d asked about it back in 2009.’

The documents, though redacted, detail a bureaucratic showdown between Ms. Clinton and NSA at the outset of her tenure at Foggy Bottom. The new secretary of state, who had gotten “hooked” on her Blackberry during her failed 2008 presidential bid, according to a top State Department security official, wanted to use that Blackberry anywhere she went....As I explained in this column in January, one of the most controversial of Ms. Clinton’s emails released by the State Department under judicial order was one sent on June 8, 2011, to the Secretary of State by Sidney Blumenthal, Ms. Clinton’s unsavory friend and confidant who was running a private intelligence service for Ms. Clinton. This email contains an amazingly detailed assessment of events in Sudan, specifically a coup being plotted by top generals in that war-torn country. Mr. Blumenthal’s information came from a top-ranking source with direct access to Sudan’s top military and intelligence officials, and recounted a high-level meeting that had taken place only 24 hours before.

To anybody familiar with intelligence reporting, this unmistakably signals intelligence, termed SIGINT in the trade. In other words, Mr. Blumenthal, a private citizen who had enjoyed no access to U.S. intelligence for over a decade when he sent that email, somehow got hold of SIGINT about the Sudanese leadership and managed to send it, via open, unclassified email, to his friend Ms. Clinton only one day later.

NSA officials were appalled by the State Department’s release of this email, since it bore all the hallmarks of Agency reporting.

The contents of Sid Blumenthal’s June 8, 2011, email to Hillary Clinton—to her personal, unclassified account—were based on highly sensitive NSA information..."

All you knuckleheads need to stop falling into the Russian trap.

I have no problem stating Russians hacked the DNC. So what?

How about we reopen discussion of the information in the email. Do the same folks hating the Russians, hate on whistleblowers?

I guess we all owe big tobacco an apology because someone broke a binding legal document to dump all their secrets.

Russians hacked the DNC. Doesn't mean a thing other than the DNC needs better security and they should be ashamed first for trying to secure the nomination for Hillary and second for being dumb enough to put everything in email.

This isn't a story. Quit feeding the trolls. Factual information was released. Not some massive propaganda parade. Not breaking into the voting machines and changing votes.

Oh wait....looks like we know for a fact Dems did commit fraud in Detroit. Looks like we do know for a fact DHS tried to hack into the GA voting system.

Russians released facts. Dems actual hacked the vote.

No link like that shows up for me on my iPad. That's okay. I've lost interest anyway.
