WikiLeaks leaked nearly 20,000 emails on Friday from top Democratic National Committee officials, exchanged from January 2015 through May 2016. Several emails released show that although the DNC was supposed to remain neutral during the primary contest, officials grew increasingly agitated with Bernie Sanders and his campaign, at some points even floating ideas about ways to undermine his candidacy.
The source of the leak has not been revealed, though Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, Robby Mook, said on ABC News' "This Week With George Stephanopoulos" on Sunday that he believes the Russians were instrumental in it.
"Experts are telling us that Russian state actors broke into the DNC, took all these emails and now are leaking them out through these websites," Mook said Sunday....

Excellent. You know the Democrat playbook very well — lie, fall back, lie, fall back, lie until you are backed into a corner and then blame it on cosmic radiation or global warming.
If Donald’s supporters were as thin skinned he wouldn’t have lasted a week!
I doubt there are only 4 but The four cited are:
1)
NC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz Calls Sanders Campaign Manager Jeff Weaver an “A—” and a “Liar”
..... Debbie Wasserman Schultz, once she was notified of the exchange, wrote “Damn liar. Particularly scummy that he never acknowledges the violent and threatening behavior that occurred.”
In another instance, right before the Nevada Convention, Weaver publicly commented, “I think we should go to the [national] convention.” The chairwoman was flagged about this comment and responded in an e-mail, “He is an a—.”
2)
Highlighting Sanders’ Faith
One email shows that a DNC official contemplated highlighting Sanders’ alleged atheism — even though he has said he is not an atheist — during the primaries as a possibility to undermine support among voters.
3)
Building a Narrative Against Sanders
“Wondering if there’s a good Bernie narrative for a story which is that Bernie never ever had his act together, that his campaign was a mess,”
4)
Lamentations That Sanders Is Not a Democrat
Wasserman Schultz appeared to grow exasperated with Sanders’ desire to stay in the race when the delegate math was against him —
Let them fighht themselves straight into failure!
Experts ? If you had any of those the Russians would not have broken into your email server in the first place.
The 4 they cite are damaging, but primarily within the dem. party itself.
I think the more important revelations involve the press and they will not cover those. The revelation that the MSM is firmly attacked, Siamese-twin fashion, to the dem. party, is the real story, because that will continue long after this election is over.
There is no free and unfettered, much less unbiased, press at this point. There are media conglomerates aligned with the left that seek to tell Americans what to see, think, and do. This is the huge scandal from my point of view.
My vote goes for all those emails showing collusion between the ‘rats and the MSM - stories submitted to the DNC for vetting before going to editors, Chuck Todd and Jake Tapper contacted personally with comments on their coverage, and on - pressies involved should be called out for comment before one more Republican is subjected to one of their rigged interviews.....
“I could be wrong, but wasn’t there a report a few months ago about a “Physical Break-in” of a DNC office?”
Unless some hack was confusing the hacking of the server with a real break-in somewhere, I think it’s a case of a hack reporter not knowing what “hacking a server” means.
Yes, because Russia has always operated this way. Not.
Monica lived at the Watergate.
Was the DNC server less secure or more secure than Hillary’s private server?
Is The Russians did this, then they can blackmail Hillary at will.
My guess... either everything from the DNC server went to Hillary's server (blind copy) or someone within the DNC somehow grew a conscience and delivered.
“Paging G. Gordon Liddy, paging G. Gordon Liddy! Mr. Liddy please pick up the courtesy phone in the lobby.”
Occam’s razor: the Russians would have kept this all secret, for use as blackmail later.
So would ________________ (write in enemy or friend country, who stands to benefit from blackmail).
FWIW.
I heard that these hackers, left behind a piece of software code that would direct future emails to them.
Not aware of a claim that documents were changed or edited.
