Quite true. But when did the Democrats ever concern themselves with silly notions like reputation?

At least they don’t have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore.

Why would there be anything “bad” in their emails?

The first place Russians were mention was Hillary Campaign Chair Mook saying to the press that “unnamed sources” indicated to him it was the Russians. The press printed that.

Since then, all I’ve seen is “it’s been reported that” the hack was by the Russians.

It’s not even incestuous. It’s just taking your **** and shoving it up your own ***.

Why are they bracing for bad news? If they’ve done nothing wrong, they should have nothing to worry about, right?

Right?

This is a bs article by the Slimes on a bs “investigation” by the discredited FBI.

The giveaway is the following:

“The F.B.I. says it has no direct evidence that Mrs. Clinton’s private email server was hacked by the Russians or anyone else. But in June, the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, said that intruders had tried, and that any successful intruders were probably far too skilled to leave evidence of their intrusion behind.”

So, in other words, the same Russian cyber intelligence agents who were so sophisticated that they left no discernible traces of any possible hack of Clinton's unsecured private server, left easily identifiable markers behind during their hacks of the DNC?

That, my friends, strains credibility.

Either one or the other is true, but not both.

Either the Russians are super geniuses, or they are sloppy amateurs.

Unless, of course, one narrative in one situation benefits Hillary Clinton, and the other narrative in the other benefits - surprise! - Hillary Clinton.

And the FBI shows itself as a bunch of discredited partisan hacks.

Here's another scenario:

We just had the director of the FBI tie himself in knots to find reasons not to indict Hillary Clinton for crimes related to the mishandling of classified information, which she and her aids clearly did.

And now that very same FBI is eager to run to Capitol Hill to clumsily blame the Russians, and discredit an alternative narrative much in the news in recent days that suggests the hack may have been an inside job. Because if it was an inside job, and some of those insiders ended up dead, then Hillary Clinton is facing a situation even more serious than charges of mishandling classified info.

So we're left with the question of why is the FBI suddenly so eager to protect Hillary Clinton?

In the meantime, I'll wait until someone brings the glaring contradiction I discussed above to the attention of the FBI and asks for some clarification regarding these seemingly contradictory statements.

I have a feeling I'll be waiting a long, long time.

Well, what Assange has could tremendously harm the entire field of journalism in the USA.

Remember, journalism by definition should be critical of anyone with lots of power. But the fact the MSM has pretty much become cheerleaders for the political Left shows how completely wrong that idea is--in many ways, the MSM is just about approaching of point of being equated with the Soviet-era Pravda (and the citizens of the Soviet Union clearly knew Pravda--which means "truth" in Russian--was anything but truthful).

I find it hard to believe that only the Russians have Hillary’s emails.

Not good.


Not good indeed.

Remember that just about all of the high level Obama Administration officials was using off the books Google or Yahoo email accounts to form a “secret” network to communicate candidly and covertly with each other and their allies in the media and the rest of the Professional Progressive Leftists in the foundations, charities , academia, unions ect in order to execute their multitude of hidden agendas.

A lot of what was disseminated would have been secret, extremely damaging and potentially criminal.

Turns out a lot of these accounts were not as secret as the users thought they were and a lot of hackers and espionage cyber warfare operatives were very interested in collecting their information.

This is why the Government has special, secure communications networks which are continuously monitored for hacking and illegal activity.

The entire Obama Administration has been totally compromised due to their illegal use of off the books commercial email accounts to communicate in secret. The last 7 1/2 years have been a gold mine of espionagecbecause of the unsecured emails and the black mail potential is limitless.

“The F.B.I. says it has no direct evidence that Mrs. Clinton’s private email server was hacked by the Russians or anyone else. But in June, the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, said that intruders had tried, and that any successful intruders were probably far too skilled to leave evidence of their intrusion behind.”

The DOJ, Democrats and media say the Russians hacked into the DNC.

The evidence suggests that these were internal leaks, not hacks by Russia. Assange and others have said this.

Many The government computers have been repeatedly hacked during the Obama administration.

The FBI itself has been compromised by the DOJ. The individual FBI agents are probably not corrupt but the higher level DOJ people are.

The important part of the article is:

“cyberattack that targeted Democratic politicians was bigger than it first appeared and breached the private email accounts of more than 100 party officials and groups, officials with knowledge of the case said Wednesday.

The widening scope of the attack has prompted the F.B.I. to broaden its investigation, and agents have begun notifying a long list of Democratic officials that the Russians may have breached their personal accounts.”

It is currently impossible for the average citizen to get accurate or honest information from the Obama administration or the media.

Hopefully, these leaks will make some honest information available to the American people.

Could be a wonderful October surprise.

Unfortunately, most of the Hillary supporters I know, would vote for Hillary, even if she was in handcuffs. It is a religious cult like thing.

In fact most of the Democrats I now will vote the straight Democratic ticket until the day they die and then for a couple of decades after that.
