There is another possibility here. The “leak” maybe the real leakers inside our Government trying to cover their tracks.
Another possiblity. Just a fake sotry planted by the DNC. We know from Wilileaks that Journalists and the DNC manufacture story lines.
If you go back to a few weeks before the election, several credible people associated with the intelligence community came out and said that the source of Wikileaks documents was the US intelligence community, people who were sick and tired of Obama and Hillary scoffing at the laws and acting without regard for national security. I tend to believe them. For one thing, Wikileaks “leaks”, they don’t source anything. And an “inside source” is much more credible than Russian hackers, just look at what Snowden was able to do as a contract employee.
I was looking on the DUmp however and while a) they are idiots and b) they are in denial, they are absolutely posivitely convinced that Trump won because the Russians helped him. So in the long run it’s probably a good thing that this “probe” of Obamas be done, as it at least provides an opportunity for the issue to be examined.
I suspect the left and right will agree on global warming sooner than we will be of one mind about Russian hackers however.
