I have yet to see one shred of evidence that shows that the Russians hacked Podesta or the DNC, or was involved in the Wikileaks' publication of the stuff. Nothing... zilch.

I'm sure he knows that too... but facts don't matter to these people.

DNC Operative and Pathological Liar Spews More “Muh Russia!” Bullcrap.

The successful operation is the one being run on the people of the United States by our own intelligence services.

The collusion and fraud that put Obama into the
Presidency was the height of deception.
There has been no bigger scam.

The Obama/Clinton/EU engineered coup in Ukraine doesn’t qualify as “covert”.

This guy is a disgrace. When the CIA was heroically battling communism, they were vilified. Now, these little toads are given respect. Hayden should be in jail.

Yep, its right up there with the Bay of Pigs.

Or is he saying that Trump and Trump Jr are smarter than Allen Dulles, George HW Bush and the rest of them put together?

What a load of crap. Podesta gets targeted with a phishing mail like every one of us does all the time. An aide checks with his IT guy who accidentally types that the email is “legitimate” and Podesta should immediately change his email password. The (stupid) IT guy tells the (stupid) aide to click the link in the phishing mail giving the attackers to the Podesta email account.

Soon after, WikiLeaks began releasing 10 years of his emails.

The emails are stored on either GMail or Clinton’s non-government server.

The DNC refuses to turn over the email server to the FBI for forensic investigation, but hires their own firm.

So, you have stupid democrats falling for a simple phishing attack; democrats illegally keeping email off government systems; democrats that won’t enlist the FBI to investigate; corrupt democrats keeping a ten year log / history of their corruption and crimes in emails; and a decade of Clinton and general democrat illegal acts revealed via the email trove.

Where, exactly, are the Russians in this? All of this was preventable if democrats obeyed the law, weren’t corrupt, and followed simple, well known email security practices. They are 100% responsible for their own undoing.

Biggest and most successful clandestine operation in history? Ridiculous!

Are they saying without saying that Russia does have those 30,000 emails that Hillry had bleached? I thought what Wiki leaked was from Podesta’s email?

[why did the Democrats deny access to the FBI?]

Because then we would have seen just how badly the Hillary machine screwed over Bernie during the primary amidst other skullduggery.

That is not what happened to me. A big long black SUV with tinted windows and little Russian flags on each side of the vehicle drove up to my house, four burly KBG agents got out, grabbed me, put a blindfold on me, and threw me in the back. I was taken to my precinct headquarters (Putin was driving.) They took my blind fold off, dragged me out of the car, marched me to the voting booth, and each pointing a gun at my head, in each cardinal direction, with thick Russian accents, ordered me to vote for Trump! Afterward they gave me an “I voted” sticker and took me home. Then they went next door and threw my neighbors into the the SUV and took off. This happened all along my entire street!

UNtil someone has proof the DNC was hacked I say Seth rich turned the files over to Assage and then was murdered by friends of the DNC, I mean after all, Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s brother is a lawyer in the office investigating Seths murder.

62 million American voters colluded with Russia to elect Donald Trump. That’s a YUGE conspiracy!

There were three covert operations at play in the last election and its aftermath:
1) Operation False Poll Data;
2) Operation Illegal Voting;
3) Operation Destroy Trump, operated by the US intel community and media distortion complex.

“The Russians” is a tactical element of #3.

Hayden should be challenged to explain how he knows the Russians took the DNC emails, and how he knows Seth Rich did not. Or does he claim Seth Rich was working for the Russian government?

Hayden asserted the Russians took the DNC emails. Had nothing to do with Hillary's.

Wikileak'd DNC and Podesta, both. I don't believe there has been an accusation that Podesta was hacked by Russian phishers.

As for Hillary, the 33,000 emails are still missing.

Hillary Clinton Email Archive

On March 16, 2016 WikiLeaks launched a searchable archive for over 30 thousand emails & email attachments sent to and from Hillary Clinton's private email server while she was Secretary of State. The 50,547 pages of documents span from 30 June 2010 to 12 August 2014. 7,570 of the documents were sent by Hillary Clinton. The emails were made available in the form of thousands of PDFs by the US State Department as a result of a Freedom of Information Act request. The final PDFs were made available on March 3, 2017.

Also, why didn’t he do something about it when he was with the NSA?
