Trump's secret backer? Clinton campaign claims Putin's government has links to email hackers who have turned Hillary's coronation into total chaos
Hillary Clinton's campaign claims Russians hackers attacked Democratic National Committee computers to help elect Donald trump Campaign manager Robby Mook claims the 19,252 leaked emails were released on eve of convention to divide Democrats They wouldn't blame Russian President Vladimir Putin specifically - 'we can't know for certain'
Hillary Clinton's campaign is insisting that hackers linked to the Russian government leaked embarrassing emails from Democratic officials on the eve of the party's convention to influence the presidential election.
Clinton Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri said today that 'we can't know for certain' that the leak is the work of Russian president Vladimir Putin.
That's what security experts are allegedly, though, she said, and 'we agree that it's important for people to know that this could be why it's happening.'
The Democratic White House contender's campaign is relying on reports in the New York Times and Washington Post as the basis for the claims that the hacker who claimed responsibility for the extraordinary leak - Guccifer2 - is a puppet of the Russian government.
'Weve been looking at this very closely from both the technical and non-technical spheres,' Richard Barger, the chief information officer for cyber intelligence firm ThreatConnect, told the Post.
Barger said, 'Based on our analysis, we strongly feel Guccifer2 is linked to a Russian information operations campaign and is not the independent Romanian hacker that he claims to be.'
In the leaked emails, members of the Democratic National Committee leadership are caught trash-talking Bernie Sanders and plotting to help Clinton.
Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook seemingly placed the blame on Putin's Sunday.

“This is deflection even beyond Benghazi! Putin has to be laughing his ass off (I am).”
He’s probably watching Fox (very late at night over there), but popcorn is hard to find in Eastern Europe. Generally, Europeans consider corn animal feed.
You would think that the press would be comparing the dnc hack with hillary having an unsecure server also susceptible to hacks by the Russians instead of trying to link it to Trump...nevermind, just saw the error of my ways. Putting “think” in the same sentence as the presstitutes and the dnc was my fault.
This can be countered with the picture of bill throwing his back in laughter sitting next to Vlad.
He may not have popcorn but he’s got plenty of the best vodka.
Look! (Russian) Squirrel!
The source of the emails is irrelevant,the DNC wrote them, and it is the content that is what is damning.
The lefties are desperate. They’ll say anything to distract from their corruption.
So...between that and Hillary’s bath server, they’ve admitted they’re subject to blackmail...
It could be as simple as Putin trying to pump-up WikiLeaks credibility for some future operation.
There is less evidence implicating Russian hacking intent than there was implicating Hillary intent with her private email server.
Yes, Comey’s statement is disproved. Let’s see who connects the dots.
“...less evidence implicating Russian hacking intent...”
By “less”, I suppose that you mean “zero”...
Really, the whole world knows how careless Hillary is with sensitive communications. I don’t know if Putin is helping Trump. Trump could be a problem for Putin. My guess is that Putin, like a lot of people, just doesn’t like Hillary or anybody connected with obama. Maybe Putin thinks Trump will be more straight up, and not such a snake in the grass.
He knows Hillary would start WWIII.
The evil empire doing the job that the U.S. FBI, CIA, NSA, DOJ and SPCA are unable to do.
Does anyone have Putin's email address? After finding ISIS and wiping them out, and now "finding" Cankle's emails, somebody's got to be polite enough to thank the Russian!!
Just send him a “thank you” to Hillary!’s server, he’s sure to find it.
Yeah - that’s just what I was thinking. The guys who are so adept at accusing others of being red baiters are now doing the red baiting themselves - and without a shred of evidence. At least McCarthy had some evidence - “I now.have in my hand...”
Have you no decency, NYTimes? Have you no decency?
LOL. No hackers other than the ones the FBI had do this DNC hack?
My guess is the FBI head doesn't like having his investigation throttled to end in nothing and this is just the start of the stuff that will come out on the democrats and Hillary.
JMHo
Welllll....the Russians didn’t write the memos, did they
