And where is JA and WL in all of this? I thought JA had proof that Russia did not provide the data, but hinted at SR,,,?
WL is the “Organization #1” I believe it was - supposedly the beneficiary of the Russians getting DNC things. Time for JA + WL to come clean. Considering it’s now believed that WL has been compromised and JA is ... somewhere ... it’s an interesting backdrop poised for shock & awe.
Then there is DCLeaks.com - that was always a suspect Russian site during the election; people on other threads on FR didn’t even remember it earlier today. Reason - it was WEAK! That’s where DCCC things went.
Then there are Podesta e-mails, clearly a ‘phishing’ exploit as has been known. Not surprising, again, that those could have been targeted by Russia.
But the DNC server & Hillary e-mail servers are different here. They’re careful to specify that the HRC e-mail server in this picture was the HRC CAMPAIGN server; again, possible target, sure, but nothing ever came from that, did it?
In Roger Stone article of today above, it’s again interesting to recall they were pitching low grade campaign stuff from DCCC (I believe) that didn’t impress Stone (nor anybody else in 2016 either)
Back to the DNC server - it’s the mismatched piece in this puzzle. And it seems that the Mule simply relied on Crowdstrike, again, as had everybody else before - it’s the same old cover story as there’s always been.
I’m still at a loss to reconcile these things.
Recall the “Guccifer 2.0” things with regards to DNC sourced docs was proven to be a fraud and a bad one at that - purporting to be Russian sourced when it rather appeared that Crowdstrike had manufactured to cover things up. Today’s indictment would be the next to final step in that and like the other “Russian” case might not be ready for primetime.
But, again, is Mueller that corrupt or that stupid? I still can’t answer that. My (our/many’s) questions remain - are RR + the Mule leading a sting or the first targets of it?
If white hats have everything (as they surely would) - then this would be one bridge too far ... after one bridge too far, etc. And, again, in setting up the rationale for using MIL to take down DS embedded in CI + F-I / D-J ... well this would be another in the ultimate possible reveal + revelation scenarios possible here!
