I find it interesting that we have two reasonably sounding explanations for how the Podesta emails were hacked:

1. By an "Insider".

2. By a pretty standard "Phishing" ploy.

Add to this the Wikileaks/Assange assertion that it was "Not the Russians" and we have a pretty good case for our claim of "Fake News". To prove otherwise to me would take some solid proof of a a Russian-Wikileaks connection. I don't expect to find that. Ever.

But the Insider vs Phishing issue remains. I wonder if we will ever know for sure.

Until the end of time, the mantra will be that the Russians “hacked” the 2016 election and stole it from Hilliary!

Which makes it kind of fun to just say "You're wrong about that" and watch their heads explode.

No way I will EVER be convinced that the Russians would prefer President Trump over “Reset” Clintoon.

I like Sharyl. She left CBS because she was a truth teller.

If you read the article she covers these points. I watched a dem on FNC this AM discussing this issue, and she was ridiculous, just kept saying everybody else was unAmerican for even questioning the government.

I think the only reason would be that Clinton is with the warmongers, for financial gain to herself of course.

What is the difference between the MSM releasing the Trump “pussy” recording and Wikileaks releasing the Podesta emails? Didn’t they both influence the outcome of the election?

A marxist like Obama would not inherently be against making false claims that Trump committed treason by cooperating with Russian hacks of the US election, a cooperation which puts him in the debt of a foreign enemy of the US, and therefore arresting him and declaring him ineligible to be US President. It's the kind of thing he would love to do. He does not want to see his legacy erased from US history.

I think he realizes he doesn't have the juice to pull it off, but he has probably mulled it over. In any event, he can use this to fight back against Trump efforts to reverse Obama's damage to the country.

I think it’s pretty well-known that the Podesta leaks were phishing. We have the emails and links he clicked. The DNC emails are of unknown origin. They could have been an insider (as Assange has asserted) or a hacker. I believe Assange.
