Kerry discusses DNC email hack with Russia's top diplomat
CBS News ^ | July 26, 2016

Secretary of State John Kerry says he raised the email hack of the Democratic National Committee with Russia's top diplomat but stopped short of making any allegation about who might be responsible.

Kerry told reporters Tuesday he brought the matter up with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at a meeting in Laos and explained that the FBI was investigating. He did not, however, repeat allegations or echo suspicions that Russia was responsible for the hack and said he would not draw conclusions until the probe is complete. "I raised the question and we will continue to work to see precisely what those facts are," Kerry said. He would not say if Lavrov responded.

Asked about the allegations earlier, Lavrov scoffed, saying: "I don't want to use 4-letter words."

That made me laugh out loud.

The whole issue is caused by global warming.

DISTRACTION. The Russians didn't write the emails, that we know for a fact.

The Russians did it. They rigged the Democrat primary. Either that or they are big fans of “transparency” and knew that the Democrats aren’t very “transparent”. LOL!

The Dems and their media flunkies SO much want to make this about Russians hacking US emails rather than the substance of the hacked emails.

The Democrats are outraged over this private email leak but they don’t give a hoot about the massive leak of classified info that Hillary engineered.

Hit back on this talking point by asking about Hillary’s deletion of 30,000 emails.

"Russian state actors were feeding the emails to hackers for the purpose of helping Donald Trump," he continued.

But neither the Clinton campaign, the White House, nor lawmakers briefed on the hack definitively linked the leak to the Russian government on Monday.

Didn't stop Mook from spewing cr@p.

Kerry is so mad he’s not going to bring James Taylor to Moscow to sing to the Russians.
