American intelligence agencies have told the White House they now have high confidence that the Russian government was behind the theft of emails and documents from the Democratic National Committee, according to federal officials who have been briefed on the evidence.
But intelligence officials have cautioned that they are uncertain whether the electronic break-in at the committees computer systems was intended as fairly routine cyberespionage of the kind the United States also conducts around the world or as part of an effort to manipulate the 2016 presidential election.
The emails were released by WikiLeaks, whose founder, Julian Assange, has made it clear that he hoped to harm Hillary Clintons chances of winning the presidency. It is unclear how the documents made their way to the group. But a large sampling was published before the WikiLeaks release by several news organizations and someone who called himself Guccifer 2.0, who investigators now believe was an agent of the G.R.U., Russias military intelligence service.

It’s curious how no agency was able to comment about anything regarding HILLARY’S! missing emails, but when only one party has been hacked - all agencies are suddenly and quickly on the same page.
the narrative “The Russians hacked the server” is a pretty weak one. Most Americans are pretty neutral one way or another about their feelings about the Russians, and could really care less if they hacked into the server belonging to a bunch of snakes.
I think most likely it was an angry Bernie supporter and they don’t want to admit it and need to shift the blame.
It’s not like the Dems can admit they can not control their own monsters.
If they compromised James Comey, they’ve compromised all of the CIA and NSA management as well.
Maybe if the murdered democrat staffer conspiracy theory is correct Russia should just let it out there.... it would quickly put an end to this bs of the dems blaming the Russians and put them in deeper water.
And implying Russia hacked the DNC server, you must also assume they hacked Hillary's private server. Does that make her the target of blackmail? Are the Russians thru Assange sending her a message--a shot across the bow--that they have the 33,000 emails. Her fate is in their hands. Two can play the Russia game.
More diversion from the contents of the emails to the source. If Putin had the emails, he would keep them for blackmail, and work to get Hillary “Reset Button” Clinton elected.
I am glad Mossaud did it.
Now let's talk about what was in the emails, bigotry, sexism, anti Jewish comment,anti gay etc. Let's tlk
Agreed. A weak, compromised, corrupt Hillary in the White House is the best outcome for Putin. Taking her out makes no practical sense that I can follow.
The people on the planet with the most to lose if she wins are the Israelis. Just sayin’
Doing whatever it takes to avoid discussing the content of the emails.
I think most likely it was an angry Bernie supporter and they dont want to admit it and need to shift the blame.
DING DING DING WINNER WINNER WINNER
Can’t hack evidence of crimes that weren’t committed....
[[If they compromised James Comey, theyve compromised all of the CIA and NSA management as well.]]
Bush never cleaned out Clinton’s goons.
They , the State Dept ,many of the courts ,have been compromised for a long time.
Plus they have had almost 8 years to purge those that don’t go along with them.
Ha! The same Russians who ~didn’t~ hack Hillary’s server?
That's Mossad, We have nothing to do with Mo's Saud.
Yup. Trump need to say “You’re Fired!” about 50,000 times during his first hundred days.
Call No Saud.
sorry “Call Mo Saud”
