Meanwhile Assange who actually leaked all the files, claims Russia was not involved at all, was not his source for any of it.

Right now, I’m going with Assange.

It was an angry employee who hacked the Hillary campaign and they(Hillary) know it.

More fake news brought to you by the mainstream mediots.

They are so transparent. Remember when they defended the communists and ignored Ted Kennedy colluding with them?

My, how times change.

Would serve her right.

I kind of wish that employee could come out and reveal the subterfuge here.

This is the most likely scenario. Likely a Bernie supporter.

It’s just not fathomable that 100% of those in the DNC are 100% faithful to the Clintons.

Fear of Arkancide is always on the table with Ma Rodham Barker, but they’ve been playing those odds for 4 decades now.

And Seth Rich just may have tried to beat those odds.

I wonder if it is the DNC staffer who was murdered in DC this summer, Seth Rich.

“I remember reading something on FR about a Romanian ISP.”

I think you confused Romanians with Romulans.
