Guccifer 2.0, the lone hacker who took credit for providing WikiLeaks with stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee, was in fact an officer of Russias military intelligence directorate (GRU), The Daily Beast has learned. Its an attribution that resulted from a fleeting but critical slip-up in GRU tradecraft. 
That forensic determination has substantial implications for the criminal probe into potential collusion between President Donald Trump and Russia. The Daily Beast has learned that the special counsel in that investigation, Robert Mueller, has taken over the probe into Guccifer and brought the FBI agents who worked to track the persona onto his team.

    Do we need an honest IG report or what? Man, do we ever. We have a lot hanging on this thing. It could either be the greatest thing to happen, or the end of our country as we know it.
 As a Never-Sessions, Ive been keeping my mouth shut lately hoping against hope that Extremely Extreme Extremist and bigbob (among others) are right and Im horribly wrong. The release of this report will tell us everything we need to know about who Sessions really is.
 Its got me pretty nervous...

    This is propaganda.
Guccifer may have been who did the phishing for Podesta’s e-mails, but the DNC Wikileak was a leak and his name was Seth Rich.
The FBI never got to examine the DNC servers.

    He only said it during the period where everyone was insisting it was them (Russian’s were hacking for Trump). He first said many times he never discloses but after a while, as it was all so over the top, did mention who it wasn’t.
To my knowledge the evidence points to somebody that had direct access and copied it all (USB) - most likely Seth Rich.

 I bet there was quiet a bit of that right next to the illegal, unsecured DNC server as it was in a bathroom closet... probably had a super secret password, too... Like "PASSWORD". Or it could have been Seth Rich, or the Awan bros.

    The files were put on a flash drive. Guccifer wasn’t the one. More fake news.

OMG ROLFMAO LOL! What is GRU IP address?
 
To: Magnatron
    George Webb called this Guccifer 2.0 gambit months ago, and it’s beginning to play out as he said. G2 is a CIA and HRC cutout slated to testify he did the hacking when in reality it was Seth Rich. Total deep state bullsh!t.
