'Why didn't they do something?' Furious Trump lashes out against the 'Deep State' and blames Obama..

'Why didn't they do something?' Furious Trump lashes out against the 'Deep State' and blames Obama for failing to act in 2016 following the indictment of 12 Russian agents for hacking operation that targeted Hillary and the DNC

President Trump tweeted from Scotland about Friday's stunning indictments

Justice Department charged 12 Russians with conspiring to influence election

Accused of hacking Democratic Party and Clinton emails then releasing them

Accessed emails by creating fake profiles and paid for the efforts with bitcoin

One hack happened same day Trump asked Russians to 'look at Clinton's emails'

President Trump responded to the stunning indictment of 12 Russians for hacking the 2016 election by blasting the 'Deep State' and blaming President Obama for efforts the authorities say were meant to muddy his own rival Hillary Clinton.

It was the first word from Trump on the subject since Deputy AG Rosenstein, part of the Mueller team, announced the indictments just as Trump was meeting with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle.

'The stories you heard about the 12 Russians yesterday took place during the Obama Administration, not the Trump Administration,' Trump tweeted from his golf course in Turnberry, Scotland.

'Why didn't they do something about it, especially when it was reported that President Obama was informed by the FBI in September, before the Election?'

In another tweet, Trump asked: 'Where is the DNC Server, and why didn't the FBI take possession of it? Deep State?’

The ‘Deep State’ is a conspiracy theory that suggests high-level officials run a shadow government working against Trump.

Fired former FBI Director James Comey testified in January that the agency never gained access to the physical servers but were given the necessary data by the security firm CrowdStrike, which he said was an ‘appropriate substitute’.

John Podesta personally gave Russian Intelligence access to the DNC emails!

Look at Item 21a of the indictment: https://www.justice.gov/file/1080281/download

For example, on or about March 19, 2016 LUKASHEV and his co-conspirators created and sent a spearphishing email to the chariman of the Clinton Campaign. LUKASHEV used the account “john356gh” at an online service that abbreviated lengthy website addresses (referred t0 as a “URL shortening service). LUKASHEV used the account to mask a link contained in the spearphishing email, which directed the recipient to a GRU-created website. LUKASHEV altered the appearance of the sender email address in order to make it look like the email was a security notification from Google ( a technique known as spoofing), instructing the user to change his password by clicking the embedded link. Those instructions were followed. On or about March 21, 2016, LUKASHEV, YERMAKOV, and their co-conspirators stole the contents of the chairman’s email account, which consisted of over 50,000 emails.

It seems like I read somewhere in the news that our government was proficient in making hacks appear like they came from places like Russia when they were done by the USA. Does anyone else remember this?

Yep...

"The CIA can fake the fingerprint origin of a hack to make it look like it came from a foreign agent hacker or country."

Remember when Obama gave stand down orders against Russian cyber attacks in summer 2016?

And there were *that sure* she was going to win.

That's because they believed their own lying polls, which were designed to sway the weaklings in the center.

All legitimate questions posed by President Trump. Regarding the DNC server, they'll never surrender it for investigation of hacking because it was never hacked and once proven, that would blow the whole Trump/Russia collusion scam out of the water..

The only way those files could have been downloaded in the brief time they were was by a Democrat insider with a computer connected to the server. And that likely person was Seth Rich who was a Bernie Sanders supporter.......But he's dead now and everyone knows "dead men tell no tales".....

Wikileaks has already said it wasn’t the Russians. Crickets.

I think they were so sure Hillary would win that if they even mentioned the possibility of Russian hacking it would put a question on her legitimacy. Their over confidence was their undoing and our fortune.

Look at the result. The deep state was exposed. A bunch of dirty actors unmasked. The media has lost all credibility. Subversive groups like Fusion GPS have been exposed. The incestuous relationship between the deep state and the media is exposed. None of this would have happened had it not been for the deep state itself trying to overthrow an election.

A FACT that is conveniently left out of the lying liberal lamestream propaganda machine that is our "media" is that there were NUMEROUS hacking attempts against the RNC as well.

The difference between the RNC and DNC hacking attempts however is that the hacking against the RNC FAILED because they'd properly secured their servers while the DNC hacks were successful because they did not.

The RNC also cooperated with the FBI, where as the DNC did not.

Tell me again this was the Russian's trying to sway the election towards President Trump?

Conspiracy theory about to be revealed as real. It's almost SHTF time!

Mueller indicted 12 Russians for hacking yesterday (said to be interfering in the 2016 election, to help Hillary win)....

But the events under indictment took place during the Obama Administration.

Why did the Obamatons keep it secret?

Even after it was reported that then-Pres Obama was informed by the FBI in Sept, before the 2016 Election?

What does Obummer know that we dont know?

INCONVENIENT FACTOID: The computers the Russians supposedly hacked are missing.

How can Mueller indict individuals when he has not even seen the Computers on which he based his indictment?

And BTW....where are the govt-issue WH computers Obama stole when he exited? That'll tell us plenty.

The name of the Mueller game is "Get Trump."

(HAT TIP Captain Compassion)
Seems Mueller indicted Rooskies without once appearing in court,
without once being questioned by the Mueller team or any grand jury.

As Alberta's Child insightfully opined: Let's also consider the possibility that the Russians indicted are not real people----
that Mueller made them up in an attempt to get out from the pressure he's under to "get Trump" from desperate Demorats.

President Trump mere asked reasonable questions on his twitter account.

The angry emotions were all assumed by the author of the article.

Sounds like projection.
