House Speaker Paul Ryan’s (R-Wis.) office issued a tough statement on Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday that warmed him to stay out of the U.S. election.
“Russia is a global menace led by a devious thug. Putin should stay out of this election," Ryan's spokesman Brendan Buck said in the statement.
The strong language was notable given comments from GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump earlier in which he said he hoped Russia had presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s emails from her use of a private email server.
“If they hacked, they probably have her 33,000 emails. I hope they do,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday at a press conference at his Miami-area hotel. “They probably have her 33,000 emails that she lost and deleted. You'd see some beauties, so we'll see.”
Russia is believed to be behind the hacking of the Democratic National Committee.
On Friday, days before the Democratic convention, emails released by Wikileaks showed DNC aides appearing to help Hillary Clinton and hurt rival Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary.

Trump threw a longline into the water and the fish is already biting.
Paul Rino would rather have a Hildebeast coronation than a Trump.
And RYAN knows this how??? Does he have a ‘pipeline’ to Russia now???
Who’s side is he on?
I love it when Trump dominates the news cycle during the DNC convention. :)
I think there are too many social justice liberals in Wisconsin to expel this traitor.
Ryan when are you going to come out against the homophobic, racist, sexist, elitist DNC. Take them to the wall. Oh you can't because they are your friends. You are in a primary that you will be called to attack the DNC. Either do that or move out of town. Attack or deny, your career is over.
I pray that Nehlen wins the election. This Ryan guy is no good.
Ditto!
Are there any recent polls showing how Nehlen is doing?
Ryan needs to go away NOW. STFU Ryan.
When is his primary anyway??
You can say THAT again !
ping
Or what, pussy?
Not that I am aware of. Kind of strange that there isn’t.
What a douche. So easily led by the media and the DNC talking points while forgetting to check what was in those documents that where dumped.
With leaders like Ryan no wonder the Rats are running circles around the Republicans. I'm glad Ryan is exposing himself in public so Trump knows what to do with him if by chance he remains in place in after the primary and the general election.
Amen
Exactly. What a RINO, mouthpiece for the DNC. Content, Ryan. Focus on the content of the emails, dammit!
Indeed — or he is one dumb you know what.
I really hope he loses his primary.
Ryan’s priorities are out of whack. The Russians are doing the USA a favor by demonstrating how careless the Democrats were about their e-mails. Instead, Ryan should be pounding the table about how the Obama regime tried to hijack Israel’s election.
Hey Paula, what, if any proof do you have that Russia’s meddling in our election?
Put up or shut up you fool.
What a total fool.
And these articles now say Russia is behind this? Not
Can you spell “Benghazi’d”
