Russians 'likely responsible' for Clinton campaign hack
Fox News.com ^ | July 30, 2016

Hillary Clinton’s campaign computers have been hacked, said sources who added Friday that the Russian government is likely responsible for yet another attack on Democrats.

The newly revealed attack comes after computer networks for the Democratic National Committee and the party’s fund-raising committee for congressional candidates were also hacked.

A trove of stolen e-mails from the party — released last week — resulted in the downfall of DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who resigned as a result of explosive revelations.

The Justice Department’s national-security division is investigating the cyber attacks. The FBI warned the Clinton campaign in March that it had been targeted by hackers, Yahoo News said.

Headline should read:

“Clinton Campaign Refuses FBI Help to Prevent Hacking Attacks”

I don’t believe FOX, I don’t believe “Sources”, and I don’t believe the Justice Department nor anyone connected with it, including the FBI about sh!t.

None of them could find their butts with both hands and a flashlight. The only thing they can do is cover up, obfuscate and lie - they lie REAL good.

Well, if it’s Russia, they need to release all they have, because the Clintons are vindictive aholes.

Who are the “sources”? Perhaps the DNC who is trying to pin this on the Ruskies operating for Trump? Preposterous I say. This reads like a PR piece put out by the clinton campaign or the DNC themselves.

I guess if Trump wants to turn this around on Clintoon, he should say if they were warned by the FBI why did they reject any help by the FBI at the alleged time of the attack, were they afraid of something being found by the FBI about the campaign that was illegal like forward dating political contributions or interfering in another campaign??

I still want to know why the FBI says Russian hacking is far too sophisticated to detect when the issue is Hillary’s reckless disregard for security, but obvious when it is convenient for the Democrats to play the victim card. It is almost as if the FBI is being less than truthful.

Still saying it was someone within the Clinton “Organization” and they know who it is/was.....so they can blame the Russians because it won’t be proven otherwise.

Perhaps they refused FBI help because they knew the investigation would lead to Seth Rich who was murdered a few weeks ago? DNC is the one pushing Russia as the hacker...

Democrat supporting supposition. Anti Trump supposition. Where is the reporting? Where is the evidence? Fox supporting Hillary. That's the only conclusion grounded in fact.

Entrusting national security information with Hillary Clinton was a very bad mistake. She was sloppy, haughty and dismissive of rational security measures and personnel. Foreign governments and the United States will bribe, hack, spy and steal whatever information they can from each other. Hillary with her not so secure private server, her haughty dismissive attitude and sloppy behavior was vulnerable and succumbed to all these techniques and enticements. Her tenure as Secretary of State was a disaster. Many people who cooperated with US operatives no doubt were arrested, tortured, imprisoned or killed due to Hillary’s sloppy careless, criminal actions. If she is elected President ,it will be a catastrophe.

The Russians are no more “likely” than a half-a-dozen other possible sources.

Who does it help to blame it on the Russians? Hillary.

This passes the smell test... just like a truck full of burning tires, running over a phalanx of skunks before crashing into dumpster full of 3-week-old scraps from a Korean butcher shop, behind a paper mill.

I think you might be right. We discussed him yesterday. He seems to have had the capability and access.

Exactly. The same Democrats who were adamant that there's no way the Russians could have hacked Hillary's private, non-secure email server to obtain our national security secrets are the same Democrats who are convinced the Russians hacked the DNC's email server to obtain campaign secrets.
