Members of Congress Question Hack of DNC Server
OAN ^ | May 26, 2017 | Young Richardson

Washington, DC – Young Richardson, OAN Political Correspondent

Wikileaks released tens of thousands of internal Democratic National Committee emails last summer, with Russia thought to be the source, and just weeks after the release, DNC staffer Seth Rich was fatally killed while walking to his Washington, DC home. Now some Members of Congress are raising questions about these events.

“I do not believe that the evidence at this time proves that the Russians would conclude that the Russians are the the ones who hacked the DNC. We have heard every report from the intelligence groups that are making their reports and they have weasel words in them, and they are based on opinion based on someone who is probably a strong liberal democrat,” says Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-California).

Reports of the Russian hack of the DNC seem to be based on mere opinion says California Congressman Dana Rohrabacher. And Rohrabacher believes other possible alleged sources of the computer breach—potentially including murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich–should be investigated.

“Whoever it could be, we need to look into it and verify. The fact that the young man’s death has not been followed by an investigation that would even be in place for an ordinary murder is very suspicious to me,” Rohrabacher ventures.

And Rohrabacher isn’t the only Member of Congress asking questions. Texas Congressman Blake Farenthold also wonders whether or not the intrusion into the DNC computer server may have been an inside job, potentially by any DNC staffer in a similar position like that of Seth Rich.

“I think it should definitely be a part of the investigation. It’s an alternative theory and any good investigation looks at alternative theories,” observes Rep. Blake Farenthold (R-Texas). “We need to investigate all the options. A lot of the allegations about Russia and some of the allegations about President Trump now are all coming from un-named sources. Sources suggesting it was an inside job are probably just as valid as somebody not willing to give their name.”

With Members of Congress asking questions about the DNC hack, it may be possible there will now be some answers.

OANN has the balls to strongly report on this. Anyone else reporting? Cut them some slack grammar police.

Pearson Sharp’s reports are stinging. Hannity is a coward.

No more fnc in this house, straight to OANN.

Now some Members of Congress are raising questions about these events.

....................

Aside from the pathetic grammar it's inaccurate.

To the best of my knowledge Rich was walking home talking to his girlfriend on the phone after the bar closed. Two blocks from his home around 4:00 am or so he was accosted by two criminals and shot twice. One bullet went all the way through the other stayed in his body.

Most likely the hit on Rich was ordered by dem.comm. director Jennifer Palmieri. Podesta found out about it and suggested she make sure it was O.K. by checking with Hillary/Huma.They agreed that "Rich had to go". Evidently, there is a suggested firing order on DNC assassinations. No telling if it's a budget item in the DNC budget.

Rich was rushed to the hospital where minor "maintenance" surgery was performed and he was termed stable. A fourth year surgeon at the hospital sent an e-mail that made the rounds.He did not know at the time the patient was Seth Rich.

He was however aghast at how the patient was treated after the minor surgery. More surgery was scheduled for the next day which was SOP in cases such as Rich.

A few hours after Rich entered the hospital the place filled with law enforcement and no one even vital hospital personnel were allowed anywhere near Rich.

He was pronounced a few hours later.

Rich was killed twice,once on the sidewalk and again at the hospital.

Congress on both sides of the aisle knows all about this just as we do.

It remains to be seen who will take action.

We here certainly will but what about Congress or Pres.Trump?

Great point. (And there are so many examples of this.) Similar to the point that they were far more interested in who (not the Russians, but hey look over there!) leaked the emails than in what was *IN* the emails.

As far as I’m concerned, that itself is evidence. It’s evidence that those who are ignoring a significant problem (suspicious murder) and instead chasing after something trivial have an agenda and/or something to hide. Now what could that be??

"Reports of the Russian hack of the DNC 'Trump-Russia collusion' seem to be based on mere opinion"

George Webb claims that Rich was pulled into a car (maybe an ambulance) and drugged up with Fentanyl and Propofol and interrogated for a couple of hours.

After all, if someone has you really irked, don't you want a chance to question him before you send him away?

His name was Seth Rich and his case will not go away.

Tough guys in Congress: "We demand answers now!"

FBI: "We won't tell you anything."

Tough guys in Congress: "OK, sorry for asking... please forgive us".

I’m still waiting, where is the FEC investigation into unreported in kind contributions by every media outlet that danced to Hillary’s desires including those who fed her at least one question for the debates?

Oh, right, we’re still looking for mystery boogie men to blame it all on rather than prosecuting the vast amounts of collusion, bribery, influence peddling and conspiracy to commit fraud...

Dotcom’s late-Wednesday tweet states, “On Monday I’ll release our letter to Special Counsel Robert Mueller. He needs to look into the origin of DNC leaks to conclude Russia probe.”

sending a letter with all his details!?

This whole thing has been a head fake from the beginning by the DNC.

Now they are trying to do the same thing with this “fake report” that Comey relied on to decide to make his 7/5/16 announcement where he exonerated Clinton.

The “fake report” is an email - before the Comey announcement - between DWS, Soros and others and declares that the DOJ will never prosecute Hillary on the emails. The latest from fake news media is that this report is fake and was forged by the Russians.

As some other poster on this board posted, this email is real and is about to be outed. The DNC is desperately attempting to make it look like a Russian hack.

The democrat party is not to be trusted. They allow islam to be valid in America. That alone tells me they are dishonest and can never be trusted.

A begging dog is more honest than a democrat or islam.

Question I have is if Russia hacked (which I never believed BTW), why hack Podesta & not Hillary or Huma?

Seth Rich was murdered on July 10, 2016 and the DNC dump from Wikileaks occurred about a week later...doesn't negate the theory at all - whoever sent the emails to Wikileaks could have done it at any time - Wikileaks held them for a while and even did some sorting and rearranging before releasing them, doing so over a period of several weeks - Wikileaks didn't release any of the emails as soon as they received them.....
