Because the Mueller investigation is about to tank and they have to keep this idiotic narrative alive somehow.
I hope this makes the Democrat party the laughing stock of the country.

by hacking Democratic Party computers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notice they have never disputed the veracity of the contents of those leaks.
It was the content that damaged them.

That’s why they plugged the leak.

Sane judge: You’re guilty of “contempt of court” and you’re going to prison, and be relieved of mucho dinero.

“During the 2016 presidential campaign, Russia launched an all-out assault on our democracy, and it found a willing and active partner in Donald Trump’s campaign,” DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement. “This constituted an act of unprecedented treachery: the campaign of a nominee for President of the United States in league with a hostile foreign power to bolster its own chance to win the presidency,” he said. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Wow!!!

I am not an attorney, and I do not play one on TV, but isn’t there a process called “discovery” where both sides look at the other side’s evidence?

Sounds like they’ve lost confidence in Mueller

Nailed it. More to the point, when they saw Rudy coming, they knew the Mueller phase of their scheme is about over. "Hey let's find another porn star to parade on the chat shows. No, let's just go for the long bomb." Geniuses.

Russia's answer rightly should be "Поцелуй наши коллективные ягодицы и заполнить свой собственный этот ложный иск."
