The DNC themselves bungled it too, having some lowly computer janitor deal with it, badly.

The FBI agent trying to warn them of the hack wasn't resolute enough either in trying to get the right people in the dnc informed imo.

Russia didn't "hack the election" but they certainly hacked the DNC and that is egregious. This is not some false flag or convenient scapegoat thing.

Russia didn't hack poo poo, John Podesta fell for a phishing email (not a spear-phishing email)

If Russia hacked the DNC then sure that's big news, but why is it big news now after the election and not when the emails were originally leaked? The answer is that when the emails leaked everyone assumed Clinton would've won the election, but now that Trump won the DNC has proven to be completely incompetent and instead of admitting to blundering what should've been the easiest election in US history by attempting to turn Texas blue they're trying to generate consent for Cold War 2

please tell me about the "Russian hackers" that attacked the power plant in Vermont (i.e. an employee installed Ask Toolbar on his laptop)

wikileaks is literally a russian intelligence front and it's not a coincidence that all of the leaked emails (so weird that no republican data got hacked or leaked!) went there

yeah the DNC hosed up but dont act like they are 100% to blame because someone our grandma's age doesnt understand what phishing is

if phishing isn't hacking then what is?

and dont forget that he was suspicious of it at first, sent it over to someone to verify and they accidentally typed "this is legitimate" when they meant to type "this is not legitimate"

because investigations take time, plus the literal president of the united states is refusing to even acknowledge the possibility that the intelligence agencies are on to something?

there's a summary literally on the previous page showing how john podesta was specifically targeted using a crafted url, along with other important democratic figures. but good job making stuff up.

it's kinda disingenuous to compare a targeted attack against an individual to nigerian_prince419_at_hotmail.cn

one's actually got a good chance of succeeding even if the guy's okay at opsec and the other one's gonna drop the shitware you'll be scraping off gramma's gateway cowputer over easter weekend
