How Putin Weaponized Wikileaks to Influence the Election of an American President

[Muhammed]

She got thrown out of the party for running primaries that were totally unfair to Bernie voters, totally undemocratic, fixed, a sham, etc.

Except that wasn't done.

Anyways who says it was done would be lying.

If you disagree, tell us what unfair tactics were used. Be specific.

And of course I expect you to cut and run now. All Hillary-haters cut and run when asked for evidence for their loopy conspiracy theories.

The loopy conspiracy theory is that Putin had some agents hack the DNC Emails to help Trump get elected.

Evidence suggests that a Russian intelligence group was the source of the most recent Wikileaks intel dump, which was aimed to influence the U.S. election.

Close your eyes and imagine that a hacking group backed by Russian President Vladimir Putin broke into the email system of a major U.S. political party. The group stole thousands of sensitive messages and then published them through an obliging third party in a way that was strategically timed to influence the United States presidential election. Now open your eyes, because that’s what just happened.

On Friday, Wikileaks published 20,000 emails stolen from the Democratic National Committee. They reveal, among other things,thuggish infighting, a push by a top DNC official to use Bernie Sanders’ religious convictions against him in the South, and attempts to strong-arm media outlets. In other words, they reveal the Washington campaign monster for what it is.

But leave aside the purported content of the Wikileaks data dump (to which numerous other outlets have devoted considerable attention) and consider the source. Considerable evidence shows that the Wikileaks dump was an orchestrated act by the Russian government, working through proxies, to undermine Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign.

“This has all the hallmarks of tradecraft. The only rationale to release such data from the Russian bulletproof host was to empower one candidate against another. The Cold War is alive and well,” Tom Kellermann, the CEO of Strategic Cyber Ventures told Defense One.

Here’s the timeline: On June 14, cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, under contract with the DNC, announced in a blog post that two separate Russian intelligence groups had gained access to the DNC network. One group, FANCY BEAR or APT 28, gained access in April. The other, COZY BEAR, (also called Cozy Duke andAPT 29) first breached the network in the summer of 2015.

Cybersecurity company FireEye first discovered APT 29 in 2014 and was quick to point out a clear Kremlin connection. “We suspect the Russian government sponsors the group because of the organizations it targets and the data it steals. Additionally, APT 29 appeared to cease operations on Russian holidays, and their work hours seem to align with the UTC +3 time zone, which contains cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg,” they wrote in their report on the group. Other U.S. officials have said that the group looks like it has sponsorship from the Russian government due in large part to the level of sophistication behind the group’s attacks.

It’s the same group that hit the State Department, the White House, and the civilian email of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.The group’s modus operandi (a spearphishing attack that uploads adistinctive remote access tool on the target’s computer) is well known to cyber-security researchers.

In his blog post on the DNC breaches CrowdStrike’s CTO Dmitri Alperovitchwrote “We’ve had lots of experience with both of these actors attempting to target our customers in the past and know them well. In fact, our team considers them some of the best adversaries out of all the numerous nation-state, criminal and hacktivist/terrorist groups we encounter on a daily basis. Their tradecraft is superb, operational security second to none and the extensive usage of ‘living-off-the-land’ techniques enables them to easily bypass many security solutions they encounter.”

The next day, an individual calling himself Guccifer 2.0 claimed to be the culprit behind the breach and released key documents to back up the claim, writing: “Shame on CrowdStrike.”

One would hope that most Americans would be smart enough not to take Putin's bait. We'll see...

Being the little hypocritical bitch that you are, you had no problem with maobama using US taxpayer money to interfere with Israels elections. I guess he and Putin have more in common than many thought.

 

[Muhammed]

To all you Constitution-touting, flag-waving patriots out there - why are you so deliriously happy that Putin is trying to influence the outcome of our presidential election? Do you hate Hillary more than Putin? If you do - why do you...?

First of all, you have no evidence whatsoever that Putin is trying to influence the election. Zero, zip, nada.

Furthermore the DNC is more anti-American than Putin and the DNC is a much larger threat to this country than Russia will ever be.

 

[Muhammed]

Does not matter who owns the video camera that records you putting a knife in someone's back... As long as it is evidence to be used in the guilty party's prosecution...

Vladimir Putin: I think I mentioned our ”guilt“ in the floods in Europe. I think this is another such joke. Actually, I think it is indecent to mention Russia when speaking of any issue, even those we have nothing to do with, to make our country out to be some kind of scarecrow. This not what intelligent people would do, I think.

Meeting with heads of international news agencies

Strange is it not. Liberals point the blame to Russian's for knowing about liberal crimes. They have no proof the Russian's did it and no defense for what they did. But someone else MUST be guilty. It's the liberal way.

The question is what is the rational for leaking these emails at this time if it's not to help Trump?

Logically, if the leak was meant to help Trump, they wouldn't do it in July. With all the left-wing spin in the media people will forget about this before November.

If they wanted to help Trump they would hold on to them and release them as an October surprise so the DNC doesn't have enough time to spin their way out of it.

RW' had no evidence Obama was born in Kenya did that stop them ? Pick one of their BS conspiracy theories that came ture.

here's the deal ... smear the living shit out of Obama and Clinton but keep your god damn mouth shut about Trump ...

You have to wonder why Putin wants Trump in the White House.

No evidence other than Obamas own lies he used to sell books, posing as a foreign student.

If it were a fact that Putin wanted Trump in the White House, maybe.

It could be as simple as Putin finding Hillary's shrill voice and flagrant hypocrisy too much even for him to bear.

So hillary had the backing of the dnc, they planned to fuck bern over from the jump.
underhanded, backstabbing, dirty, wrong, evil

but it's putins fault for catching them at it.


four legs good
two legs better


you were predicted

Funny. So you think Putin's motives were altruistic and honorable? Why didn't Putin and Snowden also hack the shit out of the RNC computers and make that public?

Who cares what his motives are? How does that affect the reality of the emails?

1. He is a foreign communist leader. 2. It was none of his business. 3. He only did it against the DNC and not the RNC.

So tell me you whiny bitch; How does it justify what was done to bern?

The dnc rigged the system, democracy denied, justice failed.

The dnc fucked bern over, it's not Putins fault.

no matter how much spin, it's hillarys fault.

 

[Yousaidwhat]

Just how long did you guys think you were going to be able to get away with being complete douchebags?

Ah, I see I've touched a nerve. Maybe you've still got a conscience left.

Or maybe not. Remember, this is entirely about your and your precious feelings. Nothing else matters, especially real people.

Those who would suffer and die under Trump? Not your problem, obviously. If millions have to die so you can keep your feeling of smarmy moral purity, that's a price you're willing to have someone else pay.

Who are these people who are going to suffer and die? Millions?

 

[amrchaos]

Don't shoot the messenger, lakhota!!

Shoot who the message is about!!

That's crooked Hillary and the DNC criminal conglomerate!!
Any more information and transparency and Big Willie himself will claim he does not know those people!!

Get a grip, dude. Only corrupt brainwashed partisans seek too crucify whistleblowers and hackers!!! That is why the radicals are shooting and blowing everything up!!!The cry for more injustice is coming from people like you

Five will get you ten that Putin has all of Hillary's Top Secret State Department e-mails as well. He will have to decide whether to release them now or wait and blackmail Hillary if she wins the election.

Sounds like Putin and Snowden hacked everything but Hillary's private server. Interesting...

I gave you a 'funny' because they don't have a 'fucking hilarious', or 'you're dreaming again.'

Nothing was done to Sanders, dumbass. God, you people are stupid.

The dnc rigged the system, democracy denied, justice failed.

That's an outright lie on your part, so why should we listen to your further?

But go on. If you're not lying, you can show exactly what was done to Sanders, with the hard data to back it up.

I don't have high-hopes for that, of course. Hillary-haters always run when they get called on their lies.

 

[mamooth]

The loopy conspiracy theory is that Putin had some agents hack the DNC Emails to help Trump get elected.

So why do you think Russian agents were in the DNC? Can you name them?

Mo, you just keep getting loopier.

 

[mamooth]

No question at all. Hillary's private server was less secure than the computer or phone you're banging on right now. A number of tech experts have confirmed this.

The odds that her server wasn't hacked are 0%.

No, that's a delusional fairy tale that you just yanked out of your biutt.

What, you mean you actually believe it?

Oh my god. We've got a live one here! He actually believes the stories that his masters fed him about Clinton!
