More Than One Hundred Democrat Party Officials And Groups Were Hacked By Russians!
There are even more details coming out about the Russian hackery of Democrat party officials, and it’s yuger than we thought was it was.
From the New York Times:
A Russian cyberattack that targeted Democratic politicians was bigger than it first appeared and breached the private email accounts of more than 100 party officials and groups, officials with knowledge of the case said Wednesday.
The widening scope of the attack has prompted the F.B.I. to broaden its investigation, and agents have begun notifying a long list of Democratic officials that the Russians may have breached their personal accounts.
The main targets appear to have been the personal email accounts of Hillary Clinton’s campaign officials and party operatives, along with a number of party organizations.
Officials have acknowledged that the Russian hackers gained access to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which is the fund-raising arm for House Democrats, and to the Democratic National Committee, including a D.N.C. voter analytics program used by Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign.
But the hack now appears to have extended well beyond those groups, and organizations like the Democratic Governors’ Association may also have been affected, according to Democrats involved in the investigation.
That is pretty breathtaking. And it means that we’re only touching the tip of the iceberg with email leaks. What more can we expect and when? Julian Assange won’t say who his source is, but at this point it’s pretty stupid to think it’s other than the Russians.
More from the NYT:
WikiLeaks, the group that put out the D.N.C. emails publicly last month, interjected itself into the hacking case again this week when it offered a $20,000 reward for information on the shooting death last month of a former D.N.C. staff member, Seth Rich, outside his Washington home. His killing fueled speculation on the internet that he was somehow tied to the hacked emails, but the police have not given any credence to that speculation.
The WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, has made it clear that he would like to hurt Mrs. Clinton’s bid for the White House, opposing her candidacy on policy and personal grounds. He has hinted that he has more material about the presidential campaign that he could release.
But even with the prior leak, Hillary is spanking Trump like a red-headed stepchild. Will Trump’s pal Putin help him turn the tables on the cankled Commie?! Stay tuned… to our website.
