The proof goes all the way back to June, before public even knew about it. It has only been further substantiated since then.

https://www.crowdstrike.com/blog/bears-midst-intrusion-democratic-national-committee/

I think the interesting part is how they are claiming that the RNC was hacked also, something that Information Security experts and others have been speculating about all along, but there was no Wikileaks dump on them. Which begs the question, why not?

Probably because: A) The RNC didn't get hacked (Or hacked as bad as the DNC was), or B) The hackers in question (Russia) don't feel like sharing, considering the majority in Congress and the guy Russia installed into Presidency (Trump) are Republicans, that would be rather useful information to hold onto.

Besides, it's not like Russia hasn't put people of its choosing in power in a lot of other countries over the course of recent history. Just look at Eastern Europe a few decades back. That worked out well, didn't it?

Back during the election I got a check in the mail from Putin himself every month that I posted pro-trump comments online.

So I for one welcome our new Russian overlords

The swamp has already been drained.

Now we're going to lease it to Gazprom at a few cents per acre so they can drill it for oil to sell back to us at $200 a barrel.

Donald Trump has said everything. Trump's words are meaningless. Also, if you're so American, why are you spelling 'favor' wrong?


This shit is how actual dictators get into power, time after time. First rule of dealing with any kind of politician: assume that they mean the absolute worst things that they say, and worse. Because they almost certainly do.

No, actually: Apple's stuff has mostly moved to places like Malaysia due to rising costs of labour in China.

Malaysia can be included in their sphere of influence. There is no need now, but once a trade war gets underway, just watch the two super powers exerting their influence.

And I would be real interested in seeing what their proof is, seeing as how most of the major leaks were accomplished through basic phishing scams.

In any case, it's intriguing how offended everyone becomes at the thought that a foreign nation exposed major corruption within our political system and not at the thought that it might have actually fucking taken a foreign government's snooping around to actually see this stuff brought to day, that it was not an insider with a conscience or a concerned citizen.

Probably something to do with how a hostile foreign nation chosing your president is rather more serious than the "corruption" at the DNC.
