    DNC Ties New 'Criminal' Leak to Trump, Russia

    “……..Interim DNC Chair Donna Brazile charged in the statement that the only person to gain anything from these hacks would be Trump and his campaign. She also blasted his statements about cybercrime as "dangerous."

    “The DNC is the victim of a crime—an illegal cyberattack by Russian state-sponsored agents who seek to harm the Democratic Party and progressive groups in an effort to influence the presidential election," the statement reads. "There’s one person who stands to benefit from these criminal acts, and that’s Donald Trump. Not only has Trump embraced Putin, he publicly encouraged further Russian espionage to help his campaign. Like so many of the words Trump has uttered this election season, his statements encouraging cybercrime are dangerous, divisive, and unprecedented."

    Hours before the DNC released the statement, Politico reported that someone speaking on behalf of the hacker Guccifer 2.0 at a hacker conference in London announced the release of internal documents about the DNC's tech initiatives during vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine's tenure as governor of Virginia, as well as spreadsheets that appear to contain donor information………..

    “Numerous security researchers suspect Guccifer 2.0 is a front for Russian intelligence services. Digital forensic investigations of the DNC and DCCC hacks have led cybersecurity firms to blame Moscow-backed hackers for both digital intrusions……….”

    Vast right wing conspiracy!

    Of course they'd try to tie this to Trump. Of course.

    Because of opinion pieces from laughable sources like talkingpointsmemo.com?

    Only a halfwit could possibly take such drivel seriously.

    I see you did not bother to read the information provided.......

    talkingpointsmemo is a news compiler...........

    Which means the select items which may appeal to its readers from the MSM...........

    So in essence you are dismissing as phony baloney what is being reported...........and dismissing some reports from well-known conservative web sites.......

    I wonder who the halfwit is now? Have any idea?


    No opinion piece my friend..........

    Are you going to provide evidence to support the assertion of Trump's criminal tie to the leak or not? The references you linked to certainly didn't provide a shred of it.

    Why would Russia do something that doesn't benefit Russia?

    Ut-Oh. I wonder if they have anything on John Kerry’s State Department Funneling MILLIONS To His Daughter’s Nonprofit? Why do these folks feel complete freedom to direct OUR money to their own interests? I'm so tired of these folks.

    Weird, not a SINGLE scandal of this type under Powell or Rice.

    More than $9 million of Department of State money has been funneled through the Peace Corps to a nonprofit foundation started and run by Secretary of State John Kerry’s daughter...

    The Department of State funded a Peace Corps program created by Dr. Vanessa Kerry. The Peace Corps then "awarded" the money without competition to a nonprofit Kerry created for the program.

    I'm sick and tired of all these "non-profits". What a nest of money laundering, bribes and tax dodges seem to arise from them.

    Initially, the Peace Corps awarded Kerry’s group — now called Seed Global Health — with a three-year contract worth $2 million of State Department money on Sept. 10, 2012. Her father was then the chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, which oversees both the Department of State and the Peace Corps.

    Seed secured a four-year extension in September 2015, again without competition. This time, the Peace Corps gave the nonprofit $6.4 million provided by the Department of State while John Kerry was secretary of state.

    Seed also received almost $1 million from a modification to the first award, as well as from Department of State funds the group secured outside the Peace Corps.

    The Peace Corps program — called the Global Health Service Partnership (GHSP) — sends volunteer physicians and nurses to medical and nursing schools in Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda and Liberia, according to Seed’s website. More than 40 clinical educators worked at 13 sites in the 2014-2015 program.

    Kerry and government officials colluded to launch the program and ensure that Seed would get the contract.

    “Vanessa, Buck, and Sarah are meeting with Ambassador Goosby on the morning of 9/16/11 to discuss next steps for the GHSP,” said a memo from September 16, 2011 — one year before Seed received its first award. “Conversations with OGAC leadership confirm that Ambassador Goosby is very supportive of the initial proposal.”

    The memo was referring to Peace Corps Directors Buck Buckingham and Sarah Morgenthau and Ambassador Eric Goosby, who then headed the Office of the US Global AIDS Coordinator (OGAC) — the State Department office that later funded GHSP.

    A meeting one month later unveiled the strategy to send tax dollars to Seed.

    “The public funding to start the GHSP is secured, it will come from OGAC through [Peace Corps] to support core HQ and field based activities, and to develop a sub-agreement to provide support to the foundation for contributions for their work in this partnership,” minutes from a Nov. 18, 2011, meeting said. The “foundation” refers to Seed, which was then called the Foundation for Global Health Service.

    Officials in that meeting also assured Kerry that she would not have to compete with other groups for Department of State funds.

    “Buck obtained clarity of the mechanism by which federal money will be provided to” Seed, the minutes said. “The process can be fast tracked and non-competed through a specific grant mechanism.”

    Meanwhile, the State Department buried its intent to transfer funds to the Peace Corps in its required congressional notification.

    “The GHSP is a smaller line item in a multi-page document with multi-million dollar programs,” minutes from the November 2011 meeting said.

    Seed received its first award less than one year later. Peace Corps later provided another nearly $900,000, noting it underestimated the program’s expenses, especially travel and salary costs.

    It’s unclear when that modification was added, but Kerry drew a salary from Seed for the first time in 2014. She was the only officer listed on the nonprofit’s 990 tax form to receive compensation — some $140,000 for a reported 30 hours per week.

    Discussion about the $6.4 million extension also provides questionable details. Peace Corps officials noted that contracts could not extend beyond five years and considered competing the next award, but decided they would “go forward with sole-source option if mandated by OGAC,” minutes from a July 17, 2014 meeting said.

    Ultimately, the extension was awarded without competition on Sept. 10, 2015. It’s unclear why the Peace Corps violated its five-year policy by giving Seed seven years of non-competitively awarded funding.

    Peace Corps justified the decision to forgo competition by arguing Seed was already burrowed into the program, and that replacing it out would cause problems.

    “As such, if a cooperative agreement were to be awarded to a new partner, applicants that were recruited and vetted by Seed may be unable to be placed in the field,” a Sept. 10 2015 document stated. The document further noted that “Peace Corps has been unable to identify any potential partners which satisfy the needs of the GHSP program” other than Seed, which was created based around the program’s needs.

    So it seems like the government can slow walk FOIA requests. Are Hackers the only people who can get any information out of OUR Federal Government, because we sure as hell can't!

    Oliver Stone: DNC Hack Was ‘Inside Job,’ Not Russia

    During an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, director Oliver Stone accused the Democratic National Committee of hacking itself. Asked by the host what he makes of the reports that Russian hackers breached the DNC's email server and fed information to WikiLeaks in an attempt to influence the U.S. presidential election, Stone called that idea a "great fiction." The director, currently promoting his biopic of Edward Snowden, said the intelligence experts he has spoken with indicated that the DNC hack was "probably an inside job." He went on to specify that he believed the hack was perpetrated by Democrats within the committee. The revelations from the hack led directly to the resignation of DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz and other high-level officials.

    Heck noone can even prove the Russian angle, nevermind Trump.

    All made up in typical Democrat fashion to divert the attention away from what was exposed in the emails...which of course was the very act of trying to influence an election themselves and disenfranchise the Bernie half of their party.

    A very good question. Lets face it, Obama and Hillary have done nothing to stop Russia with anything it wants to do. Who really believes they wouldn't be perfectly content with another round of this easilly steamrolled administration?

    There is no reason for Russia to fear or be objectionable to term 3 of a doormat. Nothing to gain here in this narrative for anyone other than HRC and the entire DNC and party themselves.

    You seem to have a reading comprehension problem.

    The OP was talking about Russian activitity.

    Donna Brazille did not tie the Russian efforts to Trump.

    She referenced statements that Trump has made in public. Every single one of them is accurate and well documented.

    Trump HAS openly celebrated the hacking, called for more of it, and celebrated Vladimir Putin. Those are facts, none of which you can deny.

    Maybe the RNC and Republicans have a healthy respect for data security and hacking half-wit progs who hate America anyway was just easier...

    His claim is absolutely true. So is yours. The DNC is trying to turn around a huge black eye by tying their candidates rival to the fist. The truth is that Putin cannot stand Obama/Clinton, has absolutely no respect for either of them... and as psyops goes... chaos in the US is good for Russia. Trump is a wild card, probably one Putin feels he can manipulate... and the derision of his election will keep the US battling from within. It is a win-win for Russia, from their standpoint.

    The thing about wild cards is, it might help you, it might not... depending on the lay of the table, and other cards.

    It seems you have no idea of what is going on in this world!
    Don’t you read the newspaper? Or is it Faux Noise is your only news source?

    If you were up on the subject you would have read about the evidence of Russian operative hacking…..

    So far it has been:
    DNC
    Republican National Committee
    National Republican Congressional Committee
    Colin Powell emails
    Condi Rice emails
    White House
    State Department
    DOD
    Several state election registration files
    Medical Records of athletes in Olympics
    Major US Banks
    … and the list goes on………

    Need proof: Google: Russian hacking group

    List of hacker groups
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hacker_groups

    Please try to be informed on subject you seem to be "clueless" about before posting drivel and wasting peoples time.......

    And please get back to us when you might know of what you speak.......

    No proof, simple as that.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Lots of innuendo, no proof. I know that is hard for some to understand because they think propaganda is fact.

    What makes it ironic is that this DNC that soooooooooooooo outraged is the same DNC that colluded with Hillary Clinton to burn Bernie Sanders and his millions of supporters; thus essentially spitting on their votes; and then LAUGHING about it by giving Debbie a promotion and a massive pay increase. Pot, kettle . . . sooty.
