Hillary Clinton Campaign Reportedly Hacked

Hillary Clinton's campaign was hacked in a series of attacks on Democrat networks, sources tell Reuters. The hack follows two other attacks on the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Reuters reports that the attacks on Clinton's campaign were part of the same "broad cyber attack on Democratic political organizations." U.S. intelligence organizations have concluded that the Russian government was likely involved in the DNC hack, although no perpetrators have been officially named. It is unclear what the hackers accessed in the attack on the Clinton campaign. An FBI spokesperson told BuzzFeed they will prepare a statement on the hack.

3. Political espionage and sabotage

This is looking more and more likely that it's Republican ratfucking behind this. They could've easily sent someone to Russia to supervise or perform the hacks. Sounds like a "high tech" break-in. Where's G. Gordon Liddy of Watergate infamy been hanging out lately?

I really wonder if the Russians are planning on giving the info to Trumps campaign? This would make Watergate look like a tiny indescretion.

I wouldn't put it past that two-bit traitor. Those attacks happened AFTER Manafort took over for Lewandowski.
