Theres the recent claims of a Romanian hacker named Marcel Lehel Lazar, also known as Guccifer. His statements are addressed in an NBC News article titled Hacker Guccifer Claims He Got Into Hillary Clintons Server
<...>
Guccifer is likely telling the truth, and former FBI agent Chris Tarbell states To go on television and admit to a felony you didnt commit seems a little silly.
<....
Guccifers relevance in 2016 is enormous. Touching upon this impact, The Daily Beast has a brilliant article by Shane Harris titled Hillarys Secret Email Was a Cyberspys Dream Weapon
<...>
While Hillary supporters are dancing in the streets after hearing anonymous sources stating she didnt willfully break laws, the FBI hasnt formally concluded anything. I explain how the Clinton campaign, and its supporters, view the FBI in the following YouTube segment. Ultimately, this viewpoint, combined with the likelihood that Guccifer did indeed compromise Clintons server, will give Bernie Sanders the Democratic nomination.

News from today:
By Katie Bo Williams - 07/07/16 12:50 PM EDT
The hacker who exposed Hillary Clintons use of a personal email account never gained access to her private server, FBI Director James Comey testified Thursday.
The hacker Guccifer, whose real name is Marcel Lehel Lazar, hacked the email account of longtime Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal and claimed he broke into the server Clinton used when she was secretary of State.
But those claims were bogus, Comey told the House Oversight Committee during his testimony on the investigation into Clintons use of a personal email server.
He did not gain access to Clinton's server, he admitted that was a lie, Comey said in response to questions from Rep. Blake Farenthold

(2,542 posts)Progressive Entertainment Complex. Like Robert Reich and Cenk Uygur, he's got a lot of confirmation-bias-boosting content to sell to gullible leftwingers. A fool and his money are soon parted, and Goodman has helped identify a lot of fools to be targeted for future fleecing.
But Goodman will always be a murderer in my eyes, because he killed the myth that to be progressive means that you're educated, rational, and exist in a fact-based universe.

(135,425 posts)He put all his money down on one number, spun the wheel, and lost. EVERYTHING.
I hear they're hiring at Dairy Queen. He'll have to find some way to make the rent.
He's certainly never going to be regarded as a "credible journalist" ever, EVER again. He wasn't even a good propagandist--his natterings were of Baghdad Bob proportions.
