I wonder what will happen if a Trump/Putin connection is uncovered?

-------------------

The FBI on Monday confirmed they are investigating a hack into the Democratic National Committee, the first acknowledgment from the agency that they are probing the incident, which US officials suspect came from a Russian cyber attack.

Fallout over the emails led DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz to announce her resignation Sunday.

"The FBI is investigating a cyber intrusion involving the DNC and are working to determine the nature and scope of the matter," the agency said in a statement. "A compromise of this nature is something we take very seriously, and the FBI will continue to investigate and hold accountable those who pose a threat in cyberspace."

The suspected Russian hack is part of a wave of Russian cyber attacks aimed at political organizations and academic think tanks in Washington, US officials briefed on the investigations say.

3. Who do you think illegally hacked the DNC servers? nt

5. No clue.

7. Who would have the greatest motivation to hack the DNC, in your opinion? nt

12. Trump, probably. Whoever did it should be prosecuted, if possible.

But I've no clue who did it or what the FBI might find.

I do know that leaving the data unsecured was gross negligence on the part of the DNC.

9. They hacked months ago and release selected ones right before the

convention...that's the answer to your why.

2. Good!

4. I hope they are investigating Trump and some of his campaign staff as well.

Message to FBI: If you are afraid of a Trump presidency and the damage it will do to America, now is your chance to dig the dirt!

6. Call me crazy, but didn't we know weeks ago that the Russians had hacked into the DNC's emails?

Why is the FBI just starting now to get involved in investigating this?

Or did I read it wrong?

8. Perhaps this is just confirmation. nt

10. I really hope they will make the connection

I want to see that SOB taken down and humiliated and run out of town. I feel this will be Watergate on steroids considering the unsavory characters running his campaign.

The cheeto name will then will associated as a traitor to this country. But will his brain washed zombie supporters still stand lby him?

11. FBI has sent experts to meet with RNC aswell as major campaigns to 'discuss' their security measures

The FBI has sent experts to meet with the Republican National Committee, as well as the major campaigns, to discuss their security measures, the officials say. No similar intrusions have so far been detected at the RNC or the campaigns of the two major party candidates, the officials say.
