Joy Reid's Tweet on Michelle's Speech~

Joy Reid
✔ ?@JoyAnnReid
BTW Michelle Obama's speech was magnificent. She spoke as a mother, a wife, a black woman and a citizen, and she crushed it.

It's huge.. I saw it starting at the

beginning when wikileaks was warning Joy Reid they would be "monitoring" her.

I said it was the tip of the iceberg.

One last thing: if you’re only looking at this story as an internal DNC scandal, you’re missing the despotic forest for the trees. We can’t emphasize enough: this story is bigger than Bernie or Hillary. It’s bigger than Trump. It speaks directly to the sovereignty of our electoral process. The sooner it’s treated this way, the better off we’ll be.

Yes, it's bigger than Watergate.. It's espionage by a foreign country.

Yes, I get it. Some of the content contained in a handful of the emails (out of a 19,000 email tranche) was fishy in terms of DNC officials expressing dissatisfaction with Bernie Sanders and his campaign. (Bernie’s religious beliefs should never have been discussed, for example.) We’ll circle back to the veracity of the emails momentarily. However, what we know so far greatly outpaces anything damning about the DNC officials themselves. What we know, and what’s rapidly developing by the day, is that it’s becoming increasingly obvious that Putin’s intelligence apparatus broke into the DNC’s network, stole the emails, set up a front account, and handed over the emails to Julian Assange’s Wikileaks organization via that account. We also know that Putin and various Russian oligarchs have been giving money to Donald Trump. And we know that Trump’s foreign policy closely aligns with Putin’s, especially when it comes to the Balkans and NATO, which Trump has repeatedly stated will be allowed to fall to Russian aggression on Trump’s watch.

@JoyAnnReid You are pushing a discredited conspiracy theory. There is no affinity, whatsoever. Our lawyers will monitor your program.

This isn't getting as much attention, but Russian meddling in the U.S. election IS the biggest bombshell out there.

Russian government hackers penetrated DNC, stole opposition research on Trump

The DNC said that no financial, donor or personal information appears to have been accessed or taken, suggesting that the breach was traditional espionage, not the work of criminal hackers.

It's Official: Hillary Clinton Is Running Against Vladimir Putin

Fulfilling what might be the Russian autocrat’s dearest wish, Trump has openly questioned whether the U.S. should keep its commitments to NATO.
