First of all, that sound you hear is Russia, quaking in it's boots, lol

Secondly, the US government conducted espionage against a U.S. presidential campaign, with the goal of either making it lose, or as a fallback to be an "insurance policy" in case that candidate won. Any charges going to filed in that? Anything? Beuller?
