Special Counsel Mueller Charges 12 Russian Intelligence Officers With Hacking Democrats During 2016 Election (cnbc.com)
Special counsel Robert Mueller has obtained a new indictment charging 12 Russian intelligence officers with hacking Democrats to interfere with the 2016 presidential election, and with stealing information of about 500,000 American voters, the Justice Department announced Friday. From a report: The indictment lodged in Washington, D.C., accuses the Russian spies of hacking into the Democratic National Committee and the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, and of releasing emails obtained from that cybersnooping with a a goal of influencing the election. The accused also hacked into state boards of elections, secretaries of state, and into companies that provided software used to administer elections, according to Deputy Attorney Rod Rosenstein. Rosenstein said he briefed President Donald Trump about the case earlier in the week.
If any part of this case relies on the examination of the DNC servers by Crowdstrike then any half competent attorney could take it apart.
1. The server will need to be provided for examination by defense experts.
2. The chain of custody is non-existent.
No server, no evidence. No evidence, no conviction. Even then the lack of any chain of custody calls into question the quality if any evidence found on it.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
Comey's testimony was well over a year ago. It is entirely possible that what he said was true at the time -they really hadn't obtained the DNC server or performed forensic analysis- but that they have since done so. No need for anyone to be lying here.
32 people were charged. 12 of those were GRU (russian) agents. 3 were trump campaign personell. Article does not say who/what the others are.
Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
The mountain gave birth to a mouse.
Perhaps they need basic biology lessons. They're sacrificing biology to teach hacking instead.

Amimojo 15 years from now: "What do you mean it's dragging on? This investigation has produced 577 indictments and as such is the largest political scandal in American history. Investigations of this complexity take time. What does it matter that 567 of those charged are Russian nobodies that never had any chance of appearing in a courtroom? Try to see the big picture here guys! Look, Mueller mental faculties are as sharp as ever, and the wheelchair hasn't slowed him down at all!"
Shes not that bad. Republicans abused their offices and drug her through the mud for years with the fake Bengazi bullshit and all of the conspiracy theories bullshit, just like the propagandists they are. They lied, and smeared her, and their half brain dead base ate it up. You think she's bad because you've heard so many complete fucking idiots parrot the same bullshit for so long. Goebbels came up with that playbook; not surprising that right-wingers are still using it.
Time spent by congress investigating these embassy murders: 0 seconds.
On 15 December 2001, gunmen killed a Nepalese security guard at the U.S. Embassy in Kathmandu.
On 22 January 2002, an attack on the American Center in Calcutta killed five policemen.
On 20 March 2002, a car bomb exploded across the street from the U.S. Consulate General in Lima, Peru killed nine Peruvians.
On 14 June 2002, a truck bomb exploded outside the U.S. Consulate General in Karachi, Pakistan killed 12 people (one U.S. Marine was injured).
On 28 February 2003, a gunman killed two policemen at the U.S. Consulate General in Karachi, Pakistan.
On 30 June 2004, a suicide bomber killed two people (including himself) at the U.S. Embassy in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
On 6 December 2004, Islamist militants attacked the U.S. Consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, killing nine security guards and staff.
On 29 January 2005, a rocket attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad killed two Americans working there.
On 2 March 2006, a car bomb exploded outside the U.S. Consulate General in Karachi, killing at least four, including a U.S. diplomat and his driver.

On 27 November 2008, a car bomb went off about 200 yards from the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, killing at least four.
Yet $14 million (or more, by the end) spent investigating Bengazi after 8 investigations had already shown there was none of the (stupid fucking conservative) conspiracy theories correct. http://www.politifact.com/trut...
You think Hillary is bad because of a partisan hack job by republicans abusing their power for years.

There is what I was waiting for..
Not only do those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) suffer from the ability to separate fantasy from reality, it also clouds their ability to carry on a rational discussion. This should be evident. The subject was incensed by by a factual statement but was unable to refute it. The subject continued to get more agitated as more facts where placed in front of him. Facts that while true, didn't fit with the subjects world view as viewed under the effect of TDS.
The final straw for the subject came when these facts where combined with a rational projection of what will probably happen. Unable to refute these facts and a rational projection that didn't fit with the subjects world view he was driven into a rage (frothing.) This is common result of trying to engage subjects under the effect of TDS.
As clearly seen by the subjects last post in this thread it should be clear that the subject has lost all contact with reality where it comes to a successful Trump presidency. At this point there is nothing more to be gained by continuing to engage such subjects. Medical intervention is usually required after this point.
Any questions?
I read at +2. If your post doesn't reach that level I will not see or respond to it.
