Rush: DNC Server Hack Story Isn't Done Yet
2016-07-27
RUSH: The hack of a DNC server. The Democrats just can't wait to tell you the Russians did it, and they're dragging out all of these security experts to tell you that there are signals, there are bits of evidence that the Russian hackers did it. There were two teams, two different Russian hacker teams working independently. They didn't know they were both inside the Democrat National Committee server. This is the story. One was the old KGB, and the other was the defense security. Two different "apartments," Apartment 28, Apartment 29, APT28 and APT29 -- two different hacker groups, Russian intel -- were in the DNC server at the same time.

They say there are crumbs of evidence that the cyber intelligence people have found. Okay, maybe, but it's awfully convenient. There's a lot to say about this, folks, this hacking business. To me, the most important thing about this is it isn't over. There is much more to come. We don't know when it's coming, but I think we can rest assured that whoever hacked the Democrat National Committee computer network also hacked Hillary's idiotic private little server in the basement in Chappaqua.

And whoever that is... If it's Russian cyber intelligence, if it's some 17-year-old kid in his pajamas in Idaho, whoever it is, they've got that, too, and that's coming. That is going to be released, or it's gonna be withheld and blackmail her with. A lot of people say, "Rush, why would the Russians do this? Why wouldn't the Russians collect the data and hold on to it and blackmail her after she becomes elected? Wouldn't that be more effective for them than having to deal with Trump?"

Well, they could have their cake and eat it, too, on this. But Hillary Clinton's already sold access to her presidency through the foundation. And, believe me, there are emails about that, and those emails are gonna drop. And Julian Assange at WikiLeaks has pretty much intimated this is gonna happen. But whatever. This isn't over. Nobody knows when the next dump is gonna happen. And nobody knows if there has been any purloining of data from the RNC computer network. Now, Trump does not do email, so there isn't any scoop to get on him.

#16  And where in all this mess does the NSA stand?

If they were doing their job they'd release Hillary's emails in order to immunize her, to the extent possible, from blackmail.

#15  Answer the question, who benefits from the Dhimocrats having their dirty laundry aired and get Russia blamed for it?

The American People (and everyone else on Earth).

#12  And where in all this mess does the NSA stand? Yes, I know they work silently. But we spend billions yearly for silence. I can recall in the Bank of Credit and Commerce scandal the NSA had intercepts on Jimmy Carter, his Georgia cabal, and Democrat politicos that was legally actionable. However, true to their vow of silence when it came to intercepts of American citizens, the information was never divulged.

#11  Ship, when you keep the merchandise in the store window you can't complain that people looked.

#10  There is a certain point in security where it's not a matter of who did it. It was left in the open, everyone looks. Ima mulling an analogy, don't have yet.

#9  Who cares who hacked who? What's more important is the clear evidence of just how evil democrats are. They are simply complaining about how they got found out instead of defending their actions.

#8  The Democrats just can't wait to tell you the Russians did it, and they're dragging out all of these security experts to tell you that there are signals, there are bits of evidence that the Russian hackers did it.

Maybe should have consulted some of these security experts before they got hacked. These people can't be trusted to secure an email server and they expect voters to trust them with national security? That's the issue.

#7  The Russian-Trump story seems too convenient and fabricated--much like the Benghazi video B.S. The FBI is investigating the "hack" but not the voter fraud (suppression/hacking vote machines/vote stealing) in the Dem primaries? Give me a break. I would tend to think this might be an inside job as #3 said--pissed-off Bernie supporters have been yelling about fraud by the Hillary campaign for sometime now. There are several lawsuits regarding these fraud claims.

#6  I'm with Mullah Richard: inside job at the DNC, with the guy leaving the "bits of evidence" to mislead the hounds.

I have heard that Assange detests Shrillary: enough motive for me.

By the by...what is the state of cyber security at the Clinton Foundation? No money in that apartment where shrillary kept her e-mail drop, er server, and the DNC is chicken feed compared to the foundation. Follow the money...who else wouldn't?

#5  Well, Soros would blame Russia for everything. He sees them as a threat to his plans for the New World Order.

Plus having the 'dump' this early in the game allows the DNC to make the motions of housecleaning to present a 'Squeaky Clean Persona' by November (not that it would actually be one, just appear to be one).

#4  The "crumbs" they found are only circumstantial and could very well be faked. It sounds more to me like a false flag operation. Someone wanted the Russians blamed.

Answer the question, who benefits from the Dhimocrats having their dirty laundry aired and get Russia blamed for it? Then you know where to look for who did it.

#3  Could be an inside job, too. Some IT person feeling the 'Bern' (or just not in the tank for Billary) and disgusted at what they saw as SOP day after day.

#2  It took the FBI years to find nothing related to Hillary emails. I do not believe there is any evidence who hacked the DNC; yet.

#1  Interesting: "Trump does not do email, so there isn't any scoop to get on him"
