OR Maybe a Combination of Hack & Leak?

I heard Obama yesterday give a definitive answer to the
storyline that Russia hacked the DNC to disseminate info to hurt Crooked Hillary
to the favor of Donald Trump. I’ve read some Republican elites like Senator
John McCain and Senator Lindsey Graham are also towing the Obama line of a
Russian hack.
BUT STILL no one connected to Intelligence Community
investigation has released any definitive evidence against the Ruskies. These
Intelligence investigators have even refused the Constitutional oversight of
Senate and House Intelligence Committees who actually have security clearance
for such a review.
NOW LET’S BE CLEAR, I am not exonerating Russians of
nefarious actions against the United States. Ever since the Russians went
Communist, their power elites have worked for despotic global domination. Since
the end of WWII Russians have been to achieve a status of geopolitical/military
superiority. Communism has been the preferred ideology. Even after the Soviet
Union dissolved Communism has had an ideological influence among Russian
elites. After all Putin himself was a former KGB official in the Soviet spy
apparatus.
I have no trust for Russian motives. BUT GUESS WHAT,
neither do I trust anything to do with Obama minions and the Left Wing Dem
Party in general.
Until Donald Trump is sworn in as the 45th
President of the United States, I am going to continue to speculate the Dems
are trying to pull a fast one to keep Trump from becoming President. If it
happens it could unconstitutional political means or coup involving Leftists
politically or even Obama instigating the military he so decimated of Patriot
leadership of the last eight years. I have no doubt any of these attempts will
result in America’s second Civil War.
In which case I pray a smooth peaceful transition from Obama
Leftists to Trump populists takes place on January 20, 2017.
Below are some excerpts that should make you question the
validity of the Obama narrative and Russia:
The Obama administration
suggested earlier Thursday that Russian President Vladimir Putin personally
authorized the hacking of Democratic officials' email accounts in the run-up to
the presidential election and said it was "fact" that such actions
helped Donald Trump's campaign. The White House also assailed Trump himself,
saying he must have known of Russia's interference.
No proof was offered for any
of the accusations, the latest to unsettle America's uneasy transition from
eight years under Democratic President Barack Obama to a new Republican
administration led by Trump. The claims of Russian meddling in the
election also have heightened already debilitating tensions between Washington
and Moscow over Syria, Ukraine and a host of other disagreements. (Obama: US Will Take Action Against Russia
for Hacking; Newsmax; 12/15/16 08:37 PM)
Hmm…
WASHINGTON (AP) — The FBI is
supporting the CIA's conclusion that Russia interfered in the presidential
election with the goal of supporting Republican candidate Donald Trump.
In a message sent to employees, CIA
Director John Brennan said he had spoken with FBI Director James Comey and
James Clapper, the director of national intelligence.
Brennan said in the message that
"there is strong consensus among us on the scope, nature, and intent of
Russian interference in our presidential election."
A U.S. official who had seen
the unclassified message from Brennan confirmed it to The Associated Press on
Friday.
President Barack Obama is promising
that the U.S. will retaliate against Russia for its suspected meddling in
America's election process, an accusation the Kremlin has vehemently denied.
…
White House officials said it was
"fact" that Russian hacking helped Donald Trump's campaign against
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. White House press secretary
Josh Earnest on Thursday also assailed Trump himself over his refusal to acknowledge
the hacking and his attacks on the U.S. intelligence community.
…
There has been no specific,
persuasive evidence shared publicly about the extent of Putin's role or
knowledge of the hackings. That lack of proof undercuts Democrats' strategy to portray
Putin's involvement as irrefutable evidence of a directed Russian government
plot to undermine America's democratic system.
But the White House pointed to a
U.S. intelligence assessment released publicly in October that asserted
"only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized these
activities." And Obama's deputy national security adviser, Ben Rhodes,
connected the dots further, saying Thursday Putin was responsible for the
Russian government's actions. (Official: FBI backs CIA conclusion on

More news that shows there is more to the story than Obama
and the Dems are sharing with Americans.
There are several problems with
the theory, not the least of which is that there is no evidence that the
election was influenced by the Russians. None.
President Obama openly dismissed
the idea that the Russians could have influenced the election.
Another issue is that the
Republican National Committee asked the FBI to investigate whether it had been
hacked and – after a lengthy investigation – found that, in fact, the RNC had
not been subjected to hacking attempts. (Diplomat Claims DNC Leak Source is NOT
Russian Hackers, But Inside Party Whistleblower; By Melissa Davis; US Herald)
More on a DNC Whistleblower:
...
A Wikileaks envoy today claims he
personally received Clinton campaign emails in Washington D.C. after they were
leaked by ‘disgusted’ whisteblowers – and not hacked by Russia.
Craig Murray, former British
ambassador to Uzbekistan and a close associate of Wikileaks founder Julian
Assange, told Dailymail.com that he flew to Washington, D.C. for a clandestine
hand-off with one of the email sources in September.
‘Neither of [the leaks] came from
the Russians,’ said Murray in an interview with Dailymail.com on Tuesday. ‘The
source had legal access to the information. The documents came from inside
leaks, not hacks.’
His account contradicts directly
the version of how thousands of Democratic emails were published before the
election being advanced by U.S. intelligence.
If we’re to take Murray at his
word, he flew to the United States specifically to meet with an unnamed
Democratic National Committee operative. They allegedly made contact “in a
wooded area near American University, in northwest D.C.” The Democrat was
supposedly disgusted at the DNC’s efforts to tilt the primary in Hillary’s
favor and against Bernie Sanders, as well as being worried that corruption at
the Clinton Global Initiative could wind up costing them the election. (Wikileaks source: The emails came from
inside the DNC, not Russia; By JAZZ SHAW; Hot Air;

The Washington Times is going with a DNC
Whistleblower leak more than the Obama/Dem/Leftist MSM assertion of a Russian
hack of the DNC:
…
Meanwhile, several former
intelligence officials outlined this week why they believe signs in the
situation point to an inside leak, and not a hack by an outside actor.
If hacking
were involved, the National Security Agency would likely have digital
footprints that could be used to back up the CIA’s claims, wrote the former
officials, led by former NSA official William Binney.
“In sum, given what we know of
NSA’s existing capabilities, it beggars belief that NSA would be unable to
identify anyone — Russian or not — attempting to interfere in a U.S. election
by hacking,” Mr. Binney and the officials wrote in the memo, published by
Consortium News.
Craig Murray, a former British
ambassador to Uzbekistan and associate of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange,
said emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign were, in fact, leaked by a
whistleblower disgusted with the Clintons.
“Neither of [the leaks] came from
the Russians,” Mr. Murray told the Daily Mail. “The source had legal access to
the information. The documents came from inside leaks, not hacks.” (Sen. Ron Johnson: CIA refused briefing in
wake of Russia hacking reports; By David Sherfinski; Washington
Times; 12/16/16)
