“Cambridge Analytica hoped to capitalize on Russian hacking of Hillary Clinton and her ally, an email written by one of its employees indicates,” the Daily Beast reports.

“On July 22, seven days before Cornell’s email, Wikileaks had published almost 20,000 emails it had stolen from the Democratic National Committee.”
