Frankly, if putin and trump do it, i feel like turnabout is fair play, such as people discussing his mental health issues.

Now everybody has a pass. The Russians doctored my emails. The dog ate my emails after the Russians doctored them.

Why wouldn't the hackers alter the emails to suit their needs? They're obviously afraid of Hillary. Everything that's happened shows that.

Does nothing to nullify THE FACTS. Putin has an interest in helping Trump. Criminal hackers have the ability and a good reason to alter emails to their advantage.

Haven't seen a lick of evidence of Trump and his campaign getting hacked. Haven't seen those emails. Wonder why.

Your apparent hatred of our nominee, the Democratic Party, and inability to let the primary go seem to be clouding your judgment, and causing you to wage personal attacks instead of dealing with the facts as they are.

Why are you rooting for Russian hackers?

Are you claiming that because some may lie that their emails were hacked by Russians, we should disregard an instance when it actually happened and act like it's just a pass? That makes no sense.

This is a forum to support Democrats.

This article says that Russians may be creating fake emails to undermine Democrats.

Personally, I think it's pretty sick to take the word of tools working for Putin's fascist empire over our party, our nominee and Democrats working for progress in this country.

Whistleblowers my ass. I'm not naïve enough to think that every single thing that happens in the Democratic Party is on the up and up. But I'm sure as hell not stupid enough to believe at face value the word of Russian criminals before the party.

The DNC should have trotted this out first before admitting that the emails showing that they had bias in running the primary.

Why is it that only the Dems emails have been hacked? Why isn't that question being asked, rather than what may be in the emails? Even if the emails have been doctored before they are released, if they are released, no one from the Reps will believe that. They will use whatever they can to continue their crusade of hate. Katrina Pierson was on CNN saying of course they will use whatever info there is in the emails if it benefits them. So sick of this shit...

It's like the Spanish Inquisition again, with the Republicans happily acting as the judges all the time. They'd rather do that than actual government work since, you know, "big government" is the enemy anyway.

I saw that English a-hole, Stuart Varney, licking his chops on FOX News the other day over any dirt that MIGHT be found from the Justice Department's latest investigation of hacks. I just happened to catch it during one of my brief episodes of FOX-watching masochism.

if this shit was happening to the Rs, this would be a MAJOR national security issue ... Just surreal dealing with wingers mocking liberals for their demonizing Russia meme right now.

WTF?

The DNC would be able to cross verify any email if it wanted to.
