Related: About this forumWhat the Fake Guccifer Hack DOES tell us:
The Republicans got caught hacking the Dems.
Now, there is all this misdirection pointing to Russians and Putin. It is all a stream of bullshit, all part of the cover-up. The only iondication that there is a Russia connection is the IP address of the computer in Russia that the malware code directyed communication to. That's because hackers use a server in Russia to avoid being caught hacking in the USA.
The leak could be part of the cover-up. The leak could be someone exposing the hack. Where is there any evidence the leaker is the hacker. Is the leaker part of the cover-up of who the hacker is, pretending to be someone in Russia or Bulgaria, or anyone but a Republican operative?
The number one suspect has to be Donald Trump. Number two has to be Roger Stone, and I'm sure you all know the rest of the list, Paul Manafort, .... yata, yata ....

(1,681 posts)I've reviewed them myself and they are most certainly not from the Clinton Foundation, they appear to be mostly VADP documents. I don't think Russia or Republicans are involved, but this leak is not what it claims to be.

A computer server in Russia was involved. That does not implicate anyone in Russia. Anyone can get space on a server in Russia for a few bucks a month.
As to why you would claim the Republicans are not involved is a mystery you have not explained. Who else would hack the Dems, Jill Stein? Or Gary Johnson?
We are having a Presidential election and we have been hacked. "It could be anyone" as Trump claims is flat-out bullshit!
