BTW Michelle Obama's speech was magnificent. She spoke as a mother, a wife, a black woman and a citizen, and she crushed it.

Yes, it's bigger than Watergate.. It's espionage by a foreign country.

Thank you for this.
It's huge.. I saw it starting at the
beginning when wikileaks was warning Joy Reid they would be "monitoring" her.
I said it was the tip of the iceberg.
One last thing: if youre only looking at this story as an internal DNC scandal, youre missing the despotic forest for the trees. We cant emphasize enough: this story is bigger than Bernie or Hillary. Its bigger than Trump. It speaks directly to the sovereignty of our electoral process. The sooner its treated this way, the better off well be.
Yes, it's bigger than Watergate.. It's espionage by a foreign country.
Yes, I get it. Some of the content contained in a handful of the emails (out of a 19,000 email tranche) was fishy in terms of DNC officials expressing dissatisfaction with Bernie Sanders and his campaign. (Bernies religious beliefs should never have been discussed, for example.) Well circle back to the veracity of the emails momentarily. However, what we know so far greatly outpaces anything damning about the DNC officials themselves. What we know, and whats rapidly developing by the day, is that its becoming increasingly obvious that Putins intelligence apparatus broke into the DNCs network, stole the emails, set up a front account, and handed over the emails to Julian Assanges Wikileaks organization via that account. We also know that Putin and various Russian oligarchs have been giving money to Donald Trump. And we know that Trumps foreign policy closely aligns with Putins, especially when it comes to the Balkans and NATO, which Trump has repeatedly stated will be allowed to fall to Russian aggression on Trumps watch.

Russian government hackers penetrated DNC, stole opposition research on Trump
The DNC said that no financial, donor or personal information appears to have been accessed or taken, suggesting that the breach was traditional espionage, not the work of criminal hackers.
