US Intelligence as well as several independent cyber security firms concluded the DNC e-mails were leaked after an attack by Guccifer 2.0. This was followed up by several indictments issued by Special Counsel Robert Mueller which would have to be tried in a federal courtroom were they ever to occur.
That seems to be a fair bit of evidence. Is everything a conspiracy now?
It’s quite clear Russia meddled in the 2016 elections, and they’ll probably do it again in 2020 (if they didn’t already do it again in 2018).

As a result, he left a real, Moscow-based Internet Protocol address in the server logs of an American social media company. (...) Working off the IP address, U.S. investigators identified Guccifer 2.0 as a particular GRU officer working out of the agency’s headquarters on Grizodubovoy Street in Moscow. https://www.thedailybeast.com/exclusive-lone-dnc-hacker-guccifer-20-slipped-up-and-revealed-he-was-a-russian-intelligence-officer https://www.thedailybeast.com/exclusive-lone-dnc-hacker-gucc... seems like intel community did plenty of their own investigations into this.
- pacerwpg 7y agoI think you have the relationship backwards. The DNC was a client of the cyber security firm. That cyber security firm also has the NRCC as a client.
