Don't forget Russia -- or is it North Korea now?

CNN propaganda machine is pathetic.

cnn isn't a propaganda outlet, so not really sure what you're talking about. unless it's just the general patheticness of CNN, that would make sense.

Well, that's not "regardless of the outcome". If nothing is found, then there's a paper trail showing nothing of note. They only need a lesson if you actually find on-the-books corruption...

And that's assuming this is even real.

According to this NYT guy it's apparently just public stuff lol. The devastating Assange leaks will arrive every minute. Buy his book, it's 40% off

Even file systems hate Philadelphia. Had to give it its own folder just to keep it away from everything else.

There have been plenty of other shitty leaks so this is just one more in a line of many.

So Guccifer 2.0 basically hacked records that were available to the public and is bragging about how they had very little security on it?

That excel spread sheet proves a whole lot. Verified 100% accurate. I also like how there are no dates and the table is labeled "Tarp funds" so we 100% know its dirty shit. Like the Tarp funds were paid back. Who got them was public, along with the amounts. Super packs are required to list their who donates. You could make this list by merging two excel spreadsheets.

Also like how the third column is "Amount of" and is truncated. Because, you know, screenshots are high value real estate, can't add those extra 20 pixels to show what that amount represents. Nope, gotta cut off the context and then describe it outside of the image.

Why do all these "leaks" have to be so bush league? If it's a big deal then the material should speak for itself.

You're right. It is missing the stamp that says, "CERTIFIED," at the bottom. I swear I saw it there earlier... None the less, the documents are not proven to be true yet, but in a few days time we'll know.

Because there is no smoking gun and you have to fluff it up to keep the drama going before people inevitably realize it is nothing and move on, while leaving behind the tiny sliver in your mind that there was once this shady thing about the Clinton Foundation so that enough of these slivers pile on to created a general feeling of 'scum' without ever having provided anything worth a damn.

You know, how the entire 'Hillary is crooked' scenario has gone.

Yes, why a server used by the Democratic candidate for campaign documentation contain a folder about the Democratic national Convention. What ever would she have to do there....

plz...
