In a series of tweets, a host for several left-wing shows, including Democracy Now, posted some of the testimony from recently released documents. In it, he points to the fact that there is no evidence Russia hacked the DNC and gave the information to Wikileaks.
If you read the various transcripts, you can see similar situations where weighty conclusions were based on inferences, not hard evidence. This would hardly be enough to convict Julian Assange and certainly wasn’t enough to make damaging allegations against the President. We were told they had evidence.
These are transcripts hidden by Rep. Adam ‘shifty’ Schiff.
Interesting admission in Crowdstrike CEO Shaun Henry’s testimony. Henry is asked when “the Russians” exfiltrated the data from DNC.
Henry: “We did not have concrete evidence that the data was exfiltrated from the DNC, but we have indicators that it was exfiltrated.” 🤔 pic.twitter.com/TyePqd6b5P

More from Crowdstrike’s Shaun Henry: “There are times when we can see data exfiltrated, and we can say conclusively. But in this case it appears it was set up to be exfiltrated, but we just don’t have the evidence that says it actually left.” (https://t.co/1mQJBgBMbw) pic.twitter.com/7cmVN4RjSE

This takes me back to the qualified, ambiguous Mueller language I highlighted in my @RCInvestigates report “Crowdstrikeout.” The attribution of DNC hacking to Russia is tentative & appears at least partly based on inference, not hard evidence. (https://t.co/04tKUmNw4Q)

Recall that the Mueller report, in recounting the alleged Russian theft of emails, added the qualifier that the GRU “officers *appear* to have stolen thousands of emails and attachments.” Perhaps they weren’t sure, because Crowdstrike wasn’t either. https://t.co/xyBIUdUS9J pic.twitter.com/eXgPtNSXAr

There’s a quote from Assange — maybe someone can find it, I can’t rn — saying that it’s possible that many different actors, including state actors, got inside the DNC system, but that doesn’t mean they actually stole (aka exfiltrated) the emails Wikileaks later released.

I want to stress what a pretty big revelation this is. Crowdstrike, the firm behind the accusation that Russia hacked & stole DNC emails, admitted to Congress that it has no direct evidence Russia actually stole/exfiltrated the emails.

Henry: “Sir, I was just trying to be factually accurate, that we didn’t see the data leave, but we believe it left, based on what we saw.” pic.twitter.com/VKDCWnCsVd

To be clear, Crowdstrike says it believes Russians hacked into DNC. But it admits to not having direct evidence that Russians actually exfiltrated the emails from DNC. This would track w/ what Assange has said: Russia may have hacked DNC, but they didn’t provide stolen emails.

Correction to 1st tweet in this thread: it’s Shawn Henry, not Shaun. And he is President of CrowdStrike, not CEO. https://t.co/qNOfXk8GzG https://t.co/6PZ954yTse

Hidden Over 2 Years: Dem Cyber-Firm’s Sworn Testimony It Had No Proof of Russian Hack of DNC https://t.co/k2fUCrTLfA

To explain how Russia could have stolen the emails without any trace of them actually leaving the DNC server, Crowdstrike President Shawn Henry improbably told Congress that GRU could have taken “screenshots” of each email as DNC staffers read them. That’s a lot of screenshots! pic.twitter.com/de0tmLL0SM

Why would the comrades need to hack the CPUSA?
They already had backdoors from China and open access via the Paki tech team.
You can bet that the smartest people to ever walk the face of the earth couldn’t find hacking activity on their latrine servers or the ones located down at hammer and sickle headquarters DNC.
Schiff has no evidence of collusion. Schiff is a misfit, enabled by Ryan and his gang of RINOs who sabotaged the house in 2018.
But, the DOJ, the coup department, also has had no evidence of collusion, for 4 years, and no one has been held accountable. ZERO.
