Talk:DNC Leak


 * Trump to get briefing, Intel report says US identifies go-betweens who gave emails to WikiLeaks - CNN, January 6, 2017
 * ''US intelligence has identified the go-betweens the Russians used to provide stolen emails to WikiLeaks, according to US officials familiar with the classified intelligence report that was presented to President Barack Obama on Thursday. Meanwhile, US intelligence has received new information following the election that gave agencies increased confidence that Russia carried out the hack and did so, in part, to help Trump win. Included in that new information were intercepted conversations of Russian officials expressing happiness at Trump's win. Another official described some of the messages as congratulatory.
 * Don't know what actually happened as meaningful facts are not presented. This does not really account for the issue on whether information was hacked or leaked. But media coverage is trying to make mileage out of this anyway. There is hardly any surprise that Trump win was celebrated; most of the world population knew about elections and took a position, one way or another; in Russia, considerable part of population was leaning Trump. Also, November 7 is a traditional holiday (used to be October 1917 revolution day, celebrated in November as old calendar was used in 1917; that was  replaced by a 'national unity day' on November 4, but popular memory is still to have a holiday on November 7, not November 4.) This holiday was celebrated for 2 days, 7-8 November, from 1927 till  1992. There was also Soviet Militia (Police) day on 10 November. (This may cover the US election day, 8 Nov 2016).  --Resup (talk) 14:20, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I think these freaks in "intelligence" and media are just afraid that Trump will rent some real estate in Siberia from Putin and open some old-fashioned labour camps for them. --CE (talk) 14:38, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * "Intercepted communications" = CIA followed the Twitter & VK accounts of senior Russian officials and trolls. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 15:09, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Not that anybody thinks your "and" describes two separate groups: seen the latest gem from MFA Russia? HAR HAR HAR!! ;oD --CE (talk) 15:21, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
