You can both actually be right. No one at the DNC identified errors in the messages or claimed that they were doctored. The emails were sufficiently incriminating that DWS resigned, and others probably should, too. However, because of the chain of custody issues, for the purposes of any criminal charges the emails would be inadmissible as evidence. Were they to indicate some kind of criminal activity, the subsequent investigation would have to develop independent evidence. |
Perhaps the Hillary machine would be inspired to 'discover' her 'lost' emails if they would support her innocence? |
| Two of those voice mails were voice mails of two different ambassadors. One message was on DWS voicemail from an ambassador. Also, one message was a meal with Obama. Clearly pay for contact/meetings/favors. They didn't doctor the voice mails. I heard the ambassadors are livid. |

Trump asked Putin to hack DNC. Basically it is treason and this clown should not be running for President.
How does he know Putin anyways? Maybe it is the Melania connection? She is from the Eastern Bloc, you know. I wonder if that DNC staffer who was killed in DC was actually assassinated by the KGB on Putin's orders? FBI should look at it. |
Business. Trump has a lot of business with Russians. I'll leave you to speculate how above board all of that business is. |
In 2010, Assange threatened to release dirt on Putin. Putin threatened to release polonium in Assange. Assange kept quiet and has gradually evolved into a stooge for Russia, even complaining that the Panama Papers were a dirty trick the West was releasing to embarrass Russia, even though the Panama Papers were pretty much the stock and trade of early Wikileaks. As for the DNC mails, my understanding is that there was some Cyrilic metadata in some of the leaked documents indicating at least some documents were modified or at least opened up by Russian intelligence. When this was pointed out, subsequent leaks have lost the Cyrillic metadata. I suspect the general gist of the emails is true but a few of the truly repugnant emails were added by Russian intelligence for added effect, but have nothing to prove this. I'd also suspect anything really really embarrassing stuff will get released the Thursday or maybe Friday before the election. Or, they'll just be at this level but designed to make some of those wavering between Stein and Clinton go towards Stein. As I've asked on numerous other occasions, when has Wikileaks EVER embarrassed Putin/Russia? I mean, are the truly the most transparent country on the planet, in no need of the sunshine that Wikileaks provides? I know the far-left "Bernie's too right wing" crowd still regards Wikileaks as some sort of guiding force bringing good to the world. I'd like to think anyone to the right of Bernie would realize by now that Wikileaks is very selective in who they bring sunshine and transparency to. |

Finally -- and this will apply to Trump too -- the case against a major-party Presidential candidate in the months before the election would have to be so fucking air tight that Houdini couldn't escape from it.
There'd have to be video evidence, more than ten witnesses, and possibly God Himself descending from Heaven before ANYONE would even think of arresting, much less launching a criminal case against Trump or Clinton at this point. I suspect -- and I could be wrong -- that Clinton/Trump would step aside (or be made to step aside) for someone else, presumably/hopefully Sanders or Cruz/Kasich. But there'd be chaos as the campaign would just need to switch gears and the affected party would likely take a 5-10 point dip in the polls at least initially. (I don't know what would happen if the RNC/DNC tried to force their candidate out but the candidate refused.) If there were an actual trial during the campaign season, the world would just fucking stop for a week or two. It'd be easily the biggest news story in the WORLD for WEEKS. |
Yugoslavia wasn't really part of the Eastern Bloc, not the way the actual Warsaw Pact countries were. Hell, they were even in Eurovision from 1963 until the breakup. |
What if Melania is a sleeper agent!

The few remaining Bernie supporters have shown themselves to be totally rational, and what would look like a weak denial - which, several months later is what it would look like (do you remember every work email you send?) - would just make those same supporters completely hair tearing-out crazy. So what would be the point of denying, even if they are fake? Further splintering of the party? I guess you've never just fallen on your sword to get a problem over with faster. |
| The assumption that Hillary engaged in a criminal act or conspiracy really takes the cake. And of course, even if that was the case, there's little doubt Hillary would of as a matter of course have memorialized her illicit actions in an email. This is right-wing masturbation material. BENGGGHHHHHAAAAAZZZZZZZ IIIII!!!!!! |
You're off the deep end. Please don't try to politicize a tragic and senseless murder. |
The US wants to imprison Assange. Putin has coopted him. |
