    So what. I am not vman12. I am not required to agree with him all the time. He has his opinion and I have mine. He is a big boy and can defend his own opinion. He does not need me to defend it for him.

    Yeah. Crowdstrike.

    Guess who they worked for.

    I liked this part though:

    “In the intelligence world, it’s as incontrovertible as it can get,” said Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the House intelligence committee.

    Schiff is, after all, their best and brightest.

    These are the same people that were "positive" that Saddam had WMD and missed 9/11.

    You do remember WMD, yeah?

    Oh oh you'll confuse him now.

    We're supposed to group-think like them I guess.

    I see you didn’t read the link. Why ask for proof and ignore it?

    Prosecutors also hinted at still broader knowledge. They described the computer network through which hackers moved documents stolen from the DNC and DCCC. They detailed the dates on which hackers activated specific parts of their malware, which recorded users’ keystrokes and took digital pictures of what was on their screens. And they logged the search terms on a Russian computer server used by a separate Russian intelligence group in charge of leaking the stolen emails.

    Ever notice that no one mentions selling a house via a "land contract" since the Carter administration?

    You might want to reread what I posted before you put words in my mouth. I didn't say that nobody disputes that Russia hacked the DNC server. I said:

    "I don't think there are many people denying that Russians attempted to influence our elections with illegal activities and a propaganda campaign."

    I don't even see the word "nobody" and I don't see the words "hacked the DNC servers" either.....though I can possibly see how you might have inferred the "hacked DNC servers" part.

    Hillary's "baggage" cost the Dems the election.

    Biden could've easily beaten Trump.

    Oh I did read it.

    That's how I pulled out a specific part of it about halfway through and laughed about it.

    Did you not read my post?

    Here is the totality of their "evidence":

    Anyone could do the below things, especially if they wanted to blame the Russians.

    For one thing, data embedded in the files showed that they had been edited by someone whose computer had Russian language settings. The malicious software that had been implanted on the DNC’s servers bore striking similarity to programs used in previous attacks that other governments had said were carried out by the Russians. Malware often forces infected computers to communicate with machines elsewhere on the internet, to receive commands and steal information. Researchers found the malware on the DNC network was communicating with the same computers as malware that had been used against the German parliament.


    Researchers at SecureWorks studied emails stolen from Clinton’s campaign manager John Podesta and found another clue. Among the emails eventually published by the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks was the original message that was thought to have tricked Podesta into revealing his password, a technique called "spearphishing" that's widely used by criminals to trick people into revealing bank or email passwords. Researchers followed the link in that email to the link-shortening service Bitly and found that whoever had created the link in Podesta’s email had created thousands of links to target other email accounts, including those of many people working for the Clinton campaign.

    He merely missed the potential opportunity to ask Mr. Trump to ask Mrs. Clinton to be VP and help the left enact left wing polices.

    You can keep distorting it and not accepting the results, fine with me. :)

    We were discussing the DNC hack, not Mueller.... why did you just change subjects and deflect?

    Always trying to deflect..... :)

    Why didn't the DNC learn how to password protect her private server and their emails?

    Putin gave Hillary $145 million. That helped the Russians in their efforts to get their sanctions eased.... Did Hillary ask Putin for help against Trump? Maybe. :)

    Hillary colluded with the Russians. :)

    No Russia didn’t give her 145 million unless you think russia and Canada are the same country.
    We know russia helped trump and that trump welcomed it. Mueller told us.

    I can think of several old tactics no longer needed to sell homes.

    Lease options once were in vogue. Partnerships once used are not in vogue now. I do not hear of sellers playing much of a role in finance for the buyers now. So no, the land contract is a dinosaur.
