    Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

    You have to give credit today to President Trump for imposing sanctions on Russia for election meddling in 2016.

    "The Trump administration imposed sanctions on a series of Russian organizations and individuals on Thursday in retaliation for interference in the 2016 presidential election and other “malicious cyber-attacks,” its most significant action against Moscow since President Trump took office."

    The White House also revealed that Russia tried to penetrate the USA electrical system.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/15/us/politics/trump-russia-sanctions.html

    "The President has repeatedly dismissed the suggestion that Russia sought to influence the vote in his favor as a “hoax” and “fake news,” even as a special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, has concluded otherwise and is investigating whether Mr. Trump’s campaign collaborated with Russian agents."

    "The sanctions targeted the three Russian organizations and 13 individuals indicted by Mr. Mueller for an audacious operation spreading disinformation and propaganda to disrupt American democracy and, eventually, promote Mr. Trump. The sanctions also targeted two other organizations and six individuals in response to various cyber-attacks dating to March 2016, including a previously unconfirmed attempt to penetrate the American energy grid."
    “The administration is confronting and countering malign Russian cyber-activity, including their attempted interference in U.S. elections, destructive cyber-attacks and intrusions targeting critical infrastructure,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in a statement. “These targeted sanctions are a part of a broader effort to address the ongoing nefarious attacks emanating from Russia.”

    The measures were an important statement by an administration that has avoided taking action on election interference, but the tangible impact of freezing assets and barring business transactions may be minimal.

    The administration also took the unusual step of naming the Russian government as the force behind a series of intrusions into American power plants and the computer networks that control power grids. The attacks, known as “Dragonfly,” pierced many layers of security and would have allowed the intruders to sabotage systems, experts say. But there is no evidence any sabotage took place.

    Democrats said the sanctions made it harder for Mr. Trump to dismiss Mr. Mueller’s investigation as an illegitimate political exercise.

    I take it you believe that a guy who is personally trying to undermine his boss ought to keep his job?

    You say that as if you believe his boss is something special.
    Tillerson was not trying to undermine trump. He was doing his job.
    Now trump has his lackey installed as SOS. This should be fun to watch.

    Doesn't matter what I think of his Boss. When a subordinate undermines his boss, he gets fired. That's just what happens.

    Disagreeing is not undermining. trump seems to think if people disagree with him they should be fired. Good leaders will install people with differing opinions, bad leaders will install "yes men". Guess which way trump is going.

    He was setting up European strategies to keep Trump from eliminating the Iran deal. This was a big deal--something he campaigned on. He was undermining Trump's promise to the American people.

    The Opening Argument in the Trial of Donald J. Trump

    May it please the court. Ladies and gentlemen: This is a simple case about a plot hatched during the 2016 presidential election. The story begins with close business contacts between the Defendant, Donald John Trump, and Russian oligarchs, including some who obtained and distributed illegally hacked emails belonging to the Democratic Party in order to help Trump win. It continues with Trump and his associates—after receiving stolen goods—promising a major favor to the Russians in return for their criminal activity. And it ends with the Defendant Trump trying to cover up his crimes. Actually, the true end of the story is in your hands—when justice and accountability are restored.

    Government knows DNC hacker was Russian intel officer: report

    U.S. investigators have reportedly discovered that "Guccifer 2.0," the hacker who claimed credit for a breach of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) during the 2016 election, revealed himself as a Russian intelligence operative.


    The Daily Beast reports that U.S. investigators identified the hacker as a Moscow-based Russian intelligence operative after the hacker failed to activate a virtual private networking (VPN) service meant to obscure the operative's location before logging on.


    The result was the operative's Moscow IP address being caught in the logs of a U.S. social media company, allowing U.S. investigators to track the individual.
