Quote:Should the 17 intelligence agencies also be telling it like this is?
Quote:Name them!
Quote:Name them!Seems it's all in here
Quote:They are literally ignoring the legitimate concerns some of the Republicans are expressing when it comes to how Russia has handled itself and its diplomatic relationship with the U.S.
Basically to them it's let's forget about Crimea, forgot about their involvement in Syria. They are turning a blind eye to it.

In summer 2015, an APT29 spearphishing campaign directed emails containing a malicious link to over 1,000 recipients, including multiple U.S. Government victims. APT29 used legitimate domains, to include domains associated with U.S. organizations and educational institutions, to host malware and send spearphishing emails.
Quote:Did you even read that report? It's mostly a description of common attack techniques and "IT safe practices" babble.
Also, the only thing even close to tying Russia to any of it is the small snippet of PHP code from <a class="bbc_url" href='https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2016/12/russia-malware-ip-hack/'>commonly found wordpress malware that has been freely downloadable by the public for years</a>. It's pretty much outdated malware. The original malware was apparently authored in the Ukraine which is next to Russia. Though the link that I provide is a blog, it's far more detailed and is from a reputable source.
Finally, the report doesn't show that "the election was hacked" or that the DNC was specifically targeted. From the report you linked
Quote:Blogs are more reputable than an actual FBI report? Ok whatever. Deny the facts all you want. It doesn't change them from being facts though.

Overall Conclusion
<p style="color:rgb(45,45,45);font-family:'Gotham SSm A', 'Gotham SSm B', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The IP addresses that DHS provided may have been used for an attack by a state actor like Russia. But they don’t appear to provide any association with Russia
. They are probably used by a wide range of other malicious actors, especially the 15% of IP addresses that are Tor exit nodes.
<p style="color:rgb(45,45,45);font-family:'Gotham SSm A', 'Gotham SSm B', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">The malware sample is old, widely used and appears to be Ukrainian. It has no apparent relationship with Russian intelligence
and it would be an indicator of compromise for any website.
<p style="color:rgb(45,45,45);font-family:'Gotham SSm A', 'Gotham SSm B', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">You can find a public repository containing the data used in this report on github.
<p style="color:rgb(45,45,45);font-family:'Gotham SSm A', 'Gotham SSm B', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">As always I welcome your comments. Please note that I will delete any political comments. Our goal in this report is to merely analyze the data DHS provided and share our findings.

Quote:Considering the blog is written by the founder and CEO of one of the cyber-security firms cited in numerous reports, I would certainly call it reputable. Of course it is very detailed and provides hard facts that conclude that there is no way to determine who initiated the attacks. Since you don't seem to be interested in finding out the truth on your own I'll leave you with this conclusion by somebody with far more knowledge of the facts.
Did you even read the report that you linked? What facts from the report indicate that Russia specifically targeted the election?
Quote:I am wondering why you believe that any of the government agencies would feel they have any requirement to lay out every detail or info to average citizens.
It's quite obvious that US intelligence has evidence of an attack. Even the Senate and House believe it.
So bury your head in the sand! Don't care anymore!
Quote:I don't get it. Perhaps I overslept, but when did Republicans/Conservatives/Populists become such apologists for the Soviets?
Somewhere Ronald Reagan is throwing up.
