Russian asset
But why not let the FBI examine it, unless the DNC has something to hide?
Maybe even something to do with the millionaire Pakistani IT guy.
Republicans should call for a separate SP.
This doesn't answer my questions
It wasn't an independent occurrence, complementing this hack they already had proof of Russian attempts to hack State election records, initiating media fabrications, and history of similar attempts in previous European elections, it was a tsunami of evidence pointing directly at Russia
It very well could be that, but it isn't that the Russian hack is a hoax as annatta continues to claim.

I think Mueller should set up an office inside Crowdstrike so his investigators can work in comfort.....
the entire thing is based on Crowdstrike's assessment..why did the DNC resuse to turn it over?
Even Comey had no good answer..
This is basic procedure..also crowdstrike has screwed up before.. readthe link

Are all U.S. government agencies simply listening to what Crowdstike said in coming to their “independent” conclusions that Russia hacked the DNC? If so, that’s a huge problem. Particularly considering what Voice of America published yesterday in a piece titled,*Cyber Firm at Center of Russian Hacking Charges Misread Data:
An influential British think tank and Ukraine’s military are disputing a report that the U.S. cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike has used to buttress its claims of Russian hacking in the presidential election.
*
The*CrowdStrike report, released in December, asserted that Russians hacked into a Ukrainian artillery app, resulting in heavy losses of howitzers in Ukraine’s war with Russian-backed separatists.
*
But the*International Institute for Strategic Studies*(IISS) told VOA that CrowdStrike erroneously used IISS data as proof of the intrusion. IISS disavowed any connection to the CrowdStrike report. Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense also has claimed combat losses and hacking never happened.
*
The challenges to CrowdStrike’s credibility are significant because the firm was the first to link last year’s hacks of Democratic Party computers to Russian actors, and because CrowdStrike co-founder Dimiti Alperovitch has trumpeted its Ukraine report as more evidence of Russian election tampering.

document the fact that those two investigated the DNC computers, then document who told them what to say.....

one based on an official investigation instead of one based on an employee of the DNC.......

no one is keeping the FBI from investigating anything asshole.
they only investigate things that show evidence of a crime.
your shit is being investigated because a crime took place

fully immersed in faith..
no......it was an employee of the DNC telling the FBI......
tighten up your language if you want to represent my characterizations.
I claim serious doubts, based on flawed methodology of attribution by malware
( like malware can't be copied and used by others??) without FBI/government looking at the source..
we are completely dependent on Crowdstrike and Deep State's hostility to Russia
( Clapper non-classified assessment) as impeccable
PostmodernProphet
fully immersed in faith..
if it is that (and it could be), then it obviously isn't a Russian hack and the claim that it was MUST be a hoax, true?......

why did you change your name
Oh, must have been Wasserman Schultz, then she knocked off Seth Rich, that would bring your conspiracy full circle, does Hannity know this?
So, why would three agencies lie? You still haven't answered my questions.
Crowdstrike founder Alperovitch is a Nonresident Senior Fellow of the Atlantic Council, and head honcho of its “Cyber Statecraft Initiative” – of which his role in promoting the “Putin did it” scenario is a Exhibit A. James Carden, writing in The Nation, makes the trenchant point that
“The connection between Alperovitch and the Atlantic Council has gone largely unremarked upon, but it is relevant given that the Atlantic Council – which is funded in part by the US State Department, NATO, the governments of Latvia and Lithuania, the Ukrainian World Congress, and the Ukrainian oligarch Victor Pinchuk – has been among the loudest voices calling for a new Cold War with Russia.”
Adam Johnson, writing on the FAIR blog, adds to our knowledge by noting that the Council’s budget is also supplemented by “a consortium of Western corporations (Qualcomm, Coca-Cola, The Blackstone Group), including weapons manufacturers (Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman) and oil companies (ExxonMobil, Shell, Chevron, BP).”
Johnson also notes that CrowdStrike currently has a $150,000 / year, no-bid contract with the FBI for “systems analysis.”
Nice work if you can get it.
This last little tidbit gives us some insight into what is perhaps the most curious aspect of the Russian-hackers-campaign-for-Trump story: the FBI’s complete dependence on Crowdstrike’s analysis. Amazingly, the FBI did no independent forensic work on the DNC servers before Crowdstrike got its hot little hands on them: indeed, the DNC denied the FBI access to the servers, and, as far as anyone knows, the FBI never examined them. BuzzFeed quotes an anonymous “intelligence official” as saying “Crowdstrike is pretty good. There’s no reason to believe that anything they have concluded is not accurate.”
There is now.
Alperovitch is scheduled to testify before the House Intelligence Committee, and one wonders if our clueless – and technically challenged – Republican members of Congress will question him about the debunking of Crowdstrike’s rush to judgment. I tend to doubt it, since the Russia-did-it meme is now the Accepted Narrative and no dissent is permitted – to challenge it would make them “Putin apologists”! (Although maybe Trey Gowdy, the only GOPer on that panel who seems to have any brains, may surprise me.)
As I’ve been saying for months, there is no evidence that the Russians hacked the DNC: none, zilch, nada. Yet this false narrative is the entire basis of a campaign launched by the Democrats, hailed by the Trump-hating media, and fully endorsed by the FBI and the CIA, the purpose of which is to “prove” that Trump is “Putin’s puppet,” as Hillary Clinton put it. Now the investigative powers of the federal government are being deployed to confirm that the Trump campaign “colluded” with the Kremlin in an act the evidence for which is collapsing.
This whole affair is a vicious fraud. If there is any justice in this world – and there may not be – the perpetrators should be charged, tried, and jailed.

you are intelligent. I shouldn't have to spoon feed you conclusions.
I've given you plenty of evidence of doubt. Only the FBI does the forensics that the assessment is based on -and they didn't even do tht.
The CIA and the NSA basically went along for the ride.
do you want my assessment?

Quite the busy little Russia bot, aren't you? Crowdstrike reportedly shared all they had with the FBI. And no, the claim that Russia interfered with the U.S. election isn't (solely) dependent on whether Russia hacked the DNC servers, your wild-eyed proclamations to the contrary notwithstanding. And no, the CIA and the NSA didn't merely go along for the ride.
Of course, there are good reasons for the FBI not to do independent forensics, ranging from not wasting public funds to do duplicate work, to the privacy rights even the DNC enjoys, even though your authoritarian leanings would love to see such rights to go away, and the government to have access to whatever they want to scrutinize.
Why don't you just waddle off, bot?
