Mueller report sheds new light on how the Russians hacked the DNC and the Clinton campaign. (excerpt) The hackers used Mimikatz, a hacking tool used once an intruder is already in a target network, to collect credentials, and two other kinds of malware: X-Agent for taking screenshots and logging keystrokes, and X-Tunnel used to exfiltrate massive amounts of data from the network to servers controlled by the GRU. Mueller’s report found that Unit 26165 used several "middle servers" to act as a buffer between the hacked networks and the GRU’s main operations. Those servers, Mueller said, were hosted in Arizona — likely as a way to obfuscate where the attackers were located but also to avoid suspicion or detection. [end quote]
Sounds pretty specific to me. btw, just because the Russian hackers successfully covered up some of the aspects of their crimes does not mean we can't suss out what happened. And Aaron Maté lies about the Russian troll farm case. I told you why that case was dropped. It wasn't due to a lack of evidence. The case was dropped because they were "taking advantage of the discovery process to potentially harm U.S. national security".
Maté isn't a journalist, he's a dissembling stooge.
Dotard said "Russia if you're listening" not "WikiLeaks if you're listening". He knew (and knows) Russia was doing the hacking (at the direction of his collusion buddy Putin). And a conclusion reached with "strong confidence" doesn't equal "no evidence". It means there was a LOT of evidence. Just not "smoking gun" 100 percent conclusive evidence. Which is not unusual in such investigations.
There is also other evidence that says their conclusions are correct. Dotard's admissions and deference to Russia, the Dotard campaign people's many meetings with Russians, Jared's back channel, the fact that there was a Russian mole embedded in his campaign (Paul Manafort), etc. We (those of us paying attention) know Russia hacked the DNC as CONFIRMED in the Mueller report. In spite of the obfuscating being attempted by the many Dotard stooges and suckers.
...and now we know that there is NO evidence that the Russians took ANY files or gave them to ANYBODY. And that comes from CrowdStrike, the Only people to have examined the DNC servers.
The "sarcasm" claim is bullshit. Your claim of "no evidence" is also bullshit. You can "LOL" all you want. Our intelligence agencies STILL say Russian hackers stole files from the DNC and transferred them to WikiLeaks (Chris Wray of the FBI, for example).
The rumor is that Toady Barr and John Durham are trying to cook up "evidence" that proves the "coup" conspiracy theory, but they will fail. The intelligence agencies of other countries have rebuffed Barr because they know the "coup" conspiracy theory is bullshit. #TrumpCrimesCommission will send the Russian puppet Dotard to prison.
"High confidence". Circumstantial evidence is evidence. Hence the use of the word "evidence".
Quote: Circumstantial evidence is evidence that relies on an inference to connect it to a conclusion of fact -- such as a fingerprint at the scene of a crime. ... Different pieces of circumstantial evidence may be required, so that each corroborates the conclusions drawn from the others. Together, they may more strongly support one particular inference over another. [end quote]
Russian digital fingerprints were found. Circumstantial evidence is enough to convict. "The notion that one cannot be convicted on circumstantial evidence is, of course, false. Most criminal convictions are based on circumstantial evidence".
Repeat: MOST CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS ARE BASED ON CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.
Beyond a Reasonable Doubt is the criminal standard. Preponderance of evidence is the civil standard. Is the DNC suing the Russians? Mueller was pursing a criminal case against the Russian troll farm, UNTIL he dropped the case.
The case was dropped because they were "taking advantage of the discovery process to potentially harm U.S. national security".
"The notion that one cannot be convicted on circumstantial evidence is, of course, false. Most criminal convictions are based on circumstantial evidence".
Now I'm just repeating myself. Which wouldn't be necessary if you weren't "illiterate".
If there were a danger to national security sources and methods, them Mueller should have never brought the case, right? But then, this was never about those...
The statement you say was made is nothing but your spin. Not the truth.
btw, it's the "GOP" that consents to Russian interference by blocking election security legislation. While Dotard actively welcomes (and seeks additional) election interference.
Mueller's prosecutor refused to consent to abuse of the discovery process by the law firm representing the troll farm. The statement was "we're not going to let you f*ck us AGAIN".
As for the "AGAIN"... sounds like bluffing the troll farm with an indictment was not only a stupid mistake, but a mistake that the prosecutor made once before and should have learned a lesson from.

No evidence of ANY exfiltration of data. THAT is what CrowdStrike admitted to in sworn testimony. None.
Dotard said "Russia if you're listening" not "WikiLeaks if you're listening". He knew (and knows) Russia was doing the hacking (at the direction of his collusion buddy Putin). And a conclusion reached with "strong confidence" doesn't equal "no evidence". It means there was a LOT of evidence. Just not "smoking gun" 100 percent conclusive evidence.

lol! He heard it from the MSM like everbody else, hence the term "sarcasm" applied.

Congressional testimony BS... Mr. Henry (CrowdStrike) - "There's NO evidence that they were actually exfiltrated. There's circumstantial evidence..."

Sounds like he lacked a little...EVIDENCE.
btw - where was the outcry for "amicus briefs"?
Hypocrties….
From my prior comments...
The case was dropped because they were "taking advantage of the discovery process to potentially harm U.S. national security".
"The notion that one cannot be convicted on circumstantial evidence is, of course, false. Most criminal convictions are based on circumstantial evidence".
Now I'm just repeating myself. Which wouldn't be necessary if you weren't "illiterate".
lol!
The case was dropped for a lack of evidence.
:)
That's the lie that serves your narrative. It's not the truth. btw, who's behind the "United Spot" videos? Russia, White Nationalists, or both?
If there were a danger to national security sources and methods, them Mueller should have never brought the case, right? But then, this was never about those...
YOU say "silence = consent". Mueller was saying (with his charges) that what they did was a crime and that the US does not consent.
lol!
Except that instead of silence constituting "consent" Mueller's prosecutor actively withdrew the charges and affirmatively "consented".
Now THAT's how you use indictments" to make "Statements".
The statement you say was made is nothing but your spin. Not the truth.
btw, it's the "GOP" that consents to Russian interference by blocking election security legislation. While Dotard actively welcomes (and seeks additional) election interference.
Mueller's prosecutor refused to consent to abuse of the discovery process by the law firm representing the troll farm. The statement was "we're not going to let you f*ck us AGAIN".
The statement you say was made is nothing but your spin.
You see the picture for this video before you even click? It's from the Committee transcript. So much for "spin"...
As for the "AGAIN"... sounds like bluffing the troll farm with an indictment was not only a stupid mistake, but a mistake that the prosecutor made once before and should have learned a lesson from.
You admitted your lie when you quoted the transcript (in your comment above)... "There's circumstantial evidence...".
No evidence... BWAH!
Circumstances being merely "Indicators".
"Mr Henry - There's not evidence that they were actually exfiltrated."
The transcript doesn't lie.
"The notion that one cannot be convicted on circumstantial evidence is, of course, false. Most criminal convictions are based on circumstantial evidence".
