Even The Nation, a liberal/progressive publication, now acknowledges the DNC emails were a leak, not a hack.

A recent article published by The Nation suggests that some left-leaning publications are finally catching up with what many of us have already been aware of for months.

The DNC leaks were a leak, not a hack.

The Nation, a liberal/progressive and very anti-Trump media outlet, recently published an article headlined:

"A New Report Raises Big Questions About Last Year’s DNC Hack
Former NSA experts say it wasn’t a hack at all, but a leak—an inside job by someone with access to the DNC’s system."

The Nation's article is based on 'detailed interviews' with 'forensic experts' and 'intelligence analysts' who have 'examined the documents and drawn conclusions from them'. You can read the full article on The Nation website, but a few key quotes are highlighted below:

"It was an inside job by someone
with access to the DNC's system."

"• There was no hack of the Democratic National Committee’s system on July 5 last year - not by the Russians, not by anyone else. Hard science now demonstrates it was a leak - a download executed locally with a memory key or a similarly portable data-storage device. In short, it was an inside job by someone with access to the DNC’s system.

• Forensic investigations of documents made public two weeks prior to the July 5 leak by the person or entity known as Guccifer 2.0 show that they were fraudulent: Before Guccifer posted them they were adulterated by cutting and pasting them into a blank template that had Russian as its default language. Guccifer took responsibility on June 15 for an intrusion the DNC reported on June 14 and professed to be a WikiLeaks source - claims essential to the official narrative implicating Russia in what was soon cast as an extensive hacking operation. To put the point simply, forensic science now devastates this narrative."

So to summarize:

* The Guccifer 2.0 DNC files weren't hacked. They were copied by a DNC insider.
* The Guccifer 2.0 files were fraudulently cut and pasted into a Russian blank template, obviously to falsely implicate Russia.

These conclusions have been known for some time, but it is significant that left-leaning news outlets are finally starting to acknowledge this.

It's also worth noting the certainty of the forensic work which arrived at these conclusions:

"Unanimously, however, all the analysts and forensics investigators interviewed for this column say Forensicator’s advanced expertise, evident in the work he has done, is unassailable. They hold a similarly high opinion of Adam Carter’s work."

The forensic work is unassailable. This isn't the opinion of one person. This is the unanimous opinion of numerous analysts and forensic investigators. "Unassailable".

The Nation then raises another valid point. Namely, the silence of the relevant authorities regarding these revelations:

"Under no circumstance can it be acceptable that the relevant authorities - the National Security Agency, the Justice Department (via the Federal Bureau of Investigation), and the Central Intelligence Agency - leave these new findings without reply. ... Silence now, should it ensue, cannot be written down as an admission of duplicity, but it will come very close to one."

That last line is perhaps the most significant. "Silence now, should it ensue, cannot be written down as an admission of duplicity, but it will come very close to one."

The 'Russian hacking' narrative was one big hoax created by the DNC, and pushed by the corrupt intelligence heads. That has been known for months to anyone capable of investing even just a couple of hours research. Only weak-minded indoctrinated sheep, incapable of objective thought, would be fooled for this long. The Russia investigation is a massive waste of tax payers money.

The Nation agrees:

"By any balanced reckoning, the official case purporting to assign a systematic hacking effort to Russia ... is shabby to the point taxpayers should ask for their money back."

That last line sums it up perfectly. Taxpayers should ask for their money back. All those who created and participated in this disinformation campaign should be held accountable.

Finally, it's worth reiterating again the damaging effect the DNC's lie has had on international relations:

"The president’s ability to conduct foreign policy, notably but not only with regard to Russia, is now crippled."

The DNC's deception, designed to distract from their corruption which was exposed, has compromised America. The Nation have called it spot on. As a result of the DNC's deception, and the disinformation campaign led by John Brennan and other seditious Deep State operatives against the American people, relations with Russia have deteriorated to worrying levels.

This damaging effect has had real life consequences. President Trump negotiated a Syrian ceasefire with Putin in one meeting. If not for the anti-Russia misinformation campaign, President Trump could well have negotiated a ceasefire much sooner. It would seem almost certain therefore that Syrian lives have been lost as a result of the anti-Russia misinformation campaign which was used to manipulate the gullible left into an anti-Russia frenzy.

The DNC and Crowdstrike by creating this lie, as well as the seditious intelligence chiefs and corrupt media who helped push this deception, have blood on their hands.
