No, I'm just going by what the FBI has admitted, being that they never conducted an independent investigation of the DNC server/cloud based imaging, nor did they review a final report from Crowdstrike.
It's amusing how liberals who support abolishing ICE and now Police are so trusting of the FBI.
You're purposely distorting the truth.
"Source close to the investigation says FBI didn't need the DNC servers because it already had the forensic data from upstream collection."
The bureau made āmultiple requests at different levels,ā according to Comey, but ultimately struck an agreement with the DNC that a āhighly respected private companyā
would get access and share what it found with investigators.
The DNC and the bureau have been quibbling in public reports over whether the request was made.

Crowdstrike CEO Has NO Direct Evidence Russia Stole/Exfiltrated DNC Emails
"Interesting admission in Crowdstrike CEO Shaun Henryās testimony. Henry is asked when āthe Russiansā exfiltrated the data from DNC. Henry: āWe did not have concrete evidence that the data was exfiltrated from the DNC, but we have indicators that it was exfiltrated.ā
More from Crowdstrikeās Shaun Henry: āThere are times when we can see data exfiltrated, and we can say conclusively. But in this case it appears it was set up to be exfiltrated, but we just donāt have the evidence that says it actually left.ā
This takes me back to the qualified, ambiguous Mueller language I highlighted in my @RCInvestigates report āCrowdstrikeout.ā The attribution of DNC hacking to Russia is tentative & appears at least partly based on inference, not hard evidence.
Recall that the Mueller report, in recounting the alleged Russian theft of emails, added the qualifier that the GRU āofficers *appear* to have stolen thousands of emails and attachments.ā Perhaps they werenāt sure, because Crowdstrike wasnāt either.
Henry: āSir, I was just trying to be factually accurate, that we didnāt see the data leave, but we believe it left, based on what we saw.ā
Thereās a quote from Assange ā maybe someone can find it, I canāt rn ā saying that itās possible that many different actors, including state actors, got inside the DNC system, but that doesnāt mean they actually stole (aka exfiltrated) the emails Wikileaks later released.
To be clear, Crowdstrike says it believes Russians hacked into DNC. But it admits to not having direct evidence that Russians actually exfiltrated the emails from DNC. This would track w/ what Assange has said: Russia may have hacked DNC, but they didnāt provide stolen emails."
I want to stress what a pretty big revelation this is. Crowdstrike, the firm behind the accusation that Russia hacked & stole DNC emails, admitted to Congress that it has no direct evidence Russia actually stole/exfiltrated the emails. More from Crowdstrike president Shaun Henry:
