How about a definitive link that proves the Russians hacked the DNC. Baby steps.
They used the term ''Hallmark'' instead of the word ''signature'' which I believe I heard this morning... here is 1 link I found that says something similar of what I heard this morning...but not precisely....

..... I was just listening to the news on tv and not watching, was working on something else at the time so I don't even know what channel I was on....
Signs point to Russia in DNC hack, but FBI isn't ready to blame Russia yet
And therein lies the problem. This thread is essentially charging that Trump is working with the Russians in getting information illegally when it hasn't even been established that it was Russians in the first place. Then there is you along with many on the left claiming that this is worse than Watergate. That is blatantly insane.
Those charges and claims are based on one thing and one thing only - distracting from what is already established fact - the actual content of the released emails. If this is Russia is that wrong? Of course. Should it be pursued? Yes it should. We should be investigating and trying to stop such things from happening to include national response to such acts. That, however, has absolutely nothing to do with the facts that have been brought to light. The investigations are forthcoming and when the bad actors are caught we will deal with it. That yelling and pitching a fit right now, while the bad actors are still being investigated is a sad attempt at deflection.
You are essentially trying to forgive the transgressions of the DNC by pointing to another actors crimes. Many posters here have equated it to ignoring that your spouse was cheating because it was your neighbor that found out and told you and that analogy is actually a rather good one. We should not be ignoring the DNC's actions no matter who released the information and dealing with that crime is a separate issue from dealing with the leaks themselves.
I don't mean to deny the DNC's transgressions....those that worked there that could not be neutral as their DNC'S group charter states they should be, should not be permitted to work for the DNC in official capacity again as far as I am concerned!
Why in my gut I feel this is worse than Watergate with the Russians doing this, is because at least with Watergate, it was the Republicans doing it....the opponent doing it, and yes, sneaky dirty rotten American Politicians doing it by 'playing' politics....
I can accept something like this happening, (though I oppose it for it's illegality and scumminess, if that's even a word?) because it is us, doing it to each other...maybe because the stakes are high, or due to our passion for a cause, or due to a number of other reasons.... all wrong reasons...I repeat...yes I know that..but somewhere in my modest brain, I can accept and empathize and understand that things like The Watergate break in, will happen, whether we like them or not...
This thing with the Russians, trying to influence our election is so much more bothersome to me...especially when I try to figure out the WHY? in it...at the National level....yes, fine...Russia wants Trump to win...and they are trying to do this by this leak of what was going on behind the scenes at the DNC to get Bernie or bust voters digging in their heels... this isn't for America's benefit...one has to just know this is only for Russia's benefit... so what does that mean?
Does it mean that Russians believe the USA will be in chaos with Mr. Trump as Pres, will be WEAKER under Mr. Trump? Russia becoming stronger and a dominant force...becoming the Soviet Union again with satellite countries?
It simply does not sit well with me...and I am compelled to do some research and learn more about the situation...become more informed....this is MAJOR.
As far as the Bernie voters that BOTH Trump and Russia/Putin want to get all riled up with this back stabbing by some at the DNC....be mad, stay home if you want...I could not vote for Obama because I was so upset with how the dirty imo, DNC handled themselves in the primary, favoring Obama...of course, I will admit that Obama was going to win the State I was in regardless, but it felt darn good to just not vote for him as some sort of punishment....Of course, as a liberal speaking to the Bernie supporters who have even more passion for Bernie than I probably did for Hillary in '08, there is A LOT at stake in this election...greater and bigger than the revolution you support, our very existence is at stake imo!!!
Bernie, as well as he did, with or without any conspiring at the DNC, was NOT going to win this contest...if he really came close to becoming the nominee, the the Republicans and Hillary and Trump would have gone after Bernie, with a vengeance, dropping all kinds of stink bombs on him and his past....as was done with every single Democratic and Republican Candidates running...Bernie was always treated with kid gloves....it would not have been that way, if he were leading.
And one other thing that needs to be repeated imo...do Republicans actually believe the RNC worker was following their charter to stay neutral during the primary and no conspiring against Mr.Trump, or favoritism towards others was NOT happening at the RNC? GUARANTEED, 100 times more, was being done by them, to hurt Mr.Trump's run.
Sorry for this being so long...it's meant to answer lots of different poster responses to me...not just yours.
