It's outrageous........ now....

Donald Trump’s presidential campaign said on Saturday that it has been the victim of a foreign hack, after the campaign received questions from news organizations about a lengthy vetting document on vice-presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) sent to the outlets.

“These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process,” Steven Cheung, a campaign spokesman, said in a statement.

Cheung pointed to a report released Friday by Microsoft in which the company said it had discovered evidence that Iranian hackers had tried to break into the email account of a “high-ranking official” on a U.S. presidential campaign in June.\

"Russia, if you're listening. . . ."

And we know that Russia was listening.

Why are you speaking in third person? YOU ORDERED IT VLAD!

Why would you be happy about this? 🤔🤔🤨🤨

[–] jriley555 (8530) 6 months ago

Why were you happy about it in 2016 ? Trumpy sure was, wasn't he ? Or were you still in diapers way back 8 years ago ?

I'm not happy about it, but you can certainly appreciate the delicious irony of Trumpy complaining about EXACTLY what he celebrated & EXPLICITLY ENCOURAGED being used against his opponent back then.

Why do I have to spell all this out - are you thick ? No, hacking isn't cool - anywhere , anytime - but in both cases staffers made stupid mistakes falling for phishing attacks. In the corporate world, staff are continually trained to recognize & avoid these pitfalls.

What incident are you referring to from 2016? Are you referring to Hillary’s emails?

[–] B1cKsurN (17792) 6 months ago

If you are referring to the 100k of facebook ads... that wasn't the Russian government lol. Russia was a hoax, remember when Robert Mueller told everyone?

[–] jriley555 (8530) 6 months ago

The hacks of the DNC emails, run by the GRU, pushed to Wikileaks and strategically leaked by them (Trumpy loves Wikileaks, he said so). Very likely the exact sort of thing the Iranians ran on Trumpy's staff.

None of this is even slightly new information.

[–] tvfan (14460) 6 months ago

Those emails were leaked to Wikileaks by Seth Rich and he was murdered for it.

The DNC used Crowdstrike to investigate the server hack and they attributed the leaks to Russian Intelligence to fuel the Russian collusion narrative.

The DNC used Crowdstrike to fabricate a Russian intelligence connection to undermine Trump.

Oh, and the “Iranian hack” was actually orchestrated by the CIA.

[–] jriley555 (8530) 6 months ago

Wow, you've got all the 'inside information'. I'm impressed.

Come to think of it, why WOULD the Russkis want to hack Clinton. What do they know about such things, anyway ? What would they possibly have gained by putting a willing stooge like Trump into the hot seat ? It makes 'no sense'.

:)

Mueller never told anybody that Russia was a hoax, and you know this, you liar.

[–] Druff (1841) 6 months ago

What Robert Mueller "told everyone" via his report was that he found no evidence that Trump himself personally collaborated directly with Russia.

He never said there was no Russian misinformation campaign on Facebook/social media, because it's a widely known fact that it happened.

The emails were real. It was not misinformation. Hillary really is that shit of a person.

[–] Druff (1841) 6 months ago

That has nothing to do with the social media misinfo campaign I referred to.

EDIT after your next post which was not worth replying to:

Please don't waste my time by posting @me when you're drunk or high or whatever the fuck your deal is right now.

[–] Corbell (10999) 6 months ago

lol. A pebble thrown into the oncoming tide. Plop, and gone, not a ripple.

[–] [deleted] 6 months ago

you mean when it came out that democrats were engaging in "pizzas" and so they had to kill seth rich?

[–] robocat893 (16223) 6 months ago

I'm happy about this. Trump meet karma. Remember when Trump asked Russia to hack the Democratic party and Hillary's emails? I do. Life's a bitch! 😁

Well you're TDS afflicted mooch. Anything that makes more of my taxes end up in your pocket, you'll support.

None of what you said happened. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[–] robocat893 (16223) 6 months ago

I don't understand why you have such a huge problem with me collecting a pension I've earned. Is every person who collects a pension a mooch? I'm sorry but I've already have enough of your stupidity today so go fuck yourself.

[–] VladPutin (1582) 6 months ago

Thank bicksurn, for me, for his 24 years of service. Even though LittleCraigy "urged him not to go."

[–] CraigC (8720) 6 months ago

So you guys are fine with election interference as long as your side benefits, right? Got it.

Of course we already knew that and it's why you must be destroyed. Un-American doesn't even begin to describe your cult.

[–] jriley555 (8530) 6 months ago

Let me dumb this down for you - the issue isn't what I or you or Fred over there is 'happy' about, it is that Trumpy is complaining about tactics used against him in the present that he CELEBRATED & ENCOURAGED when used against his opponents in 2016.

These are criminals - did those crimes bother you then ? Most of you simply deny the obvious, like your buddy who responded below.

I am not condoning hackers - simply pointing out and enjoying the rank hypocrisy of Trump and people like you, who scurry around making excuses for his abuses.

[–] blue1981 (8165) 6 months ago

Russian interference in 2016 never happened. Get over it.

Who cares like anyone believes the FBI when they're as corrupt as it gets.

[–] jriley555 (8530) 6 months ago

The FBI is run by the guy Trump appointed, freak.
