Were suing the Trump campaign and Russia.
snip//
"Today, the DNC is filing a civil lawsuit alleging that Russia perpetrated a brazen attack on American democracy during the 2016 election, and found a willing partner in the Trump campaign.
Heres why: a major part of Russias attack on American democracy was the cyberattack on the DNC and theft of the DNCs proprietary information. This stolen information was then released to the public by Russian agents and
WikiLeaks to damage the Democratic Party and influence the 2016 election.
Were taking this action because we believe no one is above the law, and we must pursue every avenue of justice against those who engaged in this illegal activity against the DNC and our democracy. We must also prevent future attacks on our democracy, and thats exactly what were doing today."

Now, putting together a lawsuit like this, with all the proper documentation, has taken some time. Thats why were filing it today, both to seek justice and to deter further attacks on our democracy.
