Hack of Democrats Wider than Originally Thought [View all]

“A Russian cyberattack that targeted Democratic politicians was bigger than it first appeared and breached the private email accounts of more than 100 party officials and groups,” the New York Times reports.

“The widening scope of the attack has prompted the F.B.I. to broaden its investigation, and agents have begun notifying a long list of Democratic officials that the Russians may have breached their personal accounts.”

Playbook: “There is a serious, palpable fear among Democrats right now that WikiLeaks will release a raft of new, damning emails that will help boost Donald Trump this fall.”
