(58,785 posts)Clinton campaign vote data files. Despicable. When caught and reasonably punished, Sanders filed one of the phony lawsuits he used in 2015-2016 for the press to report, then later quietly dropped it for the press not to report, as he did all of them. This may have been the first of them. ??
This hacking and theft was done by Sanders' own IT employees, and I'd never heard that Russia had anything to do with it. Googling now only finds mention of Russia's support for Sanders to sabotage the Democrat campaigns.
Plus, none of the fact-check sites have updated their conclusions of Sanders campaign chicanery with new information about Russian involvement. Not known is whether famous micromanager Sanders ordered the hacking and theft; his employees said they committed this crime all on their own initiative.
So. Please show where you got this information, and, true or false, I will post it here as an example of the stuff being targeted to Sanders' loyalists.
And here's for you right now:
