A hacker has recently released a slew of documents stolen from the Democratic National Committee. One of which included a plan to form an attack on Donald Trump. The DNC did say that their system was breached and that the workers were working for the Russian Government.
The hacker posted a lot of additional information on their own website. A senior DNC official said,
“Our experts are confident in their assessment that the Russian government hackers were the actors responsible for the breach detected in April, and we believe that today’s release and the claims around it may be a part of a disinformation campaign by the Russians. We’ve deployed the recommended technology so that today our systems are secure thanks to a swift response to that attack and we will continue to monitor our systems closely.”
One of the leaks showed a attack on Trump. They called him a soulless, divisive, bad businessman with dangerous policies and a long history of misogyny. Trump responded to the leak saying,
“This is all information that has been out there for many years. Much of it is false and/or entirely inaccurate. We believe it was the DNC that did the ‘hacking’ as a way to distract from the many issues facing their deeply flawed candidate and failed party leader. Too bad the DNC doesn’t hack Crooked Hillary’s 33,000 missing emails.”
