Unless you believe that the emails were doctored, we aren't hearing 2nd hand rumors spread by word of mouth. We have actual email chains of conversations. They damn themselves with their own comments and actions taken on those comments. Also think about this, were any real explanations presented by the DNC or Hillary's campaign for what leaked in those emails? Did any of them outright call them fabrications? Was ANY real justification for the actions against Bernie presented? Did Podesta offer to put into context any of the shit he said? Were any journalists that offered to collude with the campaign really queried about their comments in the emails or offered to put everything in context?
All we kept reading and hearing was Russia, Russia Russia...deflect, deflect, deflect.
