We know, it was right in the 37 page indictment write up. Not news. Not sure what you think it proves. They worked against Clinton, Cruz, and Rubio. The blatently stated they favored Trump but were okay with Bernie.
Lots of dots!
Not sure why you haven't connected them.
The Russians wanted to sow discord in the United States.
That's their end game.
It's like what Ho Chi Menh did during the Vietnam War.
He knew he couldn't defeat a united United States, so he worked on dividing us and it worked.
Former KGB agent Putin didn't miss that lesson.
Another way of understanding this is crossover voters that vote in the other party's primary.
They might vote for the candidate in second place in order to force a long, drawn-out primary fight that drains the other party's resources and makes uniting the party behind the eventual primary winner much more difficult.
This is essentially what the Russians attempted to do.
Hillary was expected to easily walk away with the primary and then the presidency, so they backed her only serious primary opponent.
Bernie ultimately failed to dethrone Hillary, but not before forcing her to fight tooth and nail for the primary and seriously dividing the party.
They attempted the same thing in the Republican primary by backing the underdogs.
Of course, the degree to which their limited efforts were effective is debatable.
At this point, it seems more an effort to probe our lines.
I just don't see your argument. Russians got caught doing an Information Operation to divide the U.S. I have no issues punishing them. No American is called out in that indictment. What's your issue with it? Why must we deflect about the DNC?
Because Democrats have been pushing the collusion-delusion for a year and a half.
My guy in 2016 was Gary Johnson. I have not voted Dem or GOP since Perot first ran. I am just not blinded by some sort of Trump anger and paranoia to miss what is obvious. I just want America to prosper. Pushing this Russia narrative helps Russia and hurts America. They are laughing at us as they drink their vodka. If that does not bother you, you are not a real American.

Is it really the Dems, or the DOJ. The Dems didn't initiate this investigation, Trump's own hand picked people got this all going. He fired Comey, Mueller replaced him, and it's the Dems fault. This is a republican administration, stop blaming the dems for everything. And Mueller is a life long republican .
More like mess they just exploited. The division was already there after the Obama administration became more and more far left
And the republican became more and more far right, and thus you got the mess we see in Washington today. I mean really far right, is there anything such as a moderate republican today.
#1 Soros is a American citizen.
#2 theres no evidence of your accusation of Soros bussing folks in, just more nonsense.
#3 both sides in this case-even if we accepted your nonsense....involve a American on one side, and ourold cold war enemies on the other.
Oh, I see,,,,so Soros recently became a US citizen so you want to call him an American. This despite he is on record as being against most American values and our constitutional republican form of governance.
I know you are an avowed leftist, but good luck with supporting Soros and trying to get most Americans to agree with you.
Since these indictments, Obama name is off the charts in this thread of late. Hardly heard the man named called in relations to this investigation.
You must have missed the many times Obama was pointed out in previous iterations of Russian interference, such as U.S. intelligence agencies agreeing that Russia tried to hack into our system.
The sitting U.S. President is obviously accountable for responding to any alleged foreign meddling in our election that happened for years under his watch.
