Quote:The Russians didn’t do it. The Chinese did, according to well-placed FBI sources.
And while Democratic lawmakers and the mainstream media prop up Russia as America’s boogeyman, it was the ironically Chinese who acquired Hillary’s treasure trove of classified and top secret intelligence from her home-brewed private server.
And a public revelation of that magnitude — publicizing that a communist world power intercepted Hillary’s sensitive and top secret emails — would have derailed Hillary Clinton’s presidential hopes. Overnight. But it didn’t simply because it was concealed.
FBI bosses knew of the breach yet did nothing to investigate, seemingly trying to run out the clock on the alarming revelations to protect Hillary during her heated presidential campaign with Trump. So instead of investigating the hacking of Clinton’s server, FBI bosses sat quietly.

Once again, this story could be just a made up fish tale. Or it could be true. Up to you on what you believe....
China, and their lap puppy North Korea have been at the heart of attacks against the security of banking and financial information and research and innovation, so ruling them out as a candidate for political hacking is tough to do. There could be legs to this hypothetically especially as China continues to try to undermine the WRC status of the dollar, a real and stated threat this board doesn't always take seriously enough.
Lord Stanley mentioned Experian (which is actually a secure credit info sight) but Chinese hackers were suspects in what happened to Equifax (which was their own danged fault for having not updated their security system or servers in years).
One of our guys was able to glean info on what the War College in Beijing had as a plan for attacking the West. It begins with the destabilization of the dollar, and the driving of a wedge between the FEC and ECB. Hmm?
It also included the over production of missile subs which could be based out of Cuba and Venezuela to cover the Gulf, Pacific Coast and Atlantic with nukes that could then reach most of the continental U.S.. Their plan at the time was to build enough of them that there were 6 for each U.S. attack sub. One of our Subs supposedly can track and hit 5 subs simultaneously.
They saw the need in this because they didn't have a credible ICBM capability. Two years ago they were able to complete a missile launch capable of reaching the outer limit of the satellite orbits where our defense satellites operate. They smile and smile and do business at a massive deficit to the US because it strengthens them and plays into their destabilization plan.
We have nothing to fear until they reach technological parity at which point we become vulnerable. The timeline on that if we keep playing their game instead of ours is another 10 to 15 years.
If we have anything in common with Russia it's that they do business with them as well (oil & gas among other things), but they don't trust them either.
So the issues with Brexit, the debt with Italy, the concerns over the Russian pipeline into Germany, and now the discontent among the ignorant media people here over the meeting with Putin are all failing to meet the scrutiny given the intel reports out of China.
The president in this case is trying to repair relations with Russia in preparation for meeting a not so distant threat coming out of Red China.
Japan has been given the green light to build up defenses because of Chinese incursions into the South China Sea and the Sea of Japan particularly as they relate to the Kuril Islands. China has chased our jets and Japanese aircraft in these waters which are supposed to be open. They have been probing the perimeter there and in the Himalayas. Their military construction sites internal the Chinese mainland have been rapidly growing, as has their troop level.
But meanwhile we keep chasing he Rep / Dem **** & shinola show on the local media oulets.
Nixon played the China card to keep the USSR in line. Trump may be trying to warm to Russian to play that card off against China to hold their aggression over resources in check.
