DNC Sued to Prove They Were Hacked
Quote:In order to help defend themselves against Gubarev, BuzzFeed filed a lawsuit against the DNC to force them to hand over information related to the "Steele Dossier" after the DNC ignored a subpoena for proof they were hacked - including "digital remnants left by the Russian state operatives," as well as a full version of the hacking report prepared by cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike.

The DNC notably wouldn't allow FBI investigators to look at the server, instead relying on the hacking report prepared by CrowdStrike (founded by Russian expat Dimitri Alperovitch - who sits on the very Anti-Russian Atlantic Council along with Evelyn "loose lips" Farkas).

“As part of the discovery process, BuzzFeed is attempting to verify claims in the dossier that relate to the hacking of the DNC,” said BuzzFeed spokesman Matt Mittenhal in a statement. “We’re asking a federal court to force the DNC to follow the law and allow BuzzFeed to fully defend its First Amendment rights.”

In January, the DNC claimed that providing the requested information would expose the DNC's internal operations and harm the party politically.

“If these documents were disclosed, the DNC’s internal operations, as well as its ability to effectively achieve its political goals, would be harmed,” said DNC lawyers.

So, just to clarify, possibly being harmful a political party is now grounds for ignoring a subpoena.

Its a civil suit involving two other parties. I don't know that they can be compelled to provide evidence.

POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE

Buzzfeed has to have grounds to sue the DNC first. I doubt that they do. And the DNC doesn't have to comply with discovery in somebody's else's suit (non-attorney opinion not intended to constitute legal advice-consult an attorney if you find yourself in such an actual situation).
