Senate investigators find no evidence China hacked Clinton server

Washington (CNN)A long-running Republican-led investigation into the handling of classified information on Hillary Clinton's private email server did not find any evidence that China had successfully hacked the former secretary of state, confirming the findings of the FBI, according to a memo released by two senior senators this week.

The findings, from Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, the former chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, respectively, should help put to rest allegations that resurfaced after a report in a conservative news outlet last year that was later perpetuated online by President Donald Trump.

"Neither the committees nor the FBI were able to confirm whether an intrusion into the server occurred," Grassley and Johnson said in a news release Wednesday.

Concerns of an intrusion by China into the server were first raised by two officials from the Intelligence Community Inspector General's Office, which helped initiate the original review of Clinton's email practices as secretary of state that was later referred to the FBI, according to the memo. Both officials were interviewed by the Senate investigators as part of their probe.

One of the officials told Senate investigators that Peter Strzok, a senior FBI official on the Clinton investigation who was fired last year after the release of text messages he'd sent that were critical of Trump, was "aloof and dismissive" when presented with information about the potential Chinese hack.

The other Intelligence Community Inspector General's Office official told investigators that FBI employees were "poker faced" when shown the information, which concerned the appearance of a Gmail address that had a similar name to a Chinese trucking company in the metadata of a tranche of Clinton emails.

A letter in April to Grassley and Johnson from the inspectors general for the intelligence community and the Justice Department that's included in the memo says a computer specialist who administered one of the private email systems told the FBI that he had created the Gmail account to transfer archived emails between Clinton servers.

The FBI had been aware of the Gmail account in question before the two intelligence community inspector general officials expressed their concerns over it in the meeting with Strzok, the memo shows.

After its own investigation, the FBI concluded in 2016 that there was no "direct evidence" that the server had been successfully hacked, though former FBI Director James Comey conceded that "given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely to see such direct evidence."

Separately, the officials from the Intelligence Community Inspector General's Office also told Senate investigators that they had witnessed efforts by senior State Department officials to try to avoid labeling certain emails as classified as part of the review.

The Senate investigation into the Clinton server is continuing and has shifted its focus toward a classified appendix of a report from the Department of Justice Inspector General's Office scrutinizing the FBI's investigation that was released last year, according to the memo. Investigators are interested in the decision by the FBI to not seek access to "certain highly classified information potentially relevant to the investigation" and have written to the Justice Department with questions, they said in the memo.

Using the democrats rationale from the Mueller findings....  “just because the investigation couldn’t confirm wether an intrusion into the server occurred”, they didn’t explicitly says it didn’t happen...

Donald also has people chasing their tail over Biden. It’s pretty funny 

Whats even more funny is you chasing after your own tail over Trump. Trump occupies your mind 24/7. You’re as bad as Slinger was, maybe worse. :lol:

Did anyone outside of the DNC's own people ever get a look at the servers in question? Really what evidence has been looked at?

According to the video that Anler posted the servers were not examined by anybody other than the firm hired by the DNC.

“CrowdStrike stands fully by its analysis and findings identifying two separate Russian intelligence-affiliated adversaries present in the DNC network in May 2016,”

U.S. intelligence officials cannot make definitive conclusions about the hacking of the Democratic National Committee computer servers because they did not analyze those servers themselves. Instead, they relied on the forensics of CrowdStrike, a private contractor for the DNC that was not a neutral party, much as “Russian dossier” compiler Christopher Steele, also a DNC contractor, was not a neutral party. This puts two Democrat-hired contractors squarely behind underlying allegations in the affair – a key circumstance that Mueller ignores.

Further, the government allowed CrowdStrike and the Democratic Party's legal counsel to submit redacted records, meaning CrowdStrike and not the government decided what could be revealed or not regarding evidence of hacking.

CrowdStrike is a cybersecurity firm with strong ties to the Democratic Party. After the DNC server was hacked in early 2016, Perkins Coie, a politically connected law firm, hired CrowdStrike on behalf of the DNC to find out who was behind the intrusion. (Perkins Coie is the same law firm that hired Fusion GPS on behalf of the DNC and Hillary Clinton campaign to dig up Russia-related dirt on Team Trump before the election.)

That isn’t the extent of CrowdStrike’s dubious political ties. Its co-founder, Moscow-born Dmitri Alperovitch, is associated with the Clinton Foundation; in 2015, CrowdStrike received $100 million in funding from Google whose chairman, Eric Schmidt, was a generous supporter of Hillary Clinton. CrowdStrike’s president is Shawn Henry, who headed up the FBI’s cybercrimes division during the Obama Administration when Robert Mueller was director.

 

Among the officials working with CrowdStrike on the exercise was John Carlin, Mueller’s former chief of staff and then head of the Justice Department’s national security division. Carlin facilitated the October 2016 FISA warrant for Trump campaign aide Carter Page; he also received regular briefings from then-deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe on both the Clinton email investigation and the Trump-Russia collusion probe. (Michael Atkinson, the intelligence community’s inspector general at the center of the so-called whistleblower controversy, worked directly for Carlin in 2016 and 2017.)

Probably just a coincidence, right?

You still believe the bullshit that these swamp rats put out there? The same people that participated in the Trump/Russia frame job.

 

also I find it hilarious that you ignore the fact that the server in her house is illegal.

The US has an agreement with Ukraine to assist in criminal prosecutions 

Understood but Dems are saying there is no ongoing investigation into Biden or his Son so Trump shouldn't be bringing it up which he didn't anyhow.
