Just for you, COMRADE. Enjoy:

Was John Podesta Snared in
a Kremlin Power Struggle?



Rep. Louis Gohmert´s calls for a new investigation on the Russian ties of John Podesta may just shed light on why the former Hillary Clinton campaign chairman´s emails were hacked at all. Far from being an effort to take down Clinton, it looks as though Podesta may have been a pawn in a Kremlin power struggle. As there´s little political hay to be made from that, it´s not the most convenient "narrative" for Podesta. To hear Podesta and the rest of the Democrats tell it, Russians hacked the U.S. election and released his emails via Wikileaks because they were in cahoots with then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. The Russians' aim, they claimed, was to sow doubt, embarass Podesta and swing the election to a Trump victory. Trump won all right, but hardly because of the doings of the cyberwar. In fact, a Russian government source has said that if they had wanted to follow such a strategy, they wouldn't have chosen an inside-baseball, political junkie such as Podesta for an email release. They would have gone after Hillary. Easy to do, given that she had all of her emails on an illegal, less-secure-than-Gmail private server in some guy's bathroom.
