"Whoever obtained the data apparently broke into either the top secret, highly compartmentalized computer servers of the N.S.A. or other servers around the world that the agency would have used to store the files. The code that was released dates to mid-2013, when, in the wake of Mr. Snowden’s disclosures, the agency shuttered many of its existing servers and moved code to new ones as a security measure.

By midday Tuesday Mr. Snowden himself, in a Twitter message from his exile in Moscow, declared that “circumstantial evidence and conventional wisdom indicates Russian responsibility” for publication, which he interpreted as a warning shot to the American government in case it was thinking of imposing sanctions against Russia for the cybertheft of documents from the Democratic National Committee.

“Why did they do it?” Mr. Snowden asked. “No one knows, but I suspect this is more diplomacy than intelligence, related to the escalation around the DNC hack.”

Around the same time, WikiLeaks declared that it had a full set of the files — it did not say how it obtained them — and would release them all in the future. The “Shadow Brokers” had said they would auction them off to the highest bidder.

“I think it’s Snowden-era stuff, repackaged for resale now,” said James A. Lewis, a computer expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank. “This is probably some Russian mind game, down to the bogus accent” of some of the messages sent to media organizations by the Shadow Brokers group, delivered in broken English that seemed right out of a bad spy movie.

The N.S.A. would say nothing on Tuesday about whether the coding released was real or where it came from."

Hillary and her rag will wipe this problem away.

John Tyler got enough for both of them, even in his 70s.

This is true. I may have actually seen this here, but John Tyler has living grandchildren, or at least he did a couple of years ago.

This is why I don't worry too much about Hillary's emails. Nothing of true importance should be emailed and I assume nothing is emailed. There is no such thing as a safe server. Hackers gonna hack.

Two tooth-achingly stupid things I get really fucking tired of hearing (I'll paraphrase):

1) Obamacare was a Republican idea!

2) President Clinton was impeached for getting a blow job!

You're going to have to come up with counterarguments that Baron finds satisfactory, and that help only the middle class.

Well, what was he impeached for?

I know, I know. You'll say, "Perjury and "obstruction of justice."

Perjury and obstruction of justice from ... what again?

One won't do. Need at least ten ways Republicans helped the middle class in reaction to Clinton's impeachment.
