But Putin Said The Russians Didn’t Do It

Government knows DNC hacker was Russian intel officer: report

Yes, they figured out Guccifer 2.0 was with Russian intelligence:

The Daily Beast reports that U.S. investigators identified the hacker as a Moscow-based Russian intelligence operative after the hacker failed to activate a virtual private networking (VPN) service meant to obscure the operative’s location before logging on.

The result was the operative’s Moscow IP address being caught in the logs of a U.S. social media company, allowing U.S. investigators to track the individual.

Guccifer 2.0 also screwed up when they discovered his password was “Password1234.”

This One Weird Trick Can Make Trump Even Richer!

This is speculation with no basis in fact or reality (which is so refreshing!), but I have a theory as to Donald Trump’s end game:

Piss off the nuclear powers enough that they nuke his properties world wide. Then Trump can collect on the insurance and cash in on their inflated prices! It’s Darryl Issa on steroids!

Laura Ingraham Was Slow on Bending Her Elbow

If you’ve seen pictures of Laura Ingraham apparently giving a Nazi Salute, you may wonder if it’s legit. Photoshop? Catching a wave at the right moment?

Fortunately, someone caught the whole thing.

At what point do you think she thought, “Oh, Crap. Gotta turn this into a wave?”

A Trump Slogan the GOP Will Love

The Boston Globe put out a story of how disorganized the Trump Campaign is.

In the middle of a workday this week, Trump’s state headquarters was locked, windows covered in paper, and displayed a note for visitors to call a phone number for access. By the door, there were about a half-dozen large blank posters, with this message clothes-pinned to the boards: “For the Donald Trump campaign. He’s embarrassing, but he’s ours.”

Trump Needs Another Civics Lesson

Donald Trump met with GOP members of Congress today. There were some moments:

Another Republican in the meeting Rep. Mark Sanford (R-SC) told TPM that Trump was asked pointedly if he would defend Article I of the Constitution.

“Not only will I stand up for Article One,” Trump enthusiastically stated,
according to Sanford. “I’ll stand up for Article Two, Article 12, you name it of the Constitution.”

Sanford said Trump’s lack of knowledge about how many articles exist, gave him “a little pause.” (The Constitution has seven articles and 27 amendments.)

Maybe Trump could hire two Corinthians to teach him basic civics.
