What Do The Russians Know And When Did They Know It?

I wonder what the Russians know?

Reliable intelligence sources in the West have indicated that warnings had been received that the Russian Government could in the near future release the text of email messages intercepted from U.S. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s private e-mail server from the time she was U.S. Secretary of State. The release would, the messaging indicated, prove that Secretary Clinton had, in fact, laid open U.S. secrets to foreign interception by putting highly-classified Government reports onto a private server in violation of U.S. law, and that, as suspected, the server had been targeted and hacked by foreign intelligence services.

The Russians invented the word "devious." What do they know about Hillary Clinton and her dealings as SecState? It's gotta be horrendous.

And with this (supposed) knowledge, why are they playing their hand in this fashion? I imagine that the Clinton Foundation plays an major role w/r/t o her tenure (follow the money, always the money) and that somehow Russian interests are put in jeopardy if Clinton wins the Presidency.

Or perhaps Russian interests were already compromised because of her actions as SecState? Maybe Putin just hates sloppy thighs and thick ankles?

The suspense is delicious.

Moscow’s discreet messaging about a possible leak of the traffic, in time to impact the U.S. elections, was designed to pressure faster U.S. legal action on the matter, but was largely due to Russian concerns about possible U.S. strategic policy in the event of a Hillary Clinton presidency.

The Rooskies don't trust her either.
