Russians Hacked Ukrainian Gas Company at Center of Impeachment

... and the Russian intel agencies digging dirt on US politicians surprises you, why????

They have been doing this for 70+ years. You are old enough to remember 70 years ago.

I dont believe a single word that comes out of that rag.

This could be big news.

With President Trump facing an impeachment trial over his efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and his son Hunter Biden, Russian military hackers have been boring into the Ukrainian gas company at the center of the affair, according to security experts.

The hacking attempts against Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company on whose board Hunter Biden served, began in early November, as talk of the Bidens, Ukraine and impeachment was dominating the news in the United States.

It is not yet clear what the hackers found, or precisely what they were searching for. But the experts say the timing and scale of the attacks suggest that the Russians could be searching for potentially embarrassing material on the Bidens — the same kind of information that Mr. Trump wanted from Ukraine when he pressed for an investigation of the Bidens and Burisma, setting off a chain of events that led to his impeachment.

The Russian tactics are strikingly similar to what American intelligence agencies say was Russia’s hacking of emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman and the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 presidential campaign. In that case, once they had the emails, the Russians used trolls to spread and spin the material, and built an echo chamber to widen its effect.

Burisma Holdings 'successfully' hacked by Russian military

Burisma holdings the Ukrainian gas company at the center of a scandal that resulted in President Trump’s impeachment by the House of Representatives, was successfully hacked in November by Russian military agents, a U.S. cybersecurity company claimed Monday.

Maybe Trump just got his "get out of jail for free" card. Who knows?

:putinthis:

OP is one of the low level grunts trying to convince people that the story is real.

And, like all Orange Man Bad! libtards, doing a damn poor job of it.

They just had the story on fox news. No one there in the discussion was denying that the story wasn't true.

Smells like a cover story to cast doubt on future revelations.

Who's the fbi framing this time?

This could be big news.

I'll bet that all 17 intelligence agencies will agree!

(And by 17 intelligence agencies, of course I mean.... DEEP STATE)
