It's certainly a different world we live in. To my knowledge, the DNC never did allow the FBI access to their "hacked servers", instead the FBI had to rely on data provided by Crowdstrike (a DNC contractor). Did the DNC have something to hide? Probably never know.

I firmly believe yes, they were hiding things that they didn't want the general public to see.

Only if they look at far left sites too. Other countries spend tons of money trying to influence our elections and politics. Just look at all of Hillary's foreign donors. There is a huge difference in trying to influence vs "hacking an election". Hacking an election IMHO is stuff like electronic vote tampering. There has been nothing evidence of that,at least not in the republicans favor. Even if it comes out the russians hacked the dnc, it doesn't change the fact that the stuff they posted was real. The dnc colluded with members of the press to help hillary and hurt bernie. (Among other things)

And what if foreign operatives also hacked the RNC (and RNC denies it to save face) or hacked private accounts of RNC members, Trump staff, etc and they keep close hold potential blackmailing information for use later? As you said, the information leaked about HRC and DNC are real and was leaked but the real issue is the active campaign of foreign assets hacking political servers and members of political parties. That's the national security threat that should be focus of any investigation. Just look at recent Wikileaks CIA leaks; the timing wasn't coincidence. Our democracy is at stake if the enemy can infiltrate and manipulate our political leaders regardless of party affiliation. I'm SO over this election and more concerned about securing future elections.

Oh they probably did hack the rnc. We definitely do need to get our cyber house in order here.

I may have to watch the full Comey hearing. There is a report today that Comey confirmed Russian intelligence penetrated GOP systems and stole information. If he indeed made that revelation in the hearing, that opens a whole series of other questions and concerns the American people should have.
