Rosenstein has finally stepped to the podium and is rapidly reading off details about the indictments. Notably, one of the officials named in the indictments is charged not only with hacking of the DNC and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee but also with infiltrating state election boards and companies that supply software used to verify voter registration. They targeted officials involved with administering elections and sent “spear-fishing” emails to these officials.
The Russian intelligence officials are also charged with using a third-party (which is not named in the indictment but sounds a lot like Wikileaks) to distribute the information (see reference below).
According to Rosenstein, the Russian agents created fictitious online personas during their operation, including the Guccifer 2.0 persona, which was previously believed to be a Romanian hacker.
Here are the headlines:
*ROSENSTEIN SAYS ONE RUSSIA GROUP STOLE INFO, OTHER SPREAD IT
*ROSENSTEIN SAYS NO ALLEGATIONS HACKING AFFECTED ELECTION RESULT
*ROSENSTEIN SAYS HE BRIEFED TRUMP EARLIER THIS WEEK
Per the indictment, there is no indication that any American was a knowing participant in this activity, and no indication that these efforts altered the vote count in any way.
