Traffic where they can analyze. >> youre hitting two key points. these hacks against dnc staff worked in part because the russians were able to impersonate seemingly trustworthy do nmains like mic o microsoft. they say the microsoft folks went off them sending notes to the hacker. thats a type of progress. what do you do when you get judgments against people and their all over the world? theyre not here in america to catch. >> thats part of the challenge with dealing with this threat. for those ...

Play into all this? because they deny they got information from russia in the first place. >> he could prove. wikileaks turned out to be the russian cutout. thats a term of art for the middle man who takes on the information and passes it on and gives it it an air of legitim y legitimacy. let me touch on this hacker for a minute. what he has is he has the electronic genetic code, so to speak of the malware suite that they stole and used to create the software that was used to hack the dnc. he ca...

Had the hacker coordinating and talking to them, who will probably tell a different story than julian assange, does that get us close to a conclusion in the russiagate affair? >> counter intelligence resolves itself with a conviction and a trial. it seeks to both identify and neutralize a threat. if weve identified someone involved and taken them off the market, off the stage, that will be a win. to answer your question, im not sure that well see something publicly mere will resolve itself. that...

With a right wing blogger. >> i have to theorize. assange has a great affinity for the russians and for putin himself. and theres a report that said assange did not want to take anti-russian leaks and put them out on wikileaks and wikileaks is quite upset about that. so this is something where assange was trying to curry favor with the russians. else incredibly egotistical. so this could be something to get him back in the limelight. he is certainly worried. i think he is just grasping at releva...

Information about this strange new piece of news that i could. but i cant. because the one thing i can confirm is that the mueller investigation is not very leaky. at least not to us. or to anybody that we know, or work with. we squeeze, we cajole, we needle, we really cant get anything out of them at all, even when a competing news organization has put out a very provocative report. so we will wait to find out more.
