he wants donald trump to get his own people to gather a new intelligence report on this alleged russian hack. you have been one of the guys in the field gathering this information. is the intelligence that donald trump will be working off of different from whether president obama is looking at? it is going to be the same stuff. but what giuliani misses, this isn t intelligence. this isn t assessments. this isn t people trying to get into putin s mind. this is forensics. it is dna. and this is what they are all missing and it is every single intelligence agency in the united states government that this is just a fact. and the fbi director wasn t exactly friendly to hillary clinton in the elections. opening the investigation in her e-mails. so this is not completely politicized. the answer trump should give is let me see the evidence.
attack. do you believe russia is behind the hack? yeah. i that makes by far the most amount of sense. however i have questions that as a member of congress, i have asked entitled to get answers that unfortunately the report is still leaving open. so, you know, we have a huge threat that goes way beyond hacking. the dccc. the dnc. john podesta. we want information as it relates to but we have can we just get one more answer. do you think these sanctions should stand that obama put in place or reverse it? if he could use it, leverage it as part of a bigger plan that we re moving in the right direction and rea i lining things around the map back to the way they are supposed to be then yes he should and make it
ongoing and serious one for the country, where the president has not responded at all. he s been completely feckless in dealing with russia on a variety of fronts and not the least of which on the cyberside to. wait till after the election and use everyone talks about the hack. some of this wasn t even a hack. it was a basic a phishing exedition where one of the dnc officials gave a password. that is not a hack. that is just criminal activity that russia or maybe somebody else took advantage of. this this is clearly political and not one that i think is going to go down as a bright
top members of cottangress. and the top members are congress are confident it is russia, why is the president elect so reluctant to admit it? first off, who did the actual hacking? or the case i mentioned before it wasn t a hack. it was voluntarily a password is given. it is still a hack. they use the password. it is still criminal as you pointed out. no no, it is clearly criminal activity. but as most people who are skilled in sooub security know the state actors aren t the one doing the hacking. there are lots of individuals doing that and then say sell the information. and could the republican according to this is directed from the very top levels of the russian government. that is not just from president obama. you can talk to john mccain at about that too. i m unkbinsed at that point. but the bottom line is that the
at the so-called flash crash. now, what happened there talking to the point about reliance on computers, a bunch of different extremely sophisticated software algorithms, each competing with one another for a little tiny advantage began operating in concert, sort of a chain reaction of bad choices that the computers were making far faster than human beings could keep up. and what you saw was 1,000 point drop in about 36 minutes. now, we ve recovered from that we understand why that happened. and there may have been some human involvement, but it wasn t a hack so much as a particular trader who was developing algorithms to spoof the system and try to gain just a little bit of money. so the difference between a hack, a breach a big and enormous like breakthrough and a little spoof a little scam that s what we saw today. the truth is somewhere perhaps in the middle of those things. if there is any human involvement. patrick, i think everything that happened today is a
