As Democrats' convention nears, hacked DNC emails are posted online By Tom Hamburger and Karen Tumulty
The Washington Post
As Hillary Clinton prepares to accept her party's nomination for president, the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks has released nearly 20,000 hacked emails that offer an embarrassing look inside the workings of the Democratic Party as it prepares for its convention in Philadelphia.
Some of the emails from the Democratic National Committee include discussions about how to undermine Clinton's chief rival for the presidential nomination, Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders; details of perks provided to party donors attending the convention; and email exchanges among party officials, journalists and others.
...
The introduction continues, "The leaks come from the accounts of seven key figures in the DNC," which include "Communications Director Luis Miranda (10770 emails), National Finance Director Jordon Kaplan (3797 emails), Finance Chief of Staff Scott Comer ..." and others. The newly released emails cover the period from January 2015 through May 25, 2016.
Friday's document dump follows a report last month by The Washington Post that Russian government hackers had penetrated the computer network of the Democratic National Committee, gaining access to an entire database of opposition research, among other material. At the time, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said the breach was a "serious incident" and a private contractor hired to sweep the organization's network had "moved as quickly as possible to kick out the intruders and secure our network."
Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said Saturday that the emails show "what many of us have known for some time, that there were certainly people at the DNC who were actively helping the Clinton effort and trying to hurt Bernie Sanders' campaign."
I think I read he is an atheist. This could make several points difference with my peeps. My Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a Jew and an atheist.

DNC and Clinton campaign officials did not respond to requests for comment Friday as reporters and unnerved campaign staff tried to assess the damage caused by the release, which comes just as the party holds a nominating convention in Philadelphia designed to project unity after a bitter primary season. Some of the emails could open some old wounds and impede that process. The hashtag #DNCLeak was being used Saturday morning to discuss the documents on social media.
One email written May 5 to Miranda from another party official suggests that the party could help Clinton by raising questions about Sanders' faith. The email seems to indicate a clear preference among DNC officials for a Clinton primary win.
