The Russians did it theme started right away… on July 25! as soon as Jake Tapper was found in bed with the DNC!

JULY 25, 2016
FBI to Probe Alleged Hack of Democratic National Convention Emails

“In an interview with Tapper on July 24 Mook stated, “Experts are telling us that Russian state actors broke into the DNC, stole these e-mails. And other experts are now saying that the Russians are releasing these e-mails for the purpose of actually helping Donald Trump. I don’t think it’s coincidental that these emails were released on the eve of our convention here, and I think that’s disturbing.””
