Kim
Dotcom: "Let Me Assure You, The DNC Hack Wasn’t Even A Hack"
19 February, 2018
Kim Dotcom has once again
chimed in on the DNC hack, following a Sunday morning tweet from President
Trump clarifying his previous comments on Russian meddling in the 2016
election.
I never said Russia did not meddle in the election, I said “it may be Russia, or China or another country or group, or it may be a 400 pound genius sitting in bed and playing with his computer.” The Russian “hoax” was that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia - it never did!
In response, Dotcom tweeted "Let me assure you, the DNC hack wasn't even a hack. It was an insider with a memory stick. I know this because I know who did it and why," adding "Special Counsel Mueller is not interested in my evidence. My lawyers wrote to him twice. He never replied. 360 pounds!" alluding of course to Trump's "400 pound genius" comment.
Let me assure you, the DNC hack wasn’t even a hack. It was an insider with a memory stick. I know this because I know who did it and why. Special Counsel Mueller is not interested in my evidence. My lawyers wrote to him twice. He never replied. 360 pounds!google.com/amp/s/amp.smh.… twitter.com/realdonaldtrum…
Dotcom's assertion is backed up by an analysis done last year by a researcher who goes by the name Forensicator, who determined that the DNC files were copied at 22.6 MB/s - a speed virtually impossible to achieve from halfway around the world, much less over a local network - yet a speed typical of file transfers to a memory stick.
The local transfer theory of
course blows the Russian hacking narrative out of the water, lending
credibility to the theory that the DNC "hack" was in fact an inside
job, potentially implicating late DNC IT staffer, Seth Rich.
John Podesta's email was
allegely successfully "hacked" (he fell victim to a phishing scam) in
March 2016, while the DNC reported suspicious activity (the suspected Seth Rich
file transfer) in late April, 2016 according to the Washington Post.
If Congress includes #SethRich case into their Russia probe I'll give written testimony with evidence that Seth Rich was @Wikileaks source.
On May 19 2017 Dotcom
tweeted "I knew Seth Rich. I was involved"

"I have consulted with my lawyers. I
accept that my full statement should be provided to the authorities and I am
prepared to do that so that there can be a full investigation. My lawyers will
speak with the authorities regarding the proper process.
If
my evidence is required to be given in the United States I would be prepared to
do so if appropriate arrangements are made. I would need a guarantee from
Special Counsel Mueller, on behalf of the United States, of safe passage from
New Zealand to the United States and back. In the coming
days we will be communicating with the appropriate authorities to make the
necessary arrangements. In the meantime, I will make no further comment."
Dotcom knew.
While one
could simply write off Dotcom's claims as an attention seeking stunt, he made
several comments and a series of tweets hinting at the
upcoming email releases prior to both the WikiLeaks dumps
as well as the publication of the hacked DNC emails to a website known as
"DCLeaks."
In a May
14, 2015 Bloomberg article entitled
"Kim Dotcom: Julian Assange Will Be Hillary Clinton's Worst Nightmare In 2016":
"I have to say it’s probably more Julian,” who threatens Hillary, Dotcom
said. “But I’m aware of some of the things that are going to be
roadblocks for her.”
Two days
later, Dotcom tweeted this:
Hillary Clinton is raising a mountain of cash for her Presidential bid. I think it might turn into ash.
Around
two months later, Kim asks a provocative question
Will hackers 0wn the U.S. presidential election and prevent Hillary Clinton? #Wikileaks
Two weeks after that, Dotcom then tweeted
"Mishandling classified info is a crime. When Hillary's emails eventually
pop up on the internet who's going to jail?"

It should thus be fairly obvious to anyone
that Dotcom was somehow involved, and therefore any evidence he claims to have,
should be taken seriously as part of Mueller's investigation. Instead, as
Dotcom tweeted, "Special Counsel Mueller is not interested in my evidence.
My lawyers wrote to him twice. He never replied."
