Russia Is Reportedly Set to Release Clinton's Intercepted Emails

Why would Russia release anything until the DMC have chosen Clinton as their candidate? I think that if Russia actually prefer Trump they would not release anything that would benefit Sanders in his struggle against Clinton.

> Reliable intelligence sources in the West

What sources ? it's too easy to begin an article like that without even telling where the information comes.

> By Defense & Foreign Affairs

I guess it is them

Doesn't look trustable to me. I didn't hear any Russian official saying they were going to release confidential communication from US officials.

If russia does this, will it not damage Russia's standing globally? It is not like the FBI cannot get hillary's emails, which, correct me if I am wrong, they totally can. If russia does this, it would be a down right open and transparent attempt of influencing domestic issues and justice and due process.

1 - It's hard to see what could further damage Russia's standing.

2 - Russia doesn't appear to be very concerned about its image anyway.

To get Clinton out of the race? DMC will have a candidate, the question is who? And if you support Trump (for your own end) which one would be best. Do you think Clinton or Sanders would have a bigger chans of winning against Trump?

Sanders by a landslide, according to a bazillion polls by almost all major polling organizations throughout the entire campaign.

Generally, the polling has indicated the following:

• Sanders beats every GOP contender by a big margin.

• Clinton beats most, by a small margin, and loses to Kasich.
