So let's review what we know: 1) In September, CIA briefed this, and McConnell (who's unreliable) didn't buy it. https://www.emptywheel.net/2016/12/09/unpacking-new-cia-leak-dont-ignore-aluminum-tube-footnote/ …

Also, claim that "largely documents from Dem Party systems" were leaked? HUGE exception to this is Powell's emails. Those didn't help Trump.
-
Nor did they harm Trump. They did provide cover/diversion for motive of the hacking, making it look “nonpartisan”
-
There's a lot more that DC Leaks leaked. They were even still leaking post-election!
-
Most commentary on it has been what gets reported, not what got leaked, unlike WL. There's other stuff there, tho could be Ukraine
-
Do you think someone other than GRU hacked the RNC, and kept the “take” for themselves yet were misidentified by CIA?
-
Dunno. I'll have to look but one earlier analysis noted that RNC did not use Gmail or other that GRU had regular fakes for.
-
So it's possible they didn't succeed, as NYT suggests is possible.
-
I think the “No comment” by RNC in the NYT article says a lot, admittedly they may rescind that

I think there is a third party between GRU & FSB & Wikileaks. That party, or the Kremlin OR Wikileaks chose the files to leak.
