FBI Claims DNC ‘Inhibited’ Its Investigation Of Stolen Emails

[Revmitchell]

The Democratic National Committee “inhibited” the FBI’s investigation of email hacks by refusing to grant investigators access to the party’s computer servers, the bureau is claiming.

“The FBI repeatedly stressed to DNC officials the necessity of obtaining direct access to servers and data, only to be rebuffed until well after the initial compromise had been mitigated,” an FBI official said Thursday, according to BuzzFeed News.

“This left the FBI no choice but to rely upon a third party for information. These actions caused significant delays and inhibited the FBI from addressing the intrusion earlier.”

Yes. Yesterday you posted an article quoting the DNC saying the FBI didn't ask to see their servers and you vigorously defended it. Now today you post this. Changed your mind?

Yesterday you responded by saying it was not necessary for the FBI to see the servers and couldn't imagine why that was a big deal. I did not say they had not asked to see the servers someone form the DNC said they never asked for them. There is nothing for me to change on. I never made the claim.
