Democratic National Convention
As the Democratic National Convention kicks off in Philadelphia, an unusual question is capturing the attention of cyberspecialists, Russia experts and Democratic Party leaders: Is Vladimir Putin trying to meddle in the American presidential election?
A Wikileaks release on Friday of some 20,000 stolen emails from DNC computer servers has intensified discussion of the potential role of Russian intelligence agencies in disrupting the 2016 campaign.
The emails have laid bare the extent to which party leaders favored Hillary Clinton over her primary rival, Sen.Bernie Sanders, and they’ve triggered the resignation of party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Researchers have concluded that the DNC was breached by two Russian intelligence agencies, which were the same attackers behind previous Russian cyberoperations at the White House, the State Department and the Joint Chiefs of Staff last year.
We discuss this and look ahead to the DNC this week in Philadelphia.
Joining us are Kristellys Estanga, chair of the Jacksonville Young Democrats, and Susie Wiles, co-chair of the Donald Trump Florida campaign.
