The alleged snoops set up an encrypted backdoor tunnel into the DNC&#8217;s servers, and used it to exfiltrate gigabytes of information without being detected.<\/p>\n<p>These files were then shared with websites and the wider internet to embarrass the Dems, derailing to some degree their bid to control Congress and the White House, it is claimed. The indictment also alleged that at least one US congressional candidate also sought out dirt from the hackers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On or about August 15, 2016, the Conspirators, posing as Guccifer 2.0, received a request for stolen documents from a candidate for the US Congress,&#8221; the indictment stated. &#8220;The Conspirators responded using the Guccifer 2.0 persona and sent the candidate stolen documents related to the candidate\u2019s opponent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rosenstein emphasized no Americans were charged or implicated in the indictments. However, folks poring over the legal paperwork clocked almost immediately that on the day Trump publicly called on Russian hackers to extract emails from Clinton&#8217;s campaign, the alleged Kremlin-controlled miscreants struck \u2013 &#8220;for the first time,&#8221; according to the indictment.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet tw-align-center\" data-lang=\"en\" readability=\"11.292929292929\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">July 27, 2016, Trump: &#8220;Russia, if you&#8217;re listening, I hope you\u2019re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.&#8221;<br \/>Indictment: That evening, Russian operatives targeted Clinton campaign emails &#8220;for the first time.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fanyaAxwfJ\">pic.twitter.com\/fanyaAxwfJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Christopher Ingraham (@_cingraham) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_cingraham\/status\/1017813203256930304?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 13, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet tw-align-center\" data-conversation=\"none\" data-lang=\"en\" readability=\"13.397350993377\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">On July 27, 2016, then-candidate Trump said \u201cRussia, if you\u2019re listening, I hope you\u2019re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.\u201d THAT SAME DAY Russian intel officers targeted, for the first time, Hillary Clinton\u2019s personal office.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sen.
