Russian spies hacked Ukrainian energy company at center of President Trump's impeachment

U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-California, who chairs the House Intelligence Committee and has been a key figure in Trump’s impeachment, said the alleged hacking shows that Russia was still interested in interfering with U.S. elections.his testimony

"They appear, if this reporting is correct, to be in the midst of another hacking and potentially another dumping operation designed to influence another election," Schiff said of the Russian government.Area 1 Security said in its report that the targeting of a Ukrainian company by the GRU is not particularly novel, but “it is significant because Burisma Holdings is publicly entangled in U.S. foreign and domestic politics.

Area 1 Security said that the campaign by the GRU against Burisma Holdings began as early as November. The phishing technique used is described as credential harvesting and involves stealing account information like usernames and passwords. That can allow groups to get inside systems and impersonate employees.

Thanks to brainiac orenfalkowitz & folks at Area 1 Security for identifying Russian actors!

Here we go again with Russians trying to help Trump win

Perfect timing i guess!!!

Letting us know we haven't stopped them from hacking our elections😡

They probably want to use it against Biden. Watch out.

HAHAHA MockingbirdMedia FakeNewsMafia FakeNews FakeNewsMedia

PRESS X TO DOUBT

No coincidence

Those sneaky Russians. You guys are insane 🙄

You mean the energy company at the center of JoeBiden getting his son an job paying millions for nothing and the one Joe blackmailed the Ukrainian government to fire the prosecutor investigating Hunter. There, fixed your headline, liberal hacks.

Maybe Putin wanted to do that to help Trump!

I bet they found some very juicey stuff

Of course MESSNBC, but of course! I bet you're so proud of your viewership... I just don't know whose worse you or them 🙂

Can you say clearer which security company ? Please be honest , you cann't be immune by saying such a thing! Such behaviour is not acceptable by social standard!

And why would that be? To perhaps plant some fake evidence implicating Biden Sr.? All in the Putin - Trump plan, to be sure. These dudes are a workout.

GEORGE NADER TOP WITNESS AT THE RUSSIAN COLLUSION HOAX HERE ON STATUTORY RAPE ISLAND WITH THE OTHER MOLESTERS! DID YOU COVER HIS CONVICTION ON CHILD MOLESTATION AND SEX TRAFFICKING AMONG OTHER CHARGES WILL HE GO EPSTEIN? WILL HE TESTIFY ON THE BILL THE CLINTON?

The problem of hackin is that you no need no photos or videos, you just say 'it's hacker attack.' and so on.

Russia is obviously still working to get Trump re-elected. Good luck US for getting a fair and honest election.

That’s a far stretch from the truth.

And they have nothing or they’d be released already but they’re probably creating false docs as we tweet.

This maybe what the Trump's cooperation on cybersecurity and terrorism with Russia is really about now, Russia hacks and plant fake Hunter Biden e-mails on the Burisma server, so Giuliani finally has the material to use in the impeachment trial to some how exonorate Trump.

Trump might as well have coded the dropper🙄

'Russia did something. This is proof Trump is being used by Putin.' - Dumbfucks

45 is a threat to national security. To our way of life!

Naturally.

Really!!!!!!!! Your kidding,Yes.

And your insinuation is....

But what anout her emails?

Ya don’t say?

Coincidence? I think not realDonaldTrump!

So if Biden is elected, he’ll be Putin’s puppet.

And we should trust orange ape thing

What? They just had to follow Nancy. Those Russians aren’t that bright?

It's a CyberWar

Somebody call Rachel Maddow’s Doctor. We’re going to need to up her meds

Well well we’ll!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

If it’s at the center of his impeachment than it seems logical Hunter Biden gets called to testify.

Oh interesting I'm sure that's just more proof of how Trump has nothing to do with all of the sketchy stuff happening all around him always so innocent folks.

So we know what is going to be on Maddow now.

“Security experts” say. Hahha. I don’t care what they say.

What is connection between Ukrainian energy company and Imeachment of President of the United States?

Keep peddling your BS 4am talking points!!!

He asked for it- he got it...

My guess is they will fabricate dirt. Media better verify well anything they get their hands on.

Are you SURE it wasn't the Democratic party? Seems like maybe someone should check on the veracity of this allegation to me.

Gee....I wonder why they would do such a thing? 🤔 Could it be, to try to help their puppet? What other logical explanation is there?

Just like the DNC server was 'hacked'. No evidence presented. Just DemocRats setting up an excuse for themselves when they fail this November.

🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

It's that old 'Russia, if you're listening' thing again, only 4 years later, and its the ss/dd. Not one thing must have been done since Mueller told everyone it would happen again.

Odd... burisma is not a trump issue so much as a biden one.. The difference is biden has media on his side.

So what did Russia take, and what did they leave? Lots of 'evidence' to be found/leaked later?

Hunter must be freaking huh?

What did they plant? 🤨

I for one, am far more interested in the content of the hack then by who did the hacking. This should be good. Especially once the DNC does everything they can to screw over Bernie and get Biden up on that debate stage with Trump. I swear the DNC is trumps secret ally. Not Putin

Of course.

Russia's hacking game is unparalleled

Russian spies for Trump. Imagine if any democrat had help from the intelligence agency of Iran/NK/Russia in TWO election cycles. Trump deserves to be impeached for looking the other way on foreign interference.

It’s known that Russians helped elect realDonaldTrump and now are trying to get him re-elected! What is not expected is that we as patriotic Americans are not mad as heck that we’ve been trampled upon by our adversary & come out in droves to disappoint them! VOTE
