Hillary didn't get hacked, it was one of the other people in her circle who got phished. John podesta I think?

Anyways. Yeah, phished. Maybe it's super secret agents or maybe it was a teenager from 4chan.



Both happened. The spearfishing John Podestra gmail hack was separate.

The Hilary personal email server used for government business that contained classified information that was illegal was hacked by Russian agents the fbi alledged.


FYI, putting in heavy partisan asides in comments hurts credibility with neutral readers.

I think you're confusing the DNC and campaign server hacks with Hillary's personal server she used while at State. No indications her personal server was hacked: https://techcrunch.com/2019/04/18/mueller-clinton-arizona-ha...


Hillary's IT Admin was asking on reddit how to wipe a server of a VIP. With such incompetent admin there is a high probability that the server was hacked.

Actually Hillary was hacked by a lone wolf from Romania, and he received jail for this https://youtu.be/8gfzNyZ3trI
