Report: Democrat Groups Paid Ransoms to Hide Protester Funding
2017-03-08
H/t Instapundit
Over a dozen Democratic groups were approached with ransom demands by Russian hackers over protester funding information, according to a Monday report from Bloomberg.

The liberal Center for American Progress was one of the groups that was approached by what FBI officials report is the same group behind the Democratic National Committee hacks committed last year.

Bloomberg reports that some of the groups paid the demanded ransom in an attempt to hide sensitive data that revealed the group's role in funding anti-Trump protesters nationwide.
I'm old enough to remember when Russians (Soviets) were funding all these groups.

#3  The infiltration of these 'democratic groups' appears to be logical next step,

Whenever I think that, it turns out Project Veritas has already done so and has very interesting video.
