UNITED STATES CITIZENS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN PROCESS AGAINST TRUMP/RUSSIA
UNITED STATES CITIZENS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN PROCESS AGAINST TRUMP/RUSSIA
In conjunction with the recent lawsuit by DNC chair Tom Perez and the party to refocus attention on this frightening attack on our democracy.
ELECTRONIC WATERGATE
While no adversaries broke down a door to the DNC headquarters, what Trump/Russia did was even more of an intrusion on our democracy. They burrowed into the DNC computer system and lurked there for more than a year, siphoning off private emails for later distribution via WikiLeaks, to undermine Hillary Clinton's campaign. They sought to destroy the Democratic Party by sowing discord and division, discrediting the DNC nominee with salacious lies and disinformation, and forcing the DNC to spend untold millions to protect data, remedy the hacking, and set up a firewall against additional hacking.
RUSSIA
The U.S. intelligence community agrees that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election to favor Trump. The Trump campaign had multiple clandestine communications with Russian agents and with WikiLeaks. The Russians offered the Trump campaign stolen emails. Roger Stone, Trump’s close adviser, sent clear signals that he had knowledge of the release of those stolen records. This class action lawsuit names the Russian government and the Trump campaign as co-conspirators who shared the goal of damaging the Democratic Party and undermining our Democracy.

DEMOCRACY UNDER SIEGE
This lawsuit is aimed at equity, not damages. The same was true of a similar lawsuit the DNC filed against Richard Nixon's campaign that was successfully settled in the era of Watergate. As before, all we want is accountability and a consent decree to take steps to protect our elections and preserve our democracy. The Russians tried to penetrate or hack into the election system in 21 states.
The 2016 hacking and other intrusions have riled citizens, who increasingly have come to realize that democracy is only as strong as citizen interest in preserving it.
