TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): She was speaking about a specific quote, "cyber attack." She was talking about the Russians hacking the servers at the DNC. Democrats wasted three years of our lives telling us that, in ever increasing volume. Here's the interesting thing: It was not true. It has never been true.

Vladimir Putin did not hack the DNC. There was never any evidence that the Russians hacked the DNC. Instead, the DNC emails were very clearly stolen from within the building, most likely by a Bernie Sanders supporter, who wanted to show the world how Bernie Sanders was being shafted by the very same corrupt forces in Washington that later shafted Donald Trump. That was very obvious to anyone who was paying attention at the time. What's interesting is that no one's been punished for it. Likely no one ever will be.
