The Nation is a far left media outlet that is anything but a supporter of President Trump. That is why the new report in The Nation makes such a compelling read. According to the reporter, forensic examination done in connection with the hack of the DNC and the John Podesta email account in 2016 shows that it was NOT the Russians who hacked the system but rather someone on the inside who leaked the documents which were then formatted to give the appearance of a Russian hack.
Think about that. We are in the second year of the Trump/Russia collusion investigations which are all based upon the supposed Russian hacking of the DNC. If there was no Russian hack of the DNC computers, then there surely wasn't any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. The whole edifice of the investigation of nothing would come crashing down.
The article in The Nation is long but worth reading if you have time. If not, here are two paragraphs that pretty much sum it all up.
There was no hack of the Democratic National Committee’s system on July 5 last year—not by the Russians, not by anyone else. Hard science now demonstrates it was a leak—a download executed locally with a memory key or a similarly portable data-storage device. In short, it was an inside job by someone with access to the DNC’s system. This casts serious doubt on the initial “hack,” as alleged, that led to the very consequential publication of a large store of documents on WikiLeaks last summer.

- Forensic investigations of documents made public two weeks prior to the July 5 leak by the person or entity known as Guccifer 2.0 show that they were fraudulent: Before Guccifer posted them they were adulterated by cutting and pasting them into a blank template that had Russian as its default language. Guccifer took responsibility on June 15 for an intrusion the DNC reported on June 14 and professed to be a WikiLeaks source—claims essential to the official narrative implicating Russia in what was soon cast as an extensive hacking operation. To put the point simply, forensic science now devastates this narrative.
