“Burisma” is trending Monday night as the New York Times has published a report saying “security experts” have found that Russian military hackers tried to hack into Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma.
Russians hacked the Ukrainian company at the center of President Trump’s impeachment. Experts suspect they may be seeking information on the Bidens https://t.co/wa9ZiB0WDj
— NYT Politics (@nytpolitics) January 13, 2020
The Times reports:
It is not yet clear what the hackers found, or precisely what they were searching for. But the experts say the timing and scale of the attacks suggest that the Russians could be searching for potentially embarrassing material on the Bidens — the same kind of information that Mr. Trump wanted from Ukraine when he pressed for an investigation of the Bidens and Burisma, setting off a chain of events that led to his impeachment.
So it’s not clear what they found or what they were searching for, but let’s just say they were looking for dirt on the Bidens, of which we’re sure there’s plenty. Maybe they came across some malarkey.

We have questions:
When are you going to add to your story the crucial fact that security company making this claim is working basically pro bono for the Biden campaign?
Did you ask why they'd do this?
Who made the decision to publish this with zero unbiased sources? https://t.co/0bL4avkgYm

And oh, by the way, the Biden family (And Hunter Biden himself) has a history of blaming their personal and professional shortcomings on the Russians.
There are *thousands* of independent experts on this topic that can be consulted. NYT simply refused to ask!

1) NYTimes "reporting"
2) "experts say" — unnamed of course
3) "a Silicon Valley Security firm" unnamed, claimsSo you're saying it's totally a rumor, cause you've got nothing. Also doesn't this sound eerily like the "DNC" hack story?

Is Bob Mueller available? Is this another Trump-Russia collusion hoax developing?

Trump set it up to distract from his impeachment!
Dear Democrats:
Thank you for bringing up the subject of Ukraine.
If you hadn't, we never would have known about the Biden family's dealings there.
Gratefully,
Millions of voters

Damn, the Russians want quid pro quo Biden.

Did Hunter’s exploits (in Ukraine, China, etc) possibly give foreign adversaries blackmail material on @JoeBiden that they could use on him were he to become POTUS? I think it’s time to ask. If I were @realDonaldTrump, I would ask on behalf of the American people.

People assume the Burisma hack is to help Trump, but it could just as easily be about having leverage over Biden in case he wins in 2020. That would be my move, for what it's worth.

No they haven’t.
This needs to raise a HUGE red flag.
Nobody could be more desperate to poison evidence of Biden’s corruption under the banner of "Russian assistance to Trump’s campaign" than Brennan holdovers in the CIA, Soros and the Democrats.
Russia has zero incentive.

Did John Brennan leak that story?

Russia seems to be doing more for justice in the United States than the @HouseDemocrats ??????

The Bidens: Ruh roh.

I wonder if Biden will be investigated for colluding with Russia. Obviously, the Russians are working for Biden to steal away all the incriminating evidence against #HunterBiden.

Oh good grief, next NYT will be running a story insinuating or outright claiming with anonymous sources saying Trump negotiated it with Putin.— asjah8 (@asjah8) January 14, 2020
Cue the blaming of Trump and Trump is a Russian agent in 3, 2, 1…

Dems better get a committee together to investigate! ?????

They're getting out ahead of the release of documents that will show more money went to Hunter Biden than was claimed. This way they can claim that the payola was a "Russian Conspiracy" and "Trump is in league with Putin"

This is why the DNC needs to learn to code.

Where is Hunter Biden? First he ducks out of child support hearings, and now this?
