After consuming as much of the report as a person can without going blind or insane (I\u2019m attempting to save you the trouble), here are what I see as the more alluring Mueller finds. Please note: save your harassment for someone else that Mueller got it all wrong, that Russia didn\u2019t hack, that Assange was used etc. I\u2019m only reporting and commenting on what Mueller <em>claims<\/em> to have found, not that he got it right. A few of these \u201cfindings\u201d were already part of the public record and are listed in chronological order, not by order of importance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">***<\/p>\n<p>1: Mueller finds that the General Staff of the Russian Army, under the direction of Russian intelligence, hacked Hillary Clinton staffers (i.e. John Podesta) as well as the DNC and DCCC. Those stolen emails were then distributed through DCLeaks, Guccifer 2.0 (both Russian creations) and Wikileaks.
