The 2016 Democratic National Committee email leak is a collection of Democratic National Committee emails leaked by WikiLeaks in July 2016. The collection included 19,252 emails and 8,034 attachments from the DNC, the governing body of the United States' Democratic Party.[1] The leak includes emails from seven key DNC staff members, and date from January 2015 to May 2016.[2] Commentators argued the emails illustrated the DNC was not neutral during the Democratic primaries, and favored the campaign of Hillary Clinton over the Bernie Sanders campaign. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who served the chair of the DNC, was central to these accusations; in emails, Schultz said Sanders would not be elected president and in several cases maligned Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver. Following the leaks, Schultz resigned. 2016 Democratic National Convention.[3]

WikiLeaks has not revealed its source.[4] A hacker going by the handle "Guccifer 2.0" claims to be the source of the leaks.[5] However, several cyber security experts and firms working with the DNC, such as CrowdStrike, Fidelis Cybersecurity, Mandiant, SecureWorks, ThreatConnect, and the editor for Ars Technica,[6] believe the leak was part of the a series of cyber attacks committed by two Russian intelligence groups.[7][8][9][10][11] The Russian government and WikiLeaks denied the accusation.”[12][13]

On July 25, 2016, the FBI announced that it would investigate the hack.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20] The same day, the DNC issued a formal apology to Bernie Sanders and his supporters, stating, "On behalf of everyone at the DNC, we want to offer a deep and sincere apology to Senator Sanders, his supporters, and the entire Democratic Party for the inexcusable remarks made over email," and that the emails did not reflect the DNC's "steadfast commitment to neutrality during the nominating process."[21]

Contents

The leak revealed information about the DNC's interactions with the media, Hillary and Bernie Sanders' campaigns, and financial contributions. It also includes personal information about the donors of the Democratic Party, including credit card and social security numbers, which could facilitate identity theft.[22] In a tweet, WikiLeaks stated "Just to be clear. It isn't an error.".[23]

Media

The emails include DNC staff's "off-the-record" correspondence with media personalities, including the reporters at CNN,[24][25][26] Politico, the Wall Street Journal, and the Washington Post.[4]

Bernie Sanders' campaign

Some commentators argued that the emails showed that the DNC was biased against the Bernie Sanders campaign, favoring the Hillary Clinton's campaign. In a May 2016 email chain, the DNC chief financial officer (CFO) Brad Marshall told the DNC chief executive officer, Amy Dacy, that someone should ask Sanders if he is an atheist.[27][28] In another email, Wasserman Schultz said of Bernie Sanders, "He isn't going to be president."[29]

In another email chain, the DNC National Press Secretary Mark Paustenbach discussed a response to the controversy that ensued when a Sanders staffer illegally tapped into the Clinton campaign's confidential voter information. As a response, the DNC briefly limited Sanders' campaign access to the DNC voter database. The Sanders campaign at the time filed a suit against the DNC as a result but then immediately dropped it. Paustenbach in response to media coverage of the controversy suggested propagating a negative narrative about the Sanders campaign that "never ever had his act together, that his campaign was a mess."[27][28]

Debbie Wasserman Schultz's emails

One email chain from May 2016 indicates that the website RealClearPolitics changed the headline of one of its articles after objections were raised by DNC officials, with Wasserman Schultz writing that the "headline needs to be changed."[30] The emails also contain messages showing Debbie Wasserman Schultz maligning Jeff Weaver, manager of Bernie Sanders's campaign, calling Weaver a "Damn liar," "an ASS," and "scummy."[31][32][33][34] The messages also allegedly show Wasserman Schultz asking DNC staff to use fundraising to acquire personal goods, such as asking DNC fundraiser Zachery Allen to acquire seven tickets for the Broadway show Hamilton! for Wasserman Schultz and her college roommates.[35][36][37][38][34][39]

In May 2016, MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski called on Debbie Wasserman Schultz to step down over the DNC's bias against the Bernie Sanders campaign.[40][41][42] Schultz was upset at the negative coverage of her actions in the media, and she emailed Chuck Todd that such coverage of her "must stop".[43][44][45][46][47] Describing the coverage as the "LAST straw", she ordered the DNC's communications director to call MSNBC president Phil Griffin to demand an apology from Brzezinski.[48][49]

Financial information

An email dated April 20, 2016, by DNC National Finance Director Jordan Kaplan, appears to plan to reward a billionaire relative,[50] wealthy donors, and fundraisers with federal appointments on boards and commissions.[50][51][52] That email includes spreadsheet files which circulated among top DNC officials. It "contains 23 names of little-known corporate executives and professional fundraisers who have donated to the committee and various Democratic political action committees."[51] The Huffington Post adds that "The White House strongly denied any link between financial support for the party and appointments."[51]

Making fun of someone's name

On May 6, 2016 an email exchange between DNC Finance Chair Zachary Allen and DNC Finance Chief of Staff Scott Comer, appears to make fun of a black woman's name.[53][54][55][56][57][58] Allen and Comer were discussing a DNC LGBT event involving an African-American employee.[54][56] According to Mic, that exchange of emails correspond to the period "when many are speaking out about the Clintons' track record with people of color and the issues that affect them."[54] Vibe adds that "Comer makes a joke about [the Executive Assistant's] name and Allen does little to correct him"[56]

Tim Canova

Among the emails leaked, around 80 contained information on Debbie Wasserman Schultz's opponent in the upcoming Florida Primary, Tim Canova. The emails tracked Canova's campaign movements, flagged positive news reports about his campaign, asked RealClearPolitics to remove Canova's name from a headline, and asked the head of the Alaska Democratic Party to do "some digging" on a pro-Bernie Sanders event in the state that Canova took part in. After the leak, Canova announced that his lawyers were filing a Federal Election Commission complaint against Wasserman Schultz for her possible violation of campaign finance laws, due to the DNC allegedly acting as an arm of Wasserman Schultz's campaign, and for improperly using DNC funds and resources.[59][60][61]

Hispanic voter outreach

Several other emails depicted conversations regarding Democratic outreach to Hispanic voters. One email in particular laid out a list of objectives in order to "own Hispanic loyalty," and referred to Hispanics as "brand loyal consumers."[62][63] These generalizations about Hispanics drew condemnation from some in the Hispanic community, including New Mexico governor Susana Martinez.[64] Another email drew controversy when one staffer appeared to describe Hispanic voter outreach as “taco bowl engagement;” however, some refuted the claim that this was a racial nickname and instead suggested that it referred to Donald Trump tweeting an image of himself with a taco bowl for Cinco de Mayo.[65]

Reactions

On July 18, 2016, an article by Fox News about hacker "Guccifer 2.0" reported that Russian press secretary Dmitry Peskov "denied Russian government involvement in the DNC hacking incident."[66] Peskov called it "paranoid" and "absurd",[67] saying: "We are again seeing these maniacal attempts to exploit the Russian theme in the US election campaign."[68]

On July 24, 2016, Sanders urged Schultz to resign following the leak and stated that he was "disappointed" by the leak, but that he was "not shocked."[10][69] Jeff Weaver, Bernie Sanders' campaign manager, called for greater accountability in the DNC, calling Schultz "a figure of disunity" within the Democratic Party.[70] [71] Later the same day, Schultz resigned from her position as DNC Chairman, effective as of the end of the nominating convention.[72] After Schultz resigned, Sanders said that she had "made the right decision for the future of the Democratic Party."[73] On the following day, the DNC apologized to Bernie Sanders, his supporters, and the Democratic Party "for inexcusable remarks made over email."

Former DNC official and current Governor of Virginia Terry McAuliffe said that "I sat in that chair in 2004 trying to navigate all the different candidates we had. But if you had people in there who were trashing one of the candidates, I can tell you this, if I were still chairman they wouldn't be working there. I mean, that is just totally unacceptable behavior."[74]

Anthony Zurcher, North America reporter for the BBC, commented that "the revelation that those in the heart of the Democratic establishment sought to undermine the anti-establishment Sanders is roughly on a par with [Casablanca character] police Capt Renault's professed shock that gambling was taking place in the Casablanca club he was raiding, as a waiter hands him his winnings."[75]

Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus said that "Today's events show really what an uphill climb the Democrats are facing this week in unifying their party. Starting out the week by losing your party chairman over longstanding bitterness between factions is no way to keep something together." [76]

Media coverage and public perception

The New York Times reported that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange stated in an interview on British ITV on 12 June 2016, that he hoped that the publication of the emails would "... harm Hillary Clinton's chances to win the presidency..." and that he had timed the release to coincide with the Democratic convention."[77] In an interview with CNN, Assange would neither confirm nor deny who WikiLeaks' sources were; he claimed that his website "... might release "a lot more material" relevant to the US electoral campaign..." [78]

On July 25, 2016, Anne Applebaum, columnist for the Washington Post, writes that “… with the exception of a few people on Twitter and a handful of print journalists, most of those covering this story, especially on television, are not interested in the nature of the hackers, and they are not asking why the Russians apparently chose to pass the emails on to WikiLeaks at this particular moment, on the eve of the Democratic National Convention. They are focusing instead on the content of what were meant to be private emails …” She goes on to describe in detail other Russian destabilization campaigns in Eastern European countries.[79]

"It is almost impossible to know for sure whether or not Russia is behind a hack of the Democratic National Committee's servers", says Russian security expert and investigative journalist Andrei Soldatov. According to him, the Russian government considers Clinton "a hater of Russia": "There is this mentality in Russia of being besieged; that it is always under attack from the United States. ... They are trying to interfere in our internal affairs so why not try to do the same thing to them?"[80]
