The hackers used access to Stone’s email account to try to break into the account of a senior Trump campaign official as part of a persistent effort to access campaign networks, one of the sources said.

Fun fact: the German research institute where I worked until I retired has an enormous telescope dish, with fine resolution because it’s under a dome.
Among other things, that dept (not mine) tracks space junk, information which is vital when a new satellite or spacecraft goes up.
(Very impressive to see!)

I love that he got nailed with the dumbest of all dumb internet mistakes.
A pro-Trump super PAC is launching a $100 million TV ad buy between now and Labor Day in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina.
Which tells you in which states Donnie’s few competent professionals think they’re in trouble. Blue Wall, baby.
