MCFAUL: "Russia has this capability, and they're motivated, for political purposes, to do these kinds of things. What is really striking about the last 48 hours, of course, is that now the intelligence community is starting to directly give us news about the way these dots are connected. Remember, you and I, Chuck, have talked about this many times. We knew some things, like, we were pretty certain about the DNC hacking by the Russians. What we didn't have reported before was evidence that they gave that data to Wikileaks. And we also didn't have the data that you just described in your intro that they have hacked the RNC, the Republicans. Those are pretty big new facts, and I think they demand real attention in terms of some kind of investigation."
