Watergate 2.0 -- Suspicions of something more sinister -- The spymaster-in-chief -- Trump's agents, Putin's assets -- Operation LUCKY-7: the Kremlin plan to elect a president -- Battles of the CYBER BEARS -- WikiLeaks: Russia's intelligence laundromat -- When CYBER BEARS attack -- Cyberwar to defend democracy.
The thrilling true story of how Putin's spy agency, run by the Russian billionaire class, used the promise of power and influence to cultivate Trump as well as his closest aides, the Kremlin Crew, to become unwitting assets of the Russian government. In April 2016, computer technicians at the Democratic National Committee discovered that someone had accessed the organization's computer servers. The FBI found that more than twenty-five state election offices had their voter registration systems probed or attacked by the same hackers. The hack was tracked to Russian spy agencies and the stolen information channeled to Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks. The goal of the attack: to elect Donald Trump as president of the United States.
