clinton and her supporters have tried to blame russia for hacking her emails and making them a focus in this election. 




in reality, it<u+2019>s likely that american intelligence and defense workers are the source for at least some of the leaks. 




the guardian reports today: 




deep antipathy to hillary clinton exists within the fbi, multiple bureau sources have told the guardian, spurring a rapid series of leaks damaging to her campaign just days before the election. 




*** 




the currently serving fbi agent said clinton is <u+201c>the antichrist personified to a large swath of fbi personnel,<u+201d> and that <u+201c> the reason why they<u+2019>re leaking is they<u+2019>re pro-trump.<u+201d> 




*** 




the leaks have not exclusively cast aspersions on clinton. paul manafort, trump<u+2019>s former campaign manager, is the subject of what is said to be a preliminary fbi inquiry into his business dealings in russia. manafort has denied any wrongdoing. 




moreover, clinton supporters have claimed that the emails found on anthony weiner<u+2019>s laptop are only duplicates of emails the fbi has previously seen. 




however, cbs news reports : 




the fbi has found emails related to hillary clinton<u+2019>s tenure as secretary of state on the laptop belonging to the estranged husband of huma abedin, anthony weiner, according to a u.s. official. 




these emails, cbs news<u+2019> andres triay reports, are not duplicates of emails found on secretary clinton<u+2019>s private server. 




*** <u+201c>these emails have never been seen before<u+201d>
clinton<u+2019>s email narrative just fell apart
