A Russian hacker accused of stealing from Russian banks reportedly confessed in court that he hacked the U.S. Democratic National Committee (DNC) and stole Hillary Clinton's emails under the direction of agents from Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB).
According to Russian news site The Bell, Konstantin Kozlovsky, a Russian citizen working for a hacker group called Lurk, confessed to hacking Clinton's emails during a hearing about his arrest in August. An audio recording and minutes from the hearing were posted on Kozlovsky's Facebook page, and their authenticity was reportedly confirmed by The Bell.
In a handwritten letter that also appears in a photo on his Facebook page, Kozlovsky admits to hacking the DNC on the orders of an FSB agent he called "Ilya."

We are dealing with it. It's called protesting and calling for impeachment.

I'm just gonna put this out there as an FYI: it helps if you have credible suspicion of a crime having been committed by the President if you want to impeach him. The "muh Russians" narrative ain't managing it.

You're thinking judicial system. They still like to keep up appearances that they're after justice. Congress is shackled by no such scruples.
