10 days later Guccifer 2.0 sent Nevins 2.5 gigabytes of data from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Note that that is different from the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the hack were most familiar with.
This info later landed in the hands of Roger Stone, too. We don't know what Stone did with it, but his life as a political dirty trickster suggests some possibilities.

I've always kind of seen the Russian interference on two tracks. First is the money angle where I believe Trump and family and very inner circle are up to their eyeballs in money laundering. But, second, I think Roger Stone and his political dirty trickster pals saw a chance to really s****w Dems/Clinton once the DNC, etc data was hacked and stolen. The fact that Stone is known to have contacted Guccifer 2.0, gotten data from Nevins and been in contact to Assange indicates to me he could well have been one of the people directing the Facebook and Twitter targeting.
