President Donald Trump celebrated a judge dismissing the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) lawsuit accusing his campaign, Russia, and Wikileaks of interfering in the 2016 election.
“The primary wrongdoer in this alleged criminal enterprise is undoubtably the Russian Federation, the first named defendant in the case and the entity that surreptitiously and illegally hacked into the DNC’s computers and thereafter disseminated the results of its theft,” wrote U.S. District Judge John Koeltl, who was appointed by former president Bill Clinton, on Tuesday, July 30 in the ruling.
