GRU hackers launch dcleaks.com on their Malaysian server to surface the stolen emails from the Clinton campaign and Republicans including John McCain and Lindsey Graham. They also created a DCLeaks Facebook page and fake accounts with American names, “Jason Scott”, Richard Gingrey” and others. GRU officer Potemkin and others from GRU unit 74455 used these accounts.
