Summary:  "In April 2016 computer technicians at the Democratic National Committee discovered that someone had accessed the organization's computer servers and conducted a theft that is best described as Watergate 2.0. The cyber thieves had helped themselves to everything: sensitive documents, emails, donor information, even voice mails. Soon after, the remainder of the Democratic Party machine, the congressional campaign, the Clinton campaign, and their friends and allies in the media were also hacked. Credit cards numbers, phone numbers, and contacts were stolen. Western intelligence agencies tracked the hack to Russian spy agencies. The media was soon flooded with the stolen information channeled through Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks. The Russian hacks appeared to have a singular goal - elect Donald J. Trump as president of the United States. Intelligence officer Malcolm Nance's real-life spy thriller takes you from Vladimir Putin's rise through the KGB from junior officer to spymaster-in-chief and spells out the story of how he performed the ultimate political manipulation - convincing Donald Trump to abandon seventy years of American foreign policy including the destruction of NATO, cheering the end of the European Union, allowing Russian domination of Eastern Europe, and destroying the existing global order with America at its lead. How Putin's spy agency, run by the Russian billionaire class, used the promise of power and influence to cultivate Trump as well as his closest aides to become unwitting assets of the Russian government. Malcolm Nance is the author of Defeating ISIS and the forthcoming Hacking ISIS."--Provided by publisher. Holds:  0   Copy/Holding information No Item Information
