DC Hackers Strike Again! Hilary's Outrageous Spending Revealed In New Leak
June 21 2016, Published 9:32 p.m. ET
Hillary Clinton's campaign just received another major blow after a hacker known as Guccifer 2.0 leaked a massive amount of top-secret data revealing her darkest secrets.
A hacker by the name of Guccifer 2.0 (after notorious hacker "Guccifer") claimed on a website to have leaked "a big folder of docs devoted to Hillary Clinton that I found on the DNC server."
The Smoking Gun reported that on Tuesday morning, the anonymous hacker distributed over 250 files allegedly prepared by Democratic National Committee staffers. The files constitute thousands of pages of material.
In addition to leaking tax returns and personal financial disclosure reports, the hacker released information on Clinton's over-the-top spending habits. These included a "chartered roundtrip private jet" that had to be a Gulfstream 450, if not a larger airplane, according to The Smoking Gun. The Gulfstream jet can cost at least $40 million.
For one engagement, she required a $225,000 speaking fee, the use of a "presidential suite" for accommodation and a "a flat fee of $1,000" for a private copy of "an immediate transcript of Secretary Clinton's remarks."
Clinton's large expenses may come as no surprise to some politicos. RadarOnline.com has previously reported on Clinton's extravagant wardrobe costs and ongoing habit of sparing no expense during her campaign.
Guccifer 2.0 previously released an enormous trove of DNC opposition research on Donald Trump, revealing ways in which Clinton planned to to defeat the presumptive GOP nominee.
Little is known about Guccifer 2.0, but the hacker told Vice in a recent interview that he was Romanian like the first Guccifer and said he had nothing to do with the Russian government and their alleged hack of DNC servers.
"I don't like Russians and their foreign policy. I hate being attributed to Russia," he told Vice.
Guccifer 2.0 said he hacked the DNC servers to emulate the first Guccifer and claimed they were not his only victims. He refused to name who else he's hacked because he said his "safety depends on it."
