Hacked Chat logs from left-wing radical David Brock’s “Correct The Record” (CTR) show that as last years Presidential Election was heating up, CTR somehow gained access to National Security Agency (NSA) computer hacking tools, and used them against Trump Supporters on Twitter, REDDIT, 4Chan and 8Chan.

So determined was CTR to stifle pro-Trump supporters that they even said they would DOX key supporters to have them dealt with “Seth Rich” style (murdered)!

FOXACID is an NSA-developed software intrusion tool designed to covertly gain access to other people’s computer systems. As you will read in the chat log below, FOXACID was used by David Brock’s “Correct the Record” (CTR) Trolls and by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) last year.

Correct the Record (CTR) was given access to FoxAcid !

As you will now read from the hacked chat logs, CTR was somehow given access to the NSA’s “FoxAcid” system. They admit having it, and in the chat below, they set out to actually USE IT against anyone on the Internet who was “driving the narrative” in support of Donald Trump. Users on Twitter, REDDIT, and the web sites 4chan and 8 chan were specifically targeted by CTR!

What you are about to read now, was hacked from the CTR chat logs. It is a conversation between David Brock, Elliot Fink, and Elizabeth Kim.

The elusive Shadow Brokers didn't have much luck selling the NSA's hacking tools, so they're giving more of the software away – to everyone. In a Medium post, the mysterious team supplied the password for an encrypted file containing many of the Equation Group surveillance tools swiped back in 2016.

Supposedly, the group posted the content in "protest" at President Trump turning his back on the people who voted for him. The leaked data appears to check out, according to researchers, but some of it is a couple of decades old and focused on platforms like Linux.

If anything, the leak might backfire. Edward Snowden notes that while the leak is "nowhere near" representing the NSA's complete tool set, there's enough that the NSA should "instantly identify" where and how the kit leaked. This doesn't mean the Shadow Brokers themselves are about to face capture. However, this may give the agency info it needs to both connect the dots (how much of a role did NSA contractor Harold Thomas Martin III play in the online leak, for instance?) and prevent a repeat incident.
