The interesting thing about this allegation is the way it's overshadowed the deeply damaging, last minute investigation the FBI initiated into Hillary Clinton's emails. After previously clearing Clinton of any wrong-doing, FBI Director Comey re-opened the investigation less than two week before the election. And he didn't just get a judge's order and then quietly confiscate the object of interest- a laptop computer. He publicly sent a letter on the matter to the US Congress! After that bombshell, anything Russia might have allegedly leaked to Wikileaks was trivial.

FBI Director Comey is a Republican, naturally.
