Hillary Clinton email server update

How about another check-in with the information security administration:
Emails and photographs stolen from a personal email account of Kash Patel, the director of the F.B.I., circulated online on Friday, as hackers who claimed to be part of a group affiliated with Iranian intelligence took responsibility for the release.
The release of materials from before Mr. Patel’s time as F.B.I. chief appeared to be an effort to embarrass him as the war in Iran nears its first month. But there were questions about who had carried out the cyberattack and when the intrusion had taken place.
The files were posted on a website that included the name “Handala Team.” Handala, a pro-Iranian hacktivist group, is associated with the country’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security and is known for conducting “hack and leak” operations.
However, cybersecurity tools indicated that the website was being hosted by a computer server in Russia, which has a long history of hack-and-dump operations, including Democratic emails during the 2016 election. The site’s domain was registered on March 19 by an entity that appeared to identify itself as the Kingdom of Tonga.
Wait — Russia collaborating in a ratfucking operation? I have been told by some of the country’s worst podcasters and reporters that this is an unpossible hoax.
