  2. It's been interesting to follow the serial explanations of the media for the election. First, we were told it was a shameful whitelash, of white people showing just how bigoted and hate-filled they are. Then, it was an attack on Obama's legacy. Then it was hatred of foreigners by small-minded bigots in flyover country. Then, it was an obvious case of misogyny, knuckle-draggers were not ready for a strong woman as president. Then they rolled out the fake news explanation. Hillary lost because a few websites no one has ever heard of or gone to invented news stories, like she was in bad health, had numerous financial conflicts and was surrounded by really unpleasant people. Now it was the Russians. The CIA said so by golly so just STFU if you disagree.

    The Director of the CIA, John Brennan, is not only an Obama loyalist but is closely linked to the Saudi regime, having spent time there as the CIA Station Chief. He has been instrumental in Obama initiatives such as forbidding the use of the the terms jihadist or islamist terrorism, running arms to terrorists in Syria and driving out of government patriots such as Gen. Flynn, who held a much less favorable view of islam and muslim regimes.

    Moreover, the recent media obsession with supposed Russian hacking has totally ignored the fact that whoever revealed this information preformed a valuable public service. We learned how crooked the DNC was, we learned that democrat big shots like Donna Brazile were unethical cheats who used their media access to funnel debate questions to Hillary, we learned that the dem insiders had shockingly mean-spirited views of any number of groups, including Catholics, etc etc.

    We learned that our pompous media regularly ran stories by the Clinton camp for approval before publication. In fact, one of the worst offenders, some dirtbag from Politico, has recently been hired as the NY Times White House correspondent. You can't make this shit up.

    Now we are told to just ignore all of that and focus on the fact the Putin is very bad. Very bad and anything Trump does to improve relations with Russia and maybe lessen the risks of WW III is a payoff.

    They had hoped to remain anon, but CIA operatives Rocky and Bullwinkle have been identified as secret sources on the case.

    The Russians instructed their U.S. based white supremacist cells to rally for Trump thereby freeing closet racists in the midwest from shame since everybody is doing it so they voted for Trump. Isn't it interesting that Trump won just enough electoral votes to be declared the winner? Yet the majority of the people don't take their instructions from Putin.

    Yeah, try that.

    Only intent is in question now.

    Top intel office not on same page as CIA regarding Russia hack assessment
    Published December 13, 2016

    "The nation’s top intelligence office is not on the same page as the CIA regarding its assessment that Russia interfered in the U.S. elections in a bid to help Donald Trump, a U.S. government source confirmed to Fox News on Tuesday.

    "The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which oversees the U.S. intelligence community, has not fully embraced the CIA finding.

    "Fox News is told that several U.S. election-related hacking incidents are being wrongly lumped together, when they should be treated as separate events -- these cover breaches at the Democratic National Committee and another campaign arm; in a top Hillary Clinton campaign official’s email account; and at state election boards.

    "Reuters reports that while the ODNI does not dispute the CIA’s general analysis on Russia hacking, the office is not convinced of the evidence that Moscow sought specifically to help Trump defeat Democratic opponent Clinton.

    "The government source told Fox News the discrepancy comes down to Russia’s intent."

    Well make up your mind what is right or wrong, because in 4 years Russia will hate Trump and do everything they can to defeat him. Then we will see just how wrong it is when you join forces with a ruthless dictator to dethrone an unlawfully elected racist president elected by a minority of voters whose votes may have been fraudulent and is only in power because he is a Russian puppet.
    yeah, try that
