We don’t yet know the full scope of the Russian involvement in the 2016 election.

But we do know that they placed ads that were clearly designed to exploit racial and political tensions in our election and to weaken support for the NATO alliance among our allies. They clearly took and are still taking steps against our interests and remain a hostile world power.

And they also tried to do the same in 2012 yet no outrage ? No big investigations ? Just *crickets*

I know that Stormfront has been shut down but I wish that its former denizens would find another forum to infest. Seems like every day it gets a little worse.

Give me a break ...
Refusing to accept facts does not make them false.

Here- I give you a break. You really need it to *********r head on straight. Please come back when you feel better.

Yes, current policies ensure the genocide of the white race. The governments enforcing those policies do not intend to ever end those policies. And you're in favor of those policies. You're a genocider.

Google and facebook admitted to taking illegal money from Russia? Can you quote this somewhere because that would mean they have to give the money back...

I'd like to sell their stocks short when they announce the money being returned..

Most of the 3,000 ads did not refer to particular candidates

touching on topics from LGBT matters to race issues to immigration to gun rights.”
Those topics sure sound like hot points for Democrats, not Republicans.. I wonder if when this is all done, Dems planted these ads in order to pretend trump was colluding. They sure did seem to know about them ahead of time..

We have only done this a couple of times. Shame on Russia!

The U.S. has a long history of attempting to influence presidential elections in other countries – it’s done so as many as 81 times between 1946 and 2000, according to a database amassed by political scientist Dov Levin of Carnegie Mellon University.

That number doesn’t include military coups and regime change efforts following the election of candidates the U.S. didn’t like, notably those in Iran, Guatemala and Chile. Nor does it include general assistance with the electoral process, such as election monitoring

Facebook ads? Wow! I am so glad we used our funds for this investigation. Whew, work well worth it!
The first thing I said to the people I was with when I heard the Russians may have meddled in the election or tried to was "SO WHAT"? We have been doing that for years. How many legitimate governments has the United States destabilized? In addition where was the outrage when Joe Kennedy fixed the election in Chicago, Michigan, Kansas and other parts of the Mid-west for JFK using the Mafia. It's all Bull. Trump is right it's a witch hunt. Trump ain't going nowhere.

No one cared when Obama had their security settings disabled on credit card charges during his first election, to allow overseas donations.... and they received lots of them, but now all of a sudden, the left has to act outraged, over something they cant even prove took place..

It's not just liberals saying it, morons. There's a reason why Republicans in Congress are investigating the Russian hacking as well as Democrats. It's a serious threat to democracies around the world. If you want to bury your collective no-nothing heads in the sand, go ahead, but you'll only continue to look like a bunch of fools.
