The US is rapidly becoming the laughing stock of the rest of the world.
Well, we are trying to deal with it, but you Canadians could be more helpful and agree to take some liberal refugees. They'll only take the barista jobs Canadians don't want.
Citing anonymous officials briefed on the issue, the Post says the CIA shared its findings with senators in a closed-door briefing last week, saying it was now "quite clear" that Russia's goal was to tip the presidency in Trump's favor:
" 'It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia's goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,' said a senior U.S. official briefed on an intelligence presentation made to U.S. senators. 'That's the consensus view.' "
U.S. officials," the Post reports. "Those officials described the individuals as actors known to the intelligence community and part of a wider Russian operation to boost Trump and hurt Clinton's chances."

Trump legitimately won the election. The polls cannot be hacked because none were connected to any servers.
The DNC is grasping on straws at this point.
"Recount!"
"Fake news!"
"Russian Hackers"
You LOST. Your candidate is a lying criminal that belongs in jail. Go somewhere and sit down!
Romney said in the Presidential debates that Russia was America's greatest geopolitical foe.....and Obama laughed at him saying Romney was living in the 80s. Romney got the last laugh.
Yes, it's the Russians that caused 60% of the votes in Detroit to have to be discarded in the recount because of signs of fraud. Yep, it was Putin that had to order the Michigan recount to be stopped to prevent more election fraud from be exposed.
Not a single WikiLeaks email has been denied as untrue by the Dems. You'd think the Libs would be more upset at the content of those emails: Dems hiring people to disrupt Trump rallies, news outlets feeding debate questions to candidate Hillary, sinking Bernie's campaign with unfair practices by the DNC, etc.

People who say they've read the emails but see nothing proving anything, are lying, too stupid to understand, or they simply do not care. So what are they - dishonest, stupid, or in favor of corruption?
Only a couple people here stated they were going to vote for Hillary but the leaked emails had them concerned.
They don't even care that she perjured herself. It doesn't matter. She could appear on live television and drown puppies and they'd either say it was cgi, or declare the puppies were dying and she was brave to put them out of their misery.
An American President elect throwing the CIA under the bus in order to defend a foreign leader? What in God's name is going in our country when this happens? How is that not traitorous?
Yep. Of course they did. There was evidence of this beforehand. And once again, the Democratic Party is doing nothing about it.
We now have foreign countries choosing our leaders. My 9th grade civics teacher once explained to us that a foreign country wouldn't gain control of us by marching in and physically taking over through military use. No...it would instead put plants in place, in political and other offices of power. Trump is not the only one who favors Russia and owes it a debt. There are others in his cabinet. Trump desperately wants to do business in Russia. This was well known and reported during his campaign. Was anyone listening? If so, did they care so little about the country that all they cared about was they get their pony? A cut in taxes, maybe? Less regulation so they can make more billions? Their next door neighbor being deported (which isn't gonna happen)?
Actually there will, in fact, be a thorough bipartisan investigation into the Russian interference with the election.
Don't forget, the Trump campaign was in contact with the Russians during the campaign. This totally deserves a thorough investigation.
"...The Russian government maintained contacts with members of Donald J. Trump’s “immediate entourage” during the American presidential campaign, one of Russia’s top diplomats said Thursday.“There were contacts,” Sergei A. Ryabkov, the deputy foreign minister, was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency. “We continue to do this and have been doing this work during the election campaign,” he said..."

This is not a matter for the DNC. This is now an official matter for the U.S. Government. The CIA is part of the U.S. Government in case you didn't know.
Trump won the election, not going to disagree. But it is terribly short sighted and unwise to just dismiss the Russian attempt to interfere in our election.
In the short run Putin may be happy to see Trump in the White House; however, in the long-run the Russians could be up to do much worse. And to be sure, Republican elected officials could end up the target next time.
All Americans should concerned about this. Can we take off our p-h-u-c-k-I-n-g partisan hats off for a second. It used to be that politics stopped at the water's edge.

According to a CIA report Russia intervened in the US presidential election in favor of Trump. What do you think I question the legitimacy of this election a foreign power has interfered in the U.S. election process. Should we re-vote for president?
