Even if that report is true, Russia is not off the hook. They hacked the state election offices and one company that makes voting machines. No one disputes that.
Who wants to get Russia off the hook? I don't want anyone from anywhere hacking anything. The point is that the fake news media have been lying their butts off for the last nine months to hurt our President and our nation.
And the lies have been pushing us toward war with Russia.

The data transfer rate from the alleged hack of the DNC server was 22.7 megabytes per second. No ISP has that kind of speed, the top speed is around 16 megabytes per second.
However, that speed can be achieved when using a thumb drive.
This isn't 2006 anymore, the internet has gotten faster.....
The British intelligence turned out to be GCHQ which happened to be spying on Trump in 2015 also. They were trying to build a case against Trump on the basis of ties to Russia.
What does trump and Russia have to do with British security? No legitimate reason for them to spy on trump. No legitimate reason for GCHQ even getting 2nd hand info from other spy agencies since that isn't normally shared.

There are a lot of credibility problems on the Russia hack case that were brought up before.
It wasn't a misrepresentation, it was a politically motivated lie. From the get go. The other agencies didn't get on board. The knew it was political since there was no physical evidence.
The CIA, the National Security Agency, the F.B.I. and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence all determined that Russia hacked the presidential election. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/06/u...a-fbi-nsa.html
And even Donald Trump’s top intelligence officials accept the conclusion that Russia hacked the election. Trump
And according to other sources your source is "neither conclusive proof nor strong evidence. It’s a extremely long-winded product of a crank."
Your source lists "an anonymous analyst calling himself “Forensicator,” on the “metadata” of “locked files” leaked by the hacker Guccifer 2.0.This should, already, set off alarm bells: An anonymous analyst is claiming to have analyzed the “metadata” of “locked files” that only this analyst had access to?"
"The crux of the whole thing — the opening argument — rests on the fact that, according to “metadata,” the data was transferred at about 22 megabytes per second... Most households don’t get internet speeds that high, but enterprise operations, like the DNC — or, uh, the FSB — would have access to a higher but certainly not unattainable speed like that. If that’s your strongest evidence, your argument is already in trouble."
You link to the NYT article falsely claiming 17 intelligence agencies agreed.
Yeah, maybe he should link to the article where the NY Times itself admits that the claim that "17 intelligence agencies agreed" was bogus. As Seymour Hersh said, to paraphrase: "The Coast Guard? The Air Force? AYFKM?"
Expert witnesses don't lie because then they lose their credibility and their livelihood.
Correct. I get called to testify as an expert witness about a dozen times a year. Getting caught lying, is the death of your business as an investigator.
You link to the NYT article falsely claiming 17 intelligence agencies agreed.
My source states,
"The Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, the F.B.I. and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, all of which determined that Russia interfered in the election. Their work was compiled into a report, and a declassified version was released on Jan. 6 by the director of national intelligence. It said that all four agencies had “high confidence” that Russian spies had tried to interfere in the election on the orders of President Vladimir V. Putin."
"The reason the views of only those four intelligence agencies, not all 17, were included in the assessment is simple: They were the ones tracking and analyzing the Russian campaign. The rest were doing other work."
"The intelligence community is a sprawling enterprise that includes military officers who track enemy troop movements, accountants who analyze the finances of Islamist militants and engineers who design spy satellites. There are soldiers, sailors and Marines; tens of thousands of civilian government employees and tens of thousands of private contractors" (and only 4 of the many intelligence agencies were responsible for investigating the Russian election interference.)
My source did not falsely claim 17 intelligence agencies agreed, rather people like Donald Trump manipulate this situation by saying "only three or four of the United States’ 17 intelligence agencies had concluded that Russia interfered in the presidential election."
And "while (Trumps statement is) technically accurate, (it) is misleading and suggests widespread dissent among American intelligence agencies when none has emerged."
Manipulating or misinformed statements like Trumps cause people to believe that Russians did not hack the election, and that allegations of Russian hacking are a lie.
But reality is the US governments intelligence network and Donald Trumps own top intelligence officials believe that Russians hacked the 2016 presidential election.
The British intelligence turned out to be GCHQ which happened to be spying on Trump in 2015 also. They were trying to build a case against Trump on the basis of ties to Russia.
So you're saying the UK interfered in the election?
