WoW! So there was never 17 Agencies which was parroted as fact for months by Trump Deranged, Democrats, other MSM outlets, and Democrats. It was all made up by the Mexican owned blog called the New York Times.

It's as bad as CNN.
The New York Times has finally admitted that one of the favorite Russia-gate canards – that all 17 U.S. intelligence agencies concurred on the assessment of Russian hacking of Democratic emails – is false.

Trump was proved right yet again.

Here it is, the update:
Quote:
A White House Memo article on Monday about President Trump’s deflections and denials about Russia referred incorrectly to the source of an intelligence assessment that said Russia orchestrated hacking attacks during last year’s presidential election. The assessment was made by four intelligence agencies — the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Agency. The assessment was not approved by all 17 organizations in the American intelligence community.
Heres a statement by clapper however:
Quote:
Director of National Intelligence James Clapper affirmed an Oct. 7 joint statement from 17 intelligence agencies that the Russian government directed the election interference — and went further.
"We stand more resolutely on that statement," Clapper said during a Senate Armed Services hearing with the intelligence chiefs into the politically charged issue.
So I am curious why they updated it?

And heres clapper later clarifying it:
FRANKEN: And I want to thank General Clapper and – and Attorney General Yates for – for appearing today. We have – the intelligence communities have concluded all 17 of them that Russia interfered with this election. And we all know how that’s right.
CLAPPER: Senator, as I pointed out in my statement Senator Franken, it was there were only three agencies that directly involved in this assessment plus my office…
FRANKEN: But all 17 signed on to that?
CLAPPER: Well, we didn’t go through that – that process, this was a special situation because of the time limits and my – what I knew to be to who could really contribute to this and the sensitivity of the situation, we decided it was a constant judgment to restrict it to those three. I’m not aware of anyone who dissented or – or disagreed when it came out.

Because it is all they have.

They can't accept that they lost the election, bigly.

So they have to make up nonsense about bogymen Russians.

So really the argument is that only the 3 biggest signed off, but all 17 were part of the process. yawn.

And nytimes reported what clapper said, and HE later updated it, then they updated.

So...a big nothingburger here.

There is no such entity as a New York Times which is owned by a Mexican. Are you hallucinating AGAIN, kitty? That seems to happen a lot. You should get that checked out.
