Do you remember when obama came out a few weeks ago and said there was no reason to doubt the election results?

Yea... and? I just think he wants an investigative report on how Russia attempted to influence the election? I don't think he is questioning the results.
There's been no added revelations since that point. How does this story become news?

I thought you only cared if it's against the GOP or for the liberals/democrats. If the news is about the GOP where it doesn't show them in a negative light, you generally don't care/don't comment on it.

Thanks for your inaccurate, amusing analysis. It was a quick laugh, but a laugh nonetheless.

Not sure if this is legit but I'm hearing from people (trying to figure out the source of this info to find out if it's legit) it the ODNI (the guys who oversee all intel in the country) is not endorsing the CIA's claims because there's no evidence.

Again, I'm just hearing this, trying to find a source that doesn't sound conspiracy theory, but I just wanna drop this here for discussion sake

Much better than the Godwin attempts I've seen of Trump's Time cover. Speaking of which....



Obama's had a picture of him in a suit and looking in the same direction as one of Hitler's photographs. Can't be a coincidence.

The ODNI and Homeland Security released a statement in October about this.

Joint Statement from the Department Of Homeland Security and Office of the Director of National Intelligence on Election Security said:
Release Date: October 7, 2016

The U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including from US political organizations. The recent disclosures of alleged hacked e-mails on sites like DCLeaks.com and WikiLeaks and by the Guccifer 2.0 online persona are consistent with the methods and motivations of Russian-directed efforts. These thefts and disclosures are intended to interfere with the US election process. Such activity is not new to Moscow—the Russians have used similar tactics and techniques across Europe and Eurasia, for example, to influence public opinion there. We believe, based on the scope and sensitivity of these efforts, that only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized these activities.

Some states have also recently seen scanning and probing of their election-related systems, which in most cases originated from servers operated by a Russian company. However, we are not now in a position to attribute this activity to the Russian Government. The USIC and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) *** that it would be extremely difficult for someone, including a nation-state actor, to alter actual ballot counts or election results by cyber attack or intrusion. This assessment is based on the decentralized nature of our election system in this country and the number of protections state and local election officials have in place. States ensure that voting machines are not connected to the Internet, and there are numerous checks and balances as well as extensive oversight at multiple levels built into our election process.

Nevertheless, DHS continues to urge state and local election officials to be vigilant and seek cybersecurity assistance from DHS. A number of states have already done so. DHS is providing several services to state and local election officials to assist in their cybersecurity. These services include cyber “hygiene” scans of Internet-facing systems, risk and vulnerability assessments, information sharing about cyber incidents, and best practices for securing voter registration databases and addressing potential cyber threats. DHS has convened an Election Infrastructure Cybersecurity Working Group with experts across all levels of government to raise awareness of cybersecurity risks potentially affecting election infrastructure and the elections process. Secretary Johnson and DHS officials are working directly with the National Association of Secretaries of State to offer assistance, share information, and provide additional resources to state and local officials.

None of this is new information. Most of what is being discussed was talked about before election day in November.

However, depending on how the information was obtained we may not see their evidence until it is declassified in 60 years, if ever.

There is nothing going on. The CIA and FBI agree that the Russians hacked the DNC during the election. They don't agree on their motives.

The joke in my post is in reference to the groups who claimed responsibility. Just look up "Fancy Bear" and "Cozy Bear".
But be careful if you go to their websites.
