So, the Democrats claim that Ivan Drago hacked their e-mails to influence the election. But, what everyone in the media fails to acknowledge is that no one has ever claimed that a single one of the e-mails that were released were not authentic. And what did those e-mails disclose? That the DNC worked in concert with mainstream media to both ensure that Bernie Sanders would not win the Democratic nomination AND to influence the election with Donald Trump, among other things. Shouldn't they just be happy they aren't being arrested?

So, even if you take their ridiculous conspiracy theory seriously, it doesn't even matter. Shouldn't the media be happy that the truth came out? Which adds even more irony because they always claim that only the alt-right and wacky white supremacists believe in conspiracy theories.

Yeah I agree with Alex Jones' point yesterday that Trump should address this on Facebook live with the American people.

Wikileaks intention was likely to help Bernie Sanders by harming Clinton more than it was to help Trump.

Assange said as late as days before the election that Trump had no shot of winning - and Assange is certainly no fan of Trump.

Hillary Clinton has made a career out of this..

she can project her own failures and shady shite onto other people -- usually Republicans -- like nobody else in the game.

With a lapdog media willing to just make stuff up 24/7, then "retract" it at 2AM when proven wrong, they can paint whatever narrative they want

Yeah the media worked tirelessly to promote false narratives to destroy Trump, and did their best to downplay Wikileaks during the election.

So they are pissed that real news which may or may not have been released due to the Russians, may possibly have outweighed their fake news narrative.

There's no longer any room to believe that we have reconcilable differences of opinion. Progressives are out to destroy us as a people.

Their hypocrisy is definitely on full display.

"The 1980's called. They want their foreign policy back." Who said that? Hmm.

That a foreign power influenced a national election in the US? "Doesn't even matter"? I would disagree, it WOULD matter.

Why should they be happy about that? Is that supposed to be some kind of requirement of the media?

So let me get this correct.

The MSM is pissed because they believe that Russia was trying to do for Trump what they were doing for Hillary? And the Russians wore it better?



Yea sounds like a bunch of whining pussy arse liberals...

What does that even mean, "the MSM is pissed"?

Like, Time Warner? You think Time Warner is "pissed"?

...or do you think the shareholders of Time Warner are pissed?

It only provided proof about how rotten and dirty the DNC, Clinton campaign and Hillary herself were. Open your eyes man!

Are you admitting the emails contained information that showed Hillary was corrupt? That's a prettty big admission. I applaud you.

I didn't need that proof.

I've got bad news for you:

The RNC is just as dirty.

My point was that it would matter quite a lot to me if our elections were being influenced by a foreign power. I'm sorry if you don't think that's a big deal. But then, I don't really understand you globalists.

Why is it so hard for you people to understand what I wrote?

I said that I would think it was a very big deal if a foreign power influenced our election.

The whole rotten structure is corrupt, I don't find Hillary any more or less corrupt than most pols.

Is that a yes? If there wasn't anything showing her being corrupt...how could the emails have influenced the election?

You mean to tell me a politician is CORRUPT???/?

Why are you so hung up on this, while being seemingly unconcerned that a foreign power may have influenced our election?
