bviously our intelligence community has proof or they wouldn't have stated it.
Actually, the FBI has said there isn't any proof and that basically the CIA is working on conjecture.

It's so funny to see democrats as being such big believers in the CIA after decades of being the object of their most intense scorn

This.
I hope people understand the reasons why both agencies see the same/similar evidence yet reach different conclusions.
The FBI is an investigative agency that relies on evidence to prove assertions with very high thresholds of certainty.
CIA, being an intelligence agency acts on speculative hunches or probabilities. They don't have to prove anything. Ever. They persuade through intelligence briefings for the purpose of communicating observations and possible motives.
One agency operates with a focus on proof. The other doesn't.
