The real scandal here is that classified information is illegally given out by "intelligence" like candy. Very un-American!

It's unbelievably stupid to compare this to the Benghazi attack, but not surprising coming from a resident retard.

Ambassador getting tortured and murdered = NSA chief lying to the VP.

They can't.

They have no facts. None. Zilch.

At least we know for a fact that Hillary used an insecure personal email server to communicate classified information.

At least we know for a fact that Hillary deleted approximately 33,000 emails after she was told not to do so by the FBI.

Would you believe me if I told you your wife was cheating on you? No you wouldn't. The first thing you would ask, "you got any proof?"

At this point, we have an insinuation without proof.

I guess it depends on how you want to define "hacking the election." Here's a pretty good article, with named sources, on the "hacking."

Esquire

A better way to put it is Russia ran an influence campaign. 3 people now that at different times worked for Trump have been confirmed to have ties to the Russian government and Russian businesses - Paul Manafort, Carter Page, and Mike Flynn. And that doesn't even mention Rex Tillerson's massive deal in Russia that was held up over Obama sanctions on Russia.

You want...to go investigate how the leaks occurred...and NOT the actual information....that was leaked?

We are fricking doomed.

It's funny how Obama's Russian sanctions came right after Trump won the election.

And what laws were broken?

I mean, Obama met with the newly designated terrorist organization The Muslim Brotherhood in the white house on several occasions.



Just an FYI, world leaders and their colleagues meet with all kinds of other world leaders and their colleagues.

I'm on the edge of my seat here trying to figure out what the actual information that was leaked.

At this moment the alt-left including the alt-left media are melting down over the accusation of leaked information and we don't even know what the content of the information is/was. I want to know. Why is the alt-left in a tizzy? It must be some really important information.

In an earlier post you ranted and raved over unnamed sources, and now you want to know what was leaked? Maybe go back and read some of the articles that got in your craw over unnamed or anonymous sources. What they've said are the leaks.


FYI, leaks are almost always by unnamed or anonymous sources. That's why they're called leaks.

What a bullshite post. This illustrates my point.

1)Russia ran an influence campaign? OK. So what. They are a foreign government that does that kind of shite. So are we. We do it all the time to other countries. I don't like it. I'm not happy about it. But it is common place around the world.

2) Three people had ties to Russia: Manafort and Page are private citizens that both worked briefly in the campaign and never worked in the administration. Millions of Americans have ties to Russia. We have a global economy. There is nothing inherently wrong or illegal about working with either the Russian government or Russian business. If these two broke laws, then they should be punished for it. Absent that, these "Russian ties" are bullshite.

3) Tillerson? Give me a fricking break. He is a well known businessman that has been vetted and approved by congress. And you mean "Exxon's deal" not "Tillerson's deal." I'm sure that was just a typo and not purposeful deception. Tillerson doesn't work for Exxon and has divested his stock.

So, basically there is nothing except a false boogeyman.
