After today's news, I think the investigation should definitely continue. We now know Russians were spending money, 1.25 million a month, going back to 2014, trying to manipulate our elections. I think there is enough smoke around the Trump campaign to merit the investigation.

Our best hope is that Trump was unknowing during the whole thing. It's time Trump acknowledge's this as a problem.

You changed your mind based on what's released today?

Holy hell, its like someone changing their mind about Bigfoot not existing because a Bigfoot photo was just debunked...

Do you know how reality works?

He said foreign governments' meddling in our elections is a serious problem and it has to be stopped. He said that a long time ago.

Welcome back to the real world.

Should we investigate our own CIA for meddling in foreign elections?

Or Obama for openly supporting candidates in other countries? (See Macron and the guy who was running against Netanyahu)

Sorry. You had a year to find something. This isnt much of anything that we didnt already know.

Im more interested in inner America and its "influencing of elections".

Cool. I think there's enough smoke around the Clinton campaign to merit an investigation.

Let's have dueling investigations of both campaigns (and the DNC) to see what turns up on the Russian front.

A whopping $1.25 million to undermine elections in the most power nation on Earth? Pelosi spends that much on Botox.

Of course not, we should encourage the CIA to continue covert operations. But once the covert comes into the open the US Government gains the rights to pursue in the open. This actually gives us an advantage over Russia. We now have justification to sanction Russia and to screw them publicly.

The cold war never ended, we need to screw Putin.

Probably less than what this "oh so very Special" Council investigation is costing us.
