Uh oh: Trump sent Pompeo to investigate whether DNC hack was "inside job."

CIA DIRECTOR MIKE Pompeo met late last month with a former U.S. intelligence official who has become an advocate for a disputed theory that the theft of the Democratic National Committee’s emails during the 2016 presidential campaign was an inside job, rather than a hack by Russian intelligence.
quote:
Pompeo met on October 24 with William Binney, a former National Security Agency official-turned-whistleblower who co-authored an analysispublished by a group of former intelligence officials that challenges the U.S. intelligence community’s official assessment that Russian intelligence was behind last year’s theft of data from DNC computers. Binney and the other former officials argue that the DNC data was “leaked,” not hacked, “by a person with physical access” to the DNC’s computer system.
In an interview with The Intercept, Binney said Pompeo told him that President Donald Trump had urged the CIA director to meet with Binney to discuss his assessment that the DNC data theft was an inside job.
quote:
Binney said that Pompeo asked whether he would be willing to meet with NSA and FBI officials to further discuss his analysis of the DNC data theft. Binney agreed and said Pompeo said he would contact him when he had arranged the meetings.
It is highly unorthodox for the CIA director to reach out to someone like Binney, a 74-year-old ex-government employee who rose to prominence as an NSA whistleblower wrongfully persecuted by the government, for help with fact-finding related to the theft of the DNC emails. It is particularly stunning that Pompeo would meet with Binney at Trump’s apparent urging, in what could be seen as an effort to discredit the U.S. intelligence community’s own assessment that an alleged Russian hack of the DNC servers was part of an effort to help Trump win the presidency.

Haha but wait... our intelligence community is sooo freaking smart they KNOW that the russian hacked the server without even looking at it!
On the other hand the Seth Rich crazy tin foil hat wearing crowd point out the time stamp on all of the LEAKED files indicate that they could not have been transmitted that fast across the DNC's internet connection.
Hmmmm... who to believe... hmmmm... who to trust.
Why wouldn't the DNC allow the server to be examined by the FBI? We have been hearing about Russia Russia Russia for a year now and the DNC doesn't want to allow the FBI to prove it?

Christopher Hayes: "I'm pretty sure investigating an opposing political party is an impeachable offense."

Didn't his spokesman confirm that he stands behind the intelligence reports? Binney ain't had the goods

Do you really expect them to broadcast it if he didn't?

Maybe its something i've overlooked, but why can't the Awan brothers be people of interest here. They were the I.T. guys that had access to all of it and allegedly siphoned off data to off premise locations (Unauthorized). Either way, it's easy to point fingers internally if it's Hillary letting it out or the Awans or Seth Rich.

Still pretty fricked up for Pompeo to entertain then follow through on this.
Been looking like Pompeo is too political for this job.
