Glenn Greenwald: CIA and FBI probably intervened in election
CNN Politics ^ | March 11, 2017 | Alexandra King

Journalist and Intercept co-founder Glenn Greenwald said Saturday he believes both the CIA and FBI as well as Russia interfered in the US presidential election.

CNN's Michael Smerconish asked Greenwald whether he gave "any credence to the conspiracy theory" that the CIA, along with the Russians, had attempted to manipulate the results of the election, and the journalist replied simply that it "was probably both."

And he asserted the FBI had also played a part.

"I also think the FBI clearly sided with Donald Trump and did a lot of damaging leaks on purpose to hurt Hillary Clinton," he added, an apparent reference to the bureau's handling of the investigation into Clinton's email....

Whattup, Shaniqua?

If anyone you know really thinks the FBI or CIA or Russians interfered in the 2016 election, ask them what they think these people did to prevent Hillary Clinton from spending a single day campaigning in Wisconsin?

It’s looking like all the “Russians did it” was the CIA all along.

Whattup?

I’ve asked that of people in the days immediately following the election, specifically about Wisconsin. They don’t really believe it was hacked; they know she was horrible...

The Clinton Foundation received tens of millions of dollars from Saudi Arabia and other muslim nations. I believe they influenced our election far more than the Russians.

The demos are pointing the finger at Russia but last I recall, 15 of the 19 that flew planes into the World Trade Center towers were from Saudi Arabia. They were all muzzies.

Lock her up!!!

"If there's any Justice in the world, the Democrats and their ilk will be relegated to minority status for decades to come... "

I'd like to see both political parties relegated to minority status with a new political party "The Trumpist Party" dominating the electoral landscape. Everyone who came here after 1965 would be deported (after paying a huge fine).

The Democrats were in power and two government agencies intervened to elect the Republican?

I’m thinking Trump found out that Federal Attorney Preetinder Singh “Preet” Bharara had his hands in on the deal.

LOL, without even reading the article, I have a strong suspicion that even though the authors feel VERY strongly that the Russians, CIA, and FBI were involved, they don’t understand at all how right they probably are and not in a way they are going to desire.

There is a deep seated Russophobia in some sectors of the US Govt that I don’t completely understand. This is what has driven the color revolutions, the demonization of Putin, and the rioting on the Maidan in Ukraine.

I have questions about what the motivations are, and who the players are behind the scenes that have pushed this agenda.

I am not sure that Hillary is driving this— or whether she is just mouthing the proper sentiments to curry favor with the bureaucrats and globalists who see Russia as a major impediment to their future plans.
