An extraordinary breach has emerged between President-elect Donald J. Trump and the national security establishment, with Mr. Trump mocking American intelligence assessments that Russia interfered in the election on his behalf, and top Republicans vowing investigations into Kremlin activities.
On Saturday, intelligence officials said it was not until the week after the election that the C.I.A. altered its formal assessment of Russias activities to conclude that the government of President Vladimir V. Putin was not just trying to undermine the election, but had also acted to give one candidate an advantage.
Wary of being seen as politicizing their findings, C.I.A. analysts had been reluctant to come to that conclusion in the midst of the election even as many supporters of Hillary Clinton believed it was obvious, given the leak of emails from her campaign chairman and others.

Talk you darn Ruskie!!
Whoever thought we’d see the day where the NYTimes would be sympathetic to the CIA.
Guess the MILLIONS of dollars shillary and Bill received for selling us out wasn’t foreign involvement.
MSM never mentions all the kompromat the Russians have on Hillary.
But they’ve decided Putin stole the election for Trump.
What they don’t say is how he did it.
I think President Trump is warming up his zot machine.
That we couldn't offer concrete proof of this????
If there were any shred of proof this happened, or was happening, Bammy would have had his minions in the lsm shouting this every night.
So, just so we’re clear; Russia had Trump all figured out in August and The American MSM still hasn’t figured him out. Got it
The CIA long was doing gay pride celebrations before it became mainstream in America.
I strongly believe that the Federal is pushing its culture and likes and associations on us, telling us how to associate.
Essentially the CIA is much like liberals, another country of its own, and it views us with guns with snobishness and contempt, as virtual enemies.
The KGb coup in the CIA is obvious. It is catastrophic how they are penetrated by islam now, for instance, and islam is the premier religion of spies with imams not of the Koran but of foreign arab rulers.
The Cia is going CYA over the fact it has been completely penetrated by foreign terrorists and governments through a “multiculturalism” that is a from for foreign thought dependent operatives.
*that is a Front for foreign...
Russians were smart enough to steal the election without any one knowing.
Then how in the world does the CIA know it took place?
Dumbasses.
He should look to you for a few pointers on really effective Zotting.
I’m betting that some elements within CIA are going CYA to offset the reports from Steve R. Pieczenik, MD, PhD a few weeks before the election about how a cadre of intelligence professionals leaked the information to Wikileaks to prevent a coup by Hillary. Since we know the CIA and FBI are deeply divided, this makes perfect sense.
Did the Russkies truly hack the Soros voting machines? /s
“given the leak of emails from her campaign chairman and others.”
So the problem is not what was in those emails, which was loads of corruption and evil, but the fact that they were exposed? Yeah right.
It’s not like Russia directly hacked the vote counts themselves, or at least I haven’t seen that claim. What they did do is hack DNC information and release it to wiki and they were doing that as far back as the primaries. They also hacked RNC but kept it to themselves thus favoring Trump.
“...and top Republicans vowing investigations into Kremlin activities.”
Well, of course! The GOPe is still looking for a way to get Trump. It’s going to be fun to watch President Trump lay waste to the GOP “leadership” if they try to eff with him. On his best day, Mitch “scrotum neck” McConnell is no match for The Donald.
Take a look at the “repubicans” in this video:

Trying to explain that to the public would be counterproductive.
Aha, that would make sense. The CIA is very political.
