Testifying in front of the Senate Armed Services Committee Thursday morning, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper made it clear Russian hacking didn't change the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.

"They did not change any vote tallies or anything of that sort," Clapper stated.

I have never heard such unsubstantiated allegations of Russian hacking bull shit as I heard at that “hearing “ this morning including particularly the drivel by McCain. THEY HAVE NO PROOF!! When they were asked to put up or shut up they deferred to a report “coming out next week” that will be more meritless unsupported lies about Russia intended to be why the people put Trump in office!! That REPORT will not reveal any facts!! I promise you that. Were the initiating IP addresses of the kid that guessed the “PASSWORD” on podesta’s gmail account from the Russian GOVERNMENT or NOT?????? The Leader of the publisher,Wikileaks, said it was NOT THE RUSSIANS!!!Why would he lie???We owe the Russians a contrite apology!!Go TRUMP!

Trump is going to drain that swamp big time and on time. He is moving 50% out into the field where they ought to be and the real political hacks that he can’t fire, because they are civil servants, will man our new office in Point Barrow Alaska!! They want to blame Russia!! Up there they can keep a watchful eye and report in by dog sled mail delivery.

Send them to Little Diomede Island in the U.S., and they CAN watch the Russians on Big Diomede Island with their opera glasses.

The latest story is that they tried to affect the elections as "part of their other hacking efforts".

Bound and determined to find some way to make the Left the victims of a "vast Russian conspiracy"...

Seems to me this entire “hacking” affair is another there’s gambling in River City moment. Of course the Russians try to glean intel from us through cyberhacking. So does China. And Israel tries to gain it both from Russia and US. And the UK and the US do the same or at least I would hope so. So now we want to raise this activity to an “act of war” because some politicians want to sell the story line that many voters were swayed to vote for Trump by reading the e mails of some DNC hack like Podesta who was cynically sending e mails to his cohorts flakking identity politics. I think it would be more interesting if the congressional committee would produce the 2 or 3 voters in the US who actually changed their vote to Trump because of this “outrage” of a political operative behaving like a political operative.

Great new office for them!! We will know who they are very soon. That intelligence community is going to be massively reorganized and redirected to actual foreign intelligence and not its current assignment as propaganda agency. And then we turn to the FBI— Can’t wait!!

She didn’t. Probably 3 million+ votes of the dead or illegal aliens or forgotten ballots in someone’s trunk, turning up for Hillary. Mostly from California, but plenty from NYC, Philadelphia etc.

Clapper said that, but that won’t matter to Obama and the democrats who will continue to spout the democrat talking points.

I think you are mistaking him for Brennan, the head of Central Intelligence.

So, the hullabaloo is all about the dissemination of information, true and fake.

When has Russia EVER not done that?

Drain the swamp. Thank you Clapper for putting the intelligence community in Trump’s cross hairs. A lot of people are going to be looking for new jobs.
