This ought to be good.

Mark your calendars. Wikileaks will hold a press conference Monday at 9 AM Eastern to respond to the CIA report this week on Russian interference in the US elections.

ANNOUNCE: WikiLeaks press conf, Monday 9am ET streamed live responding to CIA report on WikiLeaks

Background: https://t.co/cV1dpsfM3L

— WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) January 7, 2017

According to an article overnight from Sputniknews.com regarding the highly-anticipated declassified US intelligence report information included in the report was published in 2012. The intelligence report was supposed to prove that Russia supported Donald Trump in the recent US election for President,

The annex in the [declassified] report contained so-called evidence from Russia Today (RT) that was compiled in December 2012, right after the reelection of Barack Obama.

The report focuses on television shows and interviews that took place four years before Trump was elected, and well before he was even a politician.

In Annex A of the report, intelligence agencies claim that “Kremlin’s TV Seeks To Influence Politics, Fuel Discontent in US.” Buried at the bottom of that page is a note stating, “This annex was originally published on 11 December 2012 by the Open Source Center, now the Open Source Enterprise.”

Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections Intelligence Report the report notes that two RT shows, ‘Breaking the Set’ and ‘Truthseeker’ focused on criticism of US. The problem is, both of these shows were off air before the 2016 election season began.

"Monday at 9 AM Eastern"

It's almost 11 AM Eastern now - is this supposed to be today, or next Monday?

"The report focuses on television shows and interviews that took place four years before Trump was elected."

I remember the report referenced Occupy Wall Street and anti-fracking stories, which do sound a few years old.

I was also struck by the fact that most of the Russian propaganda that was cited sounded like it could have come from the American left, from our own college campuses and news organizations.

"the Israeli government's delight at Trump's victory"

For months, the MSM told us Trump was an anti-Semite, yet somehow Israel prefers Trump to Clinton. That "somehow" boils down to the fact that Trump is NOT an anti-Semite, and supports Israel's right to exist. Obama, on the other hand, recently broke with decades of pro-Israel policy, and often defends those who want to take Israel off the map.

Now, you can say that opposing certain Israeli poliicies doesn't make you anti-Semitic, but I don't think you can say that an anti-Semite would support Israel under any circumstances.

So, once again, the MSM narrative has been relentless FAKE NEWS,

"Britain Invests Billions in Cybersecurity in Face of Russian Threat"

From your link, this story was dated November 8th, 2016. Given the fact that Russia, China, and other governments have long been known to be engaging in serious hacking efforts, and have often succeeded in penetrating federal databases, why is the alleged hack of the DNC suddenly a motive for massive ramping-up of anti-hacking efforts? It doesn't make sense.

This whole frenzy has the feel of a disinformation campaign whose motives are other than the stated ones.

To tell the truth, I have not been comfortable with the CIA for decades. I resent the fact that - as an American - I have often been surprised and embarrassed by their actions both here and abroad. To cite just one example, the whole Valerie Plame affair sent a signal that there is deep and ugly politicization in the agency.

>>it doesn't make sense.

I think making sense of the present landscape requires observing it in the context of the past 55+ years.

Eisenhower tried to warn us.  And here we are.

The Lying Leftist MSM is anti-Semitic.

I don’t believe a freaking word they say. They speak 180 degrees from the truth. If you don’t know anything else and take the opposite of what the Lying Left says, you’ll probably be close to the truth most of the time.

No thread that I can find. And I didn’t learn much.

But ...

1. The Report states that the Russians plans to interfere in the election were formulated in 2015, a time will before the Rise of Trump, the Serious Contender.

2. Assange was asked how he can be certain that he was not dealing with a third party secretly controlled by the Russians. This is The Key Question. He declined to answer. He does not want to give out any clues as to his source.

Even the Brits and Canadians do better reporting US news.
