Brennan, Comey and Clapper, the three 0bama stooges.

The only “evidence” I’ve seen is that some Russians paid for some ineffective and poorly done facebook ads, and organized a few sparsely attended rallies.

Meddle sounds more like changed the election outcome. They are never specific since it is so insignificant. This is a Clinton generated fake scandal.

The obvious question, if the intelligence agencies knew, then why the hell didn’t they do anything about it with Obama?

The Russians meddled in trying to prevent the Dakota Access Pipeline, too, but to no avail...

They’re referring to Comey briefing Trump on Jan 6, 2017, 2 weeks before Inauguration day.

Not that Comey or Brennan was very believable by that time...

Is it soooooooooo important that Trump knew? Really?

Why can’t the liberals admit the U.S. (particularly odumbo) has been meddling in foreign country elections forever.

Ask yourself why the Russians gave Hitlary $400,000,000.00
How come that isn’t on the front page every day?

From the moment I heard Obama publicly order that report I was suspicious that he was up to no good. Obviously he had a bigger plan. Do you think he and his minions intended to dovetail it with the fake dossier all along?

Ray McGovern is well documented on FR from the Scooter Libby frameup, he’s not just Lyndon LaRouche but also leftist that runs with Russian disinfo at least since 2003, with Iran apologist Medea Benjamin of Code Pink, Dan Ellesberg of TTP- partly responsible for helping North Vietnam take the South , Amb Joe Wilson/Valerie Plame, NCPPF, CAIR, Beat Back the Bush Regime, etc... hardly the sort of individual I’d get info from. Same goes for Kiriakou, Sid Blumenthal’s and Cody Shearer’s associate the late Tyler Drumheller.

When they talk about Russian meddling they’re talking about this very disinformation network whose goal is to subvert our intelligence agencies and leave us as blind as we were in the 70s that set all this middle east crap rolling.

This is like the “bombshell” from the 9/11 hearings in which it was reveled that the US knew Bin Laden was determined to attack targets in the US! I can still hear the gasps of the “Jersey Girls” when Condoleeza Rice read that at the hearing.

That is one of the unavoidable conclusions in my e-book.

See my vanity post forthcoming, however.

And he knew that Obama bugged Merkels phones, and interfered with Israel’s election.

So what.

Meddle? Or, influence? And, at that time, who was president and therefore responsible?

CIA Director John Brennan, then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and then-National Security Director Adm. Michael Rogers. Notice who gave the briefing on cyber attacks which all happen when Obama and these clowns were in charge and did nothing. These people were not concerned about Russia they were spending 100% of their time trying to get Clinton elected and stop Trump then after the election trying to impeach him. There are the people under Obama who are responsible for ant Russian interference not Trump. Yet now trump like all the other crap they left he has to try to clean it up.

Wait... this means that the sitting President at that time, Democrat Barack Obama, knew all about it.

And Obama did nothing.

Which makes Obama a traitor, by the Democrats’ own admission...
