A senior US official says that the WikiLeaks documents do contain authentic information about CIA hacking techniques, NBC News reported.

The report also quotes US intelligence sources as saying that the Russian government is believed to be behind the revelations.

So, the CIA is saying they didn't leak the documents, but the Russians completely owned the CIA from the outside that they got every sensitive item, and then the Russians leaked it to Wikileaks to leak to the world?

I don't begin to believe this.

It’s starting to become obvious why Obama’s “intelligence community” didn’t want PRESIDENT Trump and his boys in there pooping and snooping around. Sessions needs to get off his ass and get with the program or get out of the way and let someone else do the job.

I guess the CIA needs a villain.

The Russians aren’t our greatest threat. It’s from the muzzie world that’s our greatest threat. It just wouldn’t be very politically correct to say that muzzie extremists should be the villain.

So I guess we’ve got to blame the Russians.

The CIA must be really incompetent. Or they just have so many hackers hacking that they can’t keep a secret.

What complete drivel. If the Russians had obtained this information they would have never informed ANYONE. They would have used it against us.

If the Russians managed to penetrate the CIA to this extent, the last thing they would do is share all the stolen secrets with the world. They would instead keep them to themselves, learn from them and hold onto whatever advantage they could for as long as possible.

Yeah. It seems like we should hire some Russians for the CIA.

Did anyone note the irony today of the leftists celebrating a RUSSIAN HOLIDAY?

International Women’s Day began in Russia and was a Soviet-era holiday.

To this day women in the former Soviet states expect gifts. It’s bigger than Valentine’s for them.

Soros spends $250 million on funding various groups to promote a celebration of it - and the wearing of red in solidarity.

MSM doesn’t mention the connection.

But I guess that was when Russians were the good guys. You know, Lenin and Stalin.

During Civil War Russia was an ally of The Union.
This might be the second time Russia helped.

It took them, what? A day to come up with this complete b.s.?

CNN didn’t report the leaks until 4 hours after Wikileaks posted it. Fox had it as the cover story immediately.

CNN waiting for someone to write their stories for them?
