So they are saying the the intelligence community has concluded that " Russian President Vladimir Putin was trying to help Donald Trump win the 2016 election". Show me a document that says that.

How dare those wascally Republicans tell us there was no Trump collusion with Russia!

How they call the intelligence community analyst liars!

Never mind that not a single shred of evidence exists to support that opinion.

They must be talking about the partisan hacks from the Obama Administration....John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, etc.

Oh, it’s CNN. Never mind.

"Partisan hacks" is too nice.

Anti-American treasonous traitors is more descriptive.

We also assess Putin and the Russian Government aspired to help President-elect Trump's election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary Clinton and publicly contrasting her unfavorably to him. All three agencies agree with this judgment. CIA and FBI have high confidence in this judgment; NSA has moderate confidence.

Granted, this does not ascribe the aspiration personally to Putin.

I’d love to see President Trump when its all over sue the Mueller, FBI, NSA, CIA, et al, for the mental anguish this has put him and his family and administration through and for recovery do legal fees for all who had to spend their money on defense lawyers.

I did not know that, thanks for enlightening me. Still the credibility of these agencies has been destroyed. I believe they are totally corrupt, from top to bottom. But combined with the establishment and msm, they can pretty much do what they want. They have made it clear, if you enter leadership from the outside, you, your family and supporters will be destroyed.

I agree that the agency credibility is shot. In this case by a handful of people who "made the asssessment," then spun up a yarn implying the assessment was the product of objective review by a substantial number of qualified people.

I also agree that the institutions are corrupt. There may be a few good people in them, but I believe most of those are in for self-serving reasons - great benefits, easy work, job security. If they rat out the rot, they lose.

CNN sides with intelligence community on Russia...and everything else, so long as it suits their anti-Trump agenda.

Of course, they weren’t such big fans of the Intelligence Community vis-a-vis the invasion of Iraq.
