'Why didn't they do something?' Furious Trump lashes out against the 'Deep State' and blames Obama for failing to act in 2016 following the indictment of 12 Russian agents for hacking operation that targeted Hillary and the DNC

President Trump tweeted from Scotland about Friday's stunning indictments

Justice Department charged 12 Russians with conspiring to influence election

Accused of hacking Democratic Party and Clinton emails then releasing them

Accessed emails by creating fake profiles and paid for the efforts with bitcoin

One hack happened same day Trump asked Russians to 'look at Clinton's emails'

President Trump responded to the stunning indictment of 12 Russians for hacking the 2016 election by blasting the 'Deep State' and blaming President Obama for efforts the authorities say were meant to muddy his own rival Hillary Clinton.

It was the first word from Trump on the subject since Deputy AG Rosenstein, part of the Mueller team, announced the indictments just as Trump was meeting with Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle.

'The stories you heard about the 12 Russians yesterday took place during the Obama Administration, not the Trump Administration,' Trump tweeted from his golf course in Turnberry, Scotland.

'Why didn't they do something about it, especially when it was reported that President Obama was informed by the FBI in September, before the Election?'

In another tweet, Trump asked: 'Where is the DNC Server, and why didn't the FBI take possession of it? Deep State?’

The ‘Deep State’ is a conspiracy theory that suggests high-level officials run a shadow government working against Trump.

Fired former FBI Director James Comey testified in January that the agency never gained access to the physical servers but were given the necessary data by the security firm CrowdStrike, which he said was an ‘appropriate substitute’.

Because it’s complete fiction, nothing but a black cop to undermine him at the election. It’s a modern CIA FBI version of the JFK assassination.

“Goes back to the question who is really running the government....”

That’s basically it. None of these dozen-odd people around the President, or even Biden...had clear leadership points in their life to look over this, prioritize, and assess the best foot forward. So they choose to do as little as possible.

But I also think that the Russians may have laid out breadcrumbs, and this might be an episode where they want the 12 to have charges, then actually show up and dump a bunch of facts on the table that Mueller, Sessions, the judge, and the DNC....can’t handle.

Because none of it happened. This was simply a method by which they could claim Trump was corrupt and in bed with foreigners. A complete Fiction made by British intelligence and America’s intelligence agencies conducting their normal treasonous activities.

It seems like I read somewhere in the news that our government was proficient in making hacks appear like they came from places like Russia when they were done by the USA.
Does anyone else remember this?

Total BS. Their story is as tortured as the Warren commissions after the intel community murdered JFK.

How come Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort dont get to choose thier own personal computer company to examine their computer files? No, instead they have armed swat teams fron the FBI confiscating all thier files and conputers!

Wikileaks Julian Assange has already said it was not the Russians.

Assange also warned that there are many break-in incidents where the perpetrators may deliberately leave fake data that make it seem like it was done by Russians.

Snowden disclosed that the NSA could fake hacks from Russia, China, North Korea, Iran or anyone they wanted to--it is clear that no claims of foreign hacking can be validated by reasonable people who don't have an axe to grind.

But, Trump is being unfair to Obama and the Deep State when he says they didn't act.

They determined where the real leak came from and took Executive Action--they murdered the perp.

His name was Seth Rich. :-(

CrowdStrike was an intermediate in the server issue. Chain of custody was destroyed once CrowdStrike intervened. Anything relying on information from CrowdStrike is contaminated.

Because they were too busy writing checks and giving away uranium and it played along with their plan to destroy America.

Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, tweeted on Friday that it was time to end Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the election since 'no Americans are involved' in the indictment
