Trump Says He Has New Information About Alleged Russian Hacking

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has said he has unrevealed information about alleged Russian hacking during the presidential election that he plans to present next week.

Speaking briefly to reporters on his way to a New Year’s party in the U.S. state of Florida, Trump responded to a query about the alleged hacking by saying: “I know things that other people don’t know” and “you will find out on Tuesday or Wednesday [January 3 or 4].”

He also said that he still believes the hacking of emails of U.S. Democratic Party officials could have been carried out by “somebody else” other than Russia. He said he knows a lot about computer hacking and that it’s “a very hard thing to prove.”

Last week, the U.S. government expelled 35 Russian diplomats and imposed sanctions against Russian security officials and agencies over the alleged hacking. U.S. intelligence agencies have said they believe Moscow ordered the hacking in order to help Trump win the election....

I wonder if Russia or Israel supplied Trump with some intel.

Do you mean like a professionally written cyber-security report to contrast with 0bama's?

DemRATs were so certain they would win the election that they ignored the unsecured data issue until clinton lost.

Like Henry Kissinger said, it doesn’t make sense why the Russians would hack the election. What is the purpose? If Hillary won all they would have to do is pay her off and they could do anything they want so you would *think* they would want her to win. If Trump wins, they wont have that advantage of corruption at that extent, it makes no sense. So like Sherlock Holmes would say, “eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth”.. The only hackers going on here are Democrats. Just like their fake racist attacks, they have also been creating fake hacking attacks.

Would blow my mind if Trump says Seth Rich might have done it.

Funny that "our" Intelligence Agencies act the same way.

What we need are some Intelligent Agencies...

Next Weeks Message from Trump:

“We found out that Hillary bribed the Russians to hack the election so she could win by giving them a huge share of US Uranium mining rights, AND SHE STILL LOST because the voting machines had better security than Hillary’s private server , the DNC servers, and John Podesta’s email account !”

Note, too, where this comes from.

Radio Free Europe.

Yes, we now need information from the Radio Free groups, because we are living in an occupied Soviet State.

The present agencies are in fact the “NEW” National Socialist gestapo.

I wrote an Op ED in a local newspaper the spring after the little man child was sworn in. I pointed out that the very agenda they were subscribing to was done successfully in Germany in the 1930s.

Take over the news media, take over the industrialists, take over the health care, take over the military-which they failed to do at the lower level. All they needed to do was take away our arms and it would have been completed nearly.

not just as he is tryign to claim, but the whole msm is tryign to claim it too- hell- even fox news is stating it too-

You are right- hacking emails is NOT the same as ballot stuffing, physically hacking local voting machines- suppressing voter turn out- busing in illegals- dead people voting, disney characters voting- etc etc etc-

There is absolutely zero proof that russia did any of that- but you can bet the msm will hammer on the lie that russia ‘hacked the election’ for 4 straight years— or longer-
