SCHUMER: Report's of Russia's Interference In The Election Should Shake Us To The Core

SCHUMER: Report's of Russia's Interference In The Election Should Shake Us To The Core Akin Oyedele.

Incoming Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Saturday that he and Republican colleagues would call for a congressional investigation into Russia's reported involvement in the election.

The Washington Post and The New York Times reported Friday that a secret CIA presentation shown to lawmakers revealed that the Russian government interfered with the election to try to help President-elect Donald Trump win.

According to the Post, intelligence officials identified people with connections to the Russian government who they say handed thousands of hacked emails and other documents to WikiLeaks.

"Reports of the CIA’s conclusion that Russia actively sought to help elect Donald Trump are simultaneously stunning and not surprising, given Russia’s disdain for democracy and admiration for autocracy," Schumer said in a statement Saturday.

Before the election, WikiLeaks regularly published hacked documents that were damaging to Democratic Party organizations and its presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton. The email dump reached a fever pitch in the final weeks of campaigning.

"That any country could be meddling in our elections should shake both political parties to their core," Schumer said. "Senate Democrats will join with our Republican colleagues next year to demand a congressional investigation and hearings to get to the bottom of this."

You dumb Democrat bastards have been “shaken to the core” since the evening of November 8th. You need to get over it. But before you do, will you please show us the “CIA report” about Mexican interference in the election. The threats, name calling and race card playing buy el Presidente and other Mexican politicians. And then there is that thing about Mexico flooding the country with illegal alien voters who were told by Obama to go ahead and vote and that no one would come after them. Finally, how about the “CIA report” about all of the foreign donations received by the Clintoonie team. We Americans sure would like to see those “CIA reports”.

Maybe it's time for both the House Subcommittee and the Senate Subcommittee on Intelligence Oversight see all the data and find it to be a sham.

I don’t pay much attention to fake news, Shmuckey.

And if you say I should do X, you can’t damn sure count on me doing Y.

Creep.

So far the primary thing they have been accused of releasing truth which the Democrats find inconvenient. Have they ever denied any of the Wikileaks released files? Any of them?

The unsolved murder of Democratic National Committee staff member Seth Rich should shake us to the core.

I’m shaking from laughing so hard.
These people are not going to give up on this. It’s like the ‘video’ ... that’s their narrative and they’re sticking to it.

I find this whole thing disgusting. The Democrats want the American voters to remain dumb and ignorant about what crooked Hillary and her ‘RATS have been up to. If you Russkis did hack these emails and release them to Wikileaks, we American people owe you a giant debt of gratitude. Americans want to know what the politicians have got going to screw us over. It’s the politicians against the people.

I wonder if they held practice workshops, learning how to make a Shocked Face about this fiction?
Notice, you don’t hear much about the so called “Alt-Right”
anymore. I guess that never took root.

Chuck is “shaken to the core” about his party’s defeat in last month’s election - he got that right.

It has nothing to do with Russia or the Democrats’ alibi of the month.

Democrats blame other people for their inability to connect with the voters.

According to Chuck, the reason the Democrats lost the LA Senate election tonight is because the Russians stole it.

Democrats have now become believers in conspiracy theories.

How about Saudis, Slimes, Composts efforts to affect the election, Chuckie?

Does that “shake you to the core”?

Bastard

Clearly a blatant attempt to delegitimize Trump.
