The Washington Post has unflaggingly stirred up hysteria over so-called "fake news," so it's extra-ironic that the media giant is one of the country's foremost purveyors of the same. In the Post's world, a bunch of guys with Dorito-stained fingers who blog in their parents' basements have done everything from manipulating the election to provoking a nutcase into an attack on a D.C. pizzeria. Meanwhile, the Post's banner headline on Saturday was the innuendo-filled and poorly sourced announcement "CIA: Russia favored Trump," which sounds like fake news, too.
If it's true that the CIA concluded that Russia deliberately intervened in November's election to tilt it toward Donald Trump, that ought to worry Americans, but not because Trump is a Russian mole or Vladimir Putin's agents stuffed electronic ballot boxes. Rather, it is cause for concern that American intelligence analysts are either not very bright or politically corrupted enough to really believe such poppycock. Meanwhile, the Post and much of the mainstream media, in their mania to discredit Trump, will publish almost any sort of "news" nowadays, even if it's as fake as the nonsense that makes up much of the blogosphere.

This is a setup by the dems and msm to hound President Trump for the next four years with the “cover-up” meme since he will be in charge of the CIA, FBI, etc.....
Every floor speech in the Senate and House by the dems will include “cover-up” of this.
Yes, it’s the new version of Bush/Gore 2000. What’s old is new again. Bore, bore, bore.
Russians aren’t all stupid. Hillary is unlikeable to THEM too. And most of the rest of the civilized world...
So maybe they did.
Every other country around the world has SOME preference in ALL of our elections.

Yep. Anybody who enjoys life should have preferred Trump over Clinton.
I bet the good old USA has mettled in Russian Elections. If the Russians did this—and I do not believe it for a New York Minute—we owe them a debt of thanks! We should sell them an old aircraft carrier to use—or trade it for some of their huge transport planes. Have you thought what life would be like for Russia under Hillary? No wonder they helped or prayed for Trump! Hillary lost because she was a terrible candidate who didn’t work for the job. She thought she was a shoe in and the people kicked her out of the running. She did stupid things (ie...Tick off the Coal Miners—lost West Virginia). Russia and The US should work together—this isn’t the 1950-60s or 70s any more—we have common enemies. We got together to beat the Nazis—we can do it to crush ISIS.
