Double-secret hacking. Neither the people hacked nor those who made the hacking public have any idea what they’re talking about.

"the hacking of Democrats' emails didn't become a big deal until Donald Trump's surprise victory on Nov. 8."

Selling uranium to Russia was no big deal.
Using an illegal unsecured server was no big deal.
Huma sharing classified email on a joint account with Carlos Danger was no big deal.
The destruction of evidence was no big deal.
Staffers with no clearance being on her distribution list was no big deal.

Come to think of it, nothing has changed.

If it is incriminating to Brennan, then by all means he should publicly invoke his 5th Amendment rights.

After all, I am a Constitutionalist.

Brennan is afraid of incriminating himself in a crime. This way he doesn’t have to plead the Fifth by refusing to appear in a briefing that could turn into an investigation - he and the CIA have opened a can of worms.

Because if they gave the briefing to electors they would have to give it to Trump specialists that would see through the dog and pony show and Trump would give CIA hell come Jan 20.

The ‘Russians did it’ and ‘Fake news’ are all leftist propaganda aimed at people on the left that aren’t politically savvy.

It means the House Oversight Committee has no guts. Otherwise they would tell these heads of these agencies to get their butts over to the hearing room and explain exactly what is going on, and what they are going to do to stop the insanity.
