In the final hours of Barack Obama's presidency, some White House officials reportedly raced to spread and preserve information about possible communications between associates of then-candidate Donald Trump and Russians.
The New York Times, citing former American officials, reported that these officials were concerned that the information they were gaining on the Russian meddling in the election and the possible campaign contact could be compromised with the new administration, and they wanted to set up any future investigation with the information.
According to The Times, after Obama asked for an investigation into Russian tampering into the elections, officials found some "damning" evidence.
A former intelligence official confirmed to Fox News that the Obama administration was determined to keep the Russian issue alive and data on Moscow's election interference was circulated broadly.
The usual intelligence practice is to circulate assessments privately, but such was the gravity of Russia's actions that there were two versions - one for the public to digest and the other classified, the former official said.
The New York Times reported that intelligence agencies pushed forward as much “raw” intelligence they could analyze. The intelligence reports were also reportedly labeled a low classification level, so they would be accessible to more government workers — and some European allies.

here’s hoping every aspect of Trumps gub mint goes after these obammy clowns.
IRS, FBI, Justice dept. have em all investigated for any and all possible.

Obama to Trump: ‘Stop whining’ about rigged election
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/obama-trump-stop-whining-rigged-election-article-1.2835305
I wonder why the Democrat’s strong connection to the Muslim Brotherhood is not being brought up?
Yep, didn’t take long to use the massive surveillance state to spy on political adversaries.
Maybe need to start shutting those programs down.
Hopefully someone will bring it up.
Don’t give ‘em any ideas.
ahhh, but you are far too kind in regards obamma.
“Obama asked for an investigation into Russian tampering into the elections, officials found some “damning” evidence”
Damning evidence? This is about the Hillary Clinton email server hack. Any teenager could have hacked into her server. The degenerate homosexual John Podesta used a simple password to log into the server. The password used was ‘password’.
The idiot democrats were begging to be hacked. Notice the Russians attempted to also hack into GOP servers but were unable to do so.
Tell me again how the Russians interfered with the elections?
Obama Administration Rushed to Preserve Intelligence of Russian Election Hacking
Now, tie this in with this story from the Daily Mail:
Obama confidante Valerie Jarrett has moved into his Kaloroma home
EXCLUSIVE: Barack Obama's close confidante Valerie Jarrett has moved into his new DC home, which is now the nerve center for their plan to mastermind the insurgency against President Trump.
- Obama's goal is to oust Trump from the presidency either by forcing his resignation or through his impeachment, a family friend tells DailyMail.com
- Jarrett has moved into the 8,200-square-foot, $5.3-million Kaloroma mansion to work closely with the former president and Michelle Obama
- Jarrett lived in the White House, dined with the Obamas, and helped shape his domestic and foreign policies
- Obama cannot use his West End office, a post-presidency perk, for political purposes
- 'He's coming. And he's ready to roll.' former Attorney General Eric Holder said yesterday about the former president's reentry into the political scene
Trump has some real problems. They have moved from being merely an irritant to a danger.
A lot of people on the left feel that they have the goods on Jeff Sessions now, with his comment that he has not talked to the Russians in his confirmation hearing. The talk about impeaching him has already started, it will taper off in the next few days, but will end up tainting him enough that there will be tremendous pressure on him to appoint a Special Prosecutor.
It's important to remember that Obama never had the danger of a special prosecutor. Holder's first and most important job was the Team Obama undertaker. He prevented any scandal from ever leaving his desk.
In contrast Bush, the naive boy scout, was coerced into appointing Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. He gave us a master-class in what an unleashed SP can do. That is: ANYTHING HE WANTS TO. Despite finding the object of his search in the first week, he continued on asking ridiculous questions to everyone in sight, up to and including the President of the United States, ultimately creating a perjury trap for Scooter Libby.
This is what they have in plan for Trump.
Hopefully Jeff Sessions gets his head in the game.
The best defense is an offense. In fact it's extremely possible that the entire "get Trump" is based on the desire to avoid prosecution on the part of Obama and his team.
Why else do they hate Trump so pathologically? It's odd. His actual policies are not as extremely different from say Bush that it explains the vitriol and hysteria of the Left.
Team Trump needs to open up multiple investigations on Team Obama, and they need to do it ASAP. Sessions needs to protect Trump (his real job) and he needs to get his head in the game, right now.
Pizzagate, Obama Origins, Clinton Cash, Clinton Russia Nuclear Deal, Podesta Email Leaks as National Security Threat, Weiner Molestation and Computer, Huma Double Billing Scandal, and any others that can be thought up need to all be put *ON THE TABLE* with a thud.
Is Obama is rooting threw Classified Info or working with members of the Government to bring down the Trump Admin
The whole “Russia hacked the election” claim reminds me of the Germans who claimed that they were “stabbed in the back” (by Jews and socialists) and that is what caused their defeat in World War I...a propaganda line peddled by Adolf Hitler himself.

MAYBE??
Unfortunately, I don’t see the feckless wonders of the (R) doing diddly except to save their own hides vs. ‘draining the swamp’ (IE: they losing power\$$\prestige)
"One of the great things about America's democracy is we have a vigorous, sometimes bitter political contest, and when it's done, historically, regardless of party, the person who loses the election congratulates the winner, reaffirms our democracy and we move forward. that's how democracy survives, we recognize that there is something more important than any individual campaign," he said, promising that if Trump somehow managed to win both he and Hillary Clinton would be gracious in defeat and help him transition into office.
Hah! She refused to give a concession speech or any speech at all and instead sent her lackey to tell her supporters to buzz off.
