Why Dems will regret a probe into Russian election hacking

The investigation of Russian interference in the US election could turn into a big headache for the Democrats. The phrase “Be careful what you ask for” comes to mind.

For months before the presidential election, I explained why the Democrats were making a big mistake by picking Hillary Clinton as their candidate. And I correctly predicted that she would lose.

The Democrats didn’t listen, and now their party is in shambles. They aren’t going to listen to me now either about the unintended consequences of an investigation of the Russians, but I’m going to explain anyway.

One of the reasons I predicted Hillary would lose was that the Russians had hacked her e-mails — along with those of some other Democratic Party higher-ups.

A very reliable source told me that the Russians did it, through a proxy and — this is the important part — that the National Security Agency had hacked the Russians while the Russians were hacking Hillary.

So, everything the Russians have, the NSA also has. And, as I said back then, the NSA offered those hacked e-mails — including Hillary’s — to the FBI, which declined the offer.....

“the Russians”: Is there anything they can’t do?

[silverleaf]

Have we noticed that all press reports about Trumps claim use the term “ unsubstantiated charges”

But the “Russian hacking” is never described as “ alleged”

Put a man on the Moon.

Maybe today is the day for Vault 7 to reveal something. Hillary needs to be in jail by noon. The surfs up over at Wikileaks this morning—9:00 AM Eastern Time.

This Boris & Natasha business is becoming tiresome.

Why would the FBI turn down dirt on Hillary? They had to be in the tank for her.

[Prolixus]

Hm, maybe but it’s nice to have a little variety.

Anyhow, it was probably too silly - even for the left - to be blaming “climate change” for the rise of Trump. At least there is a possibility that we may see evidence of the existence of “the Russians.” Of course, it may turn out that “the Russians” are actually “the CIA” - stranger things have happened!

"This Boris & Natasha business is becoming tiresome."

While the agenda as set forth during the campaign languishes. Maybe the President can pull a rabbit out of his hat.

[Does so]

The Dims are buying “The Russians™” from Sarah Palin’s 2012 assertion?

[arthurus]

The Dems and the Pubs are going to regret a lot of things they are saying and doing about and to Trump.

[Lord Castlereagh]

For later

Regret implies a conscience - the Dems lack one.

I think the Russians (Putin) also have highly damaging information on the Clintons, Obama, Podesta, the Democrats, and their allies in the media.

The amount of fear and anger this crowd has shown vis a vis the Russians is incredible.

ALL foreign governments conduct intelligence, counter-intelligence, and surveillance operations!

All of them, including the US. Obama bugged Angela Merkel's personal cell phone for crying out loud.

But what seems to throw the evil Democrats into a panic is Putin (a former KGB officer).

I have guessed for months that what Putin really has is devastating: murder, child abuse, rape, bribery, money laundering, homosexuality, and corruption on a grand scale.

[drop 50 and fire for effect]

IThis Boris & Natasha business is becoming tiresome.

They are innocent, I blame that moose and squirrel.

[jazzlite]

I and I suspect millions of people now are sure that the Democratic party and the left have something so egregious to hide that they are literally willing to tear the nation apart and to completely destroy the trust in our institutions to protect whatever that information is. They fear Trump because, regardless of anything, he is a true patriot and knows, already, a lot about the swamp. They may fear that their dictatorship, so full of everything most people abhor will be revealed and perhaps would send many of them to prison for life. Is this possible? I am certain in my own heart that it is.

[Lee'sGhost]

What assertion was that?

[Jumper]

Prision is too good. A single bullet is cheaper. Need a trigger man for the job to save tax payers money - nothing I hate more than Godless freaking communists and homosexuals who hated me first.

Yup, I listen to the news every morning, and every mention includes that qualifier.

Their million dollar attempt to find the voter fraud that helped Trump didn't pan out so well either.
