And?

Then?

It had no demonstrable or measurable impact.

Why can’t you focus on China?

They hack us more than all other nations combined.

Russia isn’t really a player in this realm.

India hacks us all the time

Ukraine hacks us

Slovenia hacks us

Want a good one? Britain hacks us.

you are hack reporters.

But I thought Trump was a Russian agent. Was it legal to tell a Russian spy this classified info?

Two weeks before Trump took Office, WHILE OBAMA WAS STILL PRESIDENT.

Is this supposed to be some breaking news? I wonder if Obama was informed? Hmmmmmm...

They informed him about the same information they just indicted the Russians for and for which Obama said NEVER happened.

Interfering in the CAMPAIGN - not the election!

Meddling during campaigns is not meddling in the election. Big difference. Same as democrat and democratic. Different animals. What was Obama doing trying to defeat Benjamin Netenyahu?

Did they brief Bernie Sanders on the criminals that interfered in his becoming the Democratic presidential nominee?

This is BS. It was 0bama’s so-called “election meddling report” ordered produced by 0bama on 12/9/2016 and presented to President-elect Trump on 1/6/2017...the same meeting at which a 2-page appendix of the Steele Dossier was introduced (the “salacious details”) and for which Clapper justified leaking to the media and prompting its revelation.

Of COURSE he was told, but the report was BS and Trump had inside knowledge from Rogers that they were out to get him. He took the meeting - the dossier’s salacious details delivered by Comey one-on-one - and 18 months later they want to smear him with it?

The meeting was intended to besmirch Trump and launch a foreign policy crisis, but Trump wasn’t playing. Isn’t playing.

Can you smell the desperation? Why is Newmax peddling NYT horsehockey?

The report’s name, fyi:
““Background to “Assessing Russian Activities and intentions in Recent US Elections”: The Analytic Process and Cyber Incident Attribution” “

Deep State is going all in on this latest gambit following Trump meeting with Putin. Comey and Brennan were at this meeting, two people that who are giblets-deep in this conspiracy. I'd say the claims of Russian interference remain questionable.

Was that the report where the different intelligence agencies had differing levels of confidence in the report’s conclusions?

The presstitutes and deep state always write/speak about Trump and Russia in the most misleading way possible. “Meddling” sounds like “vote tampering” plus “collusion” to the gullible who read the headlines and don’t ask questions. They don’t even use the word “collusion” any more. It has been imprinted in their memories. Maybe around the midterms they will start using a new word.

Comey briefed Trump on the dossier during the same timeframe. The only problem was that Comey only mentioned the salacious, alleged hotel incident and nothing else. How can we trust these NYT leaks?

If the intel agency heads at that time told me the sky was blue, I would go outside to look for myself.
