In a statement released Friday night, President-Elect Donald Trump blasted the CIA over a leaked report that claimed, without evidence of direct involvement, that Russia interfered in the recent presidential election to help elect Trump over rival Hillary Clinton.
The leaked CIA report was first reported by the Washington Post Friday evening. Earlier Friday it was reported President Obama had ordered a “full review” due by the end of his presidency on allegations of Russia’s hacking to influence the election.

It is illegal for the CIA to meddle in US politics. There should be an investigation of this.
I'll bet it won't be a muslim....
Yes, that is true.
Keep an eye on Lindsey Graham. He’s disgraced himself, humiliated himself and is sore to cause Trump trouble. Right now he’s pushing an amnesty bill with Demicrats and trying to start a fight with Putin.
” the non-peaceful result will not be pretty”
Seen this ref made a lot these days.
Just how will that play out, curious?
Agree 100%!
As this story unfolds, and I read each new piece, it becomes apparent to me that the CIA has no such report, but rather this is just some campaign or administration dirty-trick, or idle speculation on the part of sad-eyed snowflake in the media still reeling over Trump winning.
I wish Trump had taken on the Wash Post instead.
John Brennan bye bye
bump!
The unfolding of relations between Putin and Trump is going to be interesting.
My thought that Putin along with all the world that matters, Iran but not Uruguay, recognized Obama as a lightweight out of his league. Putin knew he could get away with anything with no cost. He took advantage of the situation.
Now I expect the presstitutes to drag out Reproachmont, a fancy word for agreement on many thoughts and a new status quo. Fighting requires energy and it is easier to not tempt the Trump tiger.
I imagine that if Obama tries to suspend the inauguration or tries to enact a “redo” of the election that a military group would have to step in and enforce the Constitution. That and perhaps armed patriots would step in and help remove him from office. In any case it would be one big Constitutional mess.
Two things jump out at me. 1 - the information received through the hacks was true. The dems never denied any of it. and 2 - nothing that the CIA could come up with in two weeks could prove intent. Even if they found Russia’s fingerprints on it, to imply that the intent was to make Trump president is not discoverable.
Yes. The CIA is saying that Russia manipulated the election by exposing the DNC for manipulating the election?
“Reached a consensus” = No actual evidence. Ordered everyone to toe a party line.
Time to get out the scythe at CIA. This report will actually be helpful in pinpointing whom to fire first.
“I wish Trump had taken on the Wash Post instead.”
I wonder why he didn’t also. Probably another Fake News story based upon some unnamed Obama lackeys.
The explanation was as believable as 60 minutes explanation for the Ford pickup exploding gas tank.
btt
Did these Hillarybots see the crowds that went to the Trump rallies? Don’t play with fire or you might get burnt.
Ha!! Exactly!
If the Russians were involved they probably were trying to get Sanders in and got behind timeline.
No quarter. Crush them to dust. It is the only way.
Even if it was the Russians, I don't hear much blame being placed on the DNC. These are people who want to continue to be in charge of government. If they can't protect their own info, how do we expect them to protect ours? Never did hear if their servers where cloud based or in house operation. We know the silicon valley tech types were all in for Hillary.
