U.S. intelligence officials have determined that Russia interfered with the 2016 election, specifically to help Donald Trump win the presidency, The Washington Post first reported on Friday.
In addition to hacking into Democratic organizations, Russians hacked the Republican National Committee's computer systems, according to the Post but they did not release any information that might have been retrieved from Republican networks.
"Intelligence agencies have identified individuals with connections to the Russian government who provided WikiLeaks with thousands of hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee and others, including Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, according to U.S. officials," the Post reports. "Those officials described the individuals as actors known to the intelligence community and part of a wider Russian operation to boost Trump and hurt Clinton's chances."
Citing anonymous officials briefed on the issue, the Post says the CIA shared its findings with senators in a closed-door briefing last week, saying it was now "quite clear" that Russia's goal was to tip the presidency in Trump's favor:
" 'It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia's goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,' said a senior U.S. official briefed on an intelligence presentation made to U.S. senators. 'That's the consensus view.' "
In a previous assessment, CIA officials had thought Russians intervened with the intention of undermining Americans' electoral system, Adam Entous, one of the Post story's reporters, tells NPR's Scott Simon.

Cut the funding for those sons of whores immediately.
I’m talking NPR, but I just might as well be talking CIA.
Too many times they seem to be working AGAINST the American people.
I see where things are headed. They are trying to get it to where they can declare the election invalid any way they can. We will have to fight before it’s over.
Fake, probably to take attention off of DHS getting caught trying to hack -i think it was- Georgia.
The CIA is not trustworthy.
How ironic to read a press release alleging Russian hacking and having a hotlink to "Tip Line" in the header bar.

The ‘election’ is done by the Electoral College, appointed by state legislatures, and then approved by Congress. There’s no way to make that chain of events “invalid”.
So by helping Wiki-Leaks share the truth about Democrat skullduggery Trump was helped? How is that wrong? Compare that to the encouragement of outright voter fraud.
The Republicans probably knew anything sent or received via the internet was hack able and as a result (unlike the worlds smartest woman and the Democrat Party) they didn’t e-mail anything that could in turn prove embarrassing to them.
Dear media,
Please ‘splain why it was in the Ruskie’s best interest for Trump to win.
Meanwhile, the US GOVERNMENT tried to ramper with the election...and you guessed it...it was one ofe those rascally ‘rogue employees#:

How the mediots manipulate what Trump does and says to meet their agendas!
The following is from Snopes about the above. Draw your own conclusions, why the difference in WSJs headlines:
This image was passed around on the Internet accompanied by the claim that the Wall Street Journal had deliberately published one headline, "Trump Softens His Tone," in a pro-Trump market area in an attempt to sway readers away from the the GOP nominee, and the other headline, "Trump Talks Tough on Wall," in a non-Trump market area to bolster support for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
However, these opposing headline editions were not distributed to different political or geographic markets, nor were they intended to influence voters.
This picture shows two editions of the Wall Street Journal published at different times of the day. The paper on the left came off the press early in the day, while the paper on the right was produced later in the day. Print newspapers sometimes undergo revisions throughout their daily runs and typically employ marks to distinguish the various editions in this case the differing WSJ editions are distinguishable by the number of stars displayed in the masthead:
This came as too much of a shock to those who were trying to create an UNIMFORMED voter.
I don’t believe it.
Too many references to the Russians.
Hillary overplayed her hand.
Waste of taxpayer money. Those two need to shut up and sit down.
This is more of the setup to try and nullify the election or flip enough faithless electors to give the Presidency to Hillary. They are going all out to overturn the election and it will be lock and load time if they succeed. Conservatives and the military may have to defend the country with more than votes.
I did not like Trump at first.Think he is great now! Hillary is a nasty witch of a woman and never, ever should be near the presidency.
Didn’t Obama put his own guys in the CIA first days of office?
PING!!!
