Where's the outrage over Russia's hack of the US election?

Now we know: Russia was apparently trying very hard to get Donald Trump elected, and the two parties reacted very differently to that fact. We already knew that the Democratic National Committee had been hacked, as had the emails of John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clinton's campaign. We also knew that intelligence officials and independent cybersecurity analysts believed that those hacks came from Russia.

But Friday, The Washington Post reported that the intelligence community had definitively concluded that Russia was behind these hacks, not merely to sow chaos and destabilization but to help Trump win.

Where’s the evidence? Innuendo and suspicion is not evidence.

“Now we know: Russia was apparently trying very hard to get Donald Trump elected”.......

I’m surprised that the Clinton News Network didn’t start out with “BREAKING NEWS”. This crap about the Russians rigging our election is pure, unadulterated BULL CRAP. Remember its coming from Clinton’s “news source”, that’s all we need to know. More fake “news”. They never stop.

This has already been proven FALSE. They are hoping you forgot.

They are trying to delegitimize Trump’s presidency.

This is even though there is no proof. More over the FBI and the rest of the Intelligence Sources said this is false in late October.

Again they are already played this card and it failed. They are hoping you forgot it was proven false.

Please see the article below. Share with all.

Where is the outrage over... some nonsense Harry Reid made up... that is ostensibly an effort to cover up coordination between CNN and Hillary’s campaign?

We had our outrage... you saw it on November 8th.

Does he deny the leaked e-mails were real? Then what does it matter who leaked them? Snowden, Russia, Manning or some prince in Nigeria. If the e-mails are real, and I don’t hear anyone saying they are’nt, that is what undercut her campaign, not the leaker.

I have a statement for CNN: Even Russia knew that Trump was the best man for President. What did you expect them to do, sit around and do nothing?

In the same place as the outrage of CNN, NBC and all the others acting as fake news propaganda channels for Clinton!

Most people see it as a boogie man, and even more do not trust the government on party politics.

# FAKE NEWS

So CNN, ABC, CBS, WaPo, NYT would be okay with a coup to keep Trump out of power?

That’s what they are setting up.

Husband to wife: "While cleaning out the attic, I happened across these videotape cassettes, and am shocked to see that, for years, you've been having affairs with every guy in the neighborhood - including the milkman and the mailman - and that you had been taping your escapades."

Wife to husband: "I am outraged over the fact that you would view videotapes from a cardboard box clearly marked 'Angie's stuff.'"

Regards,

We don’t ‘know’ any such thing. ‘Intelligence official’ is not a legitimate source.

I am absolutely certain this is a complete fraud.

Why am I so certain? Woman’s intuition. Don’t bet against it.

There is no outrage because there is no credible evidence that Russia "hacked" anything.

Like the phony recounts, this is all just another attempt to de-legitimize the Trump presidency. It needs to be met with full ridicule.
