The White House strongly suggested Monday that Donald Trump was the beneficiary of Russian meddling in the US election, saying it was the President-elect who praised Vladimir Putin on the campaign trail. "The emails that had been hacked and leaked by the Russians, these were emails from the (Democratic National Committee) and John Podesta, not from the (Republican National Committee) and Stephen Bannon," said White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest. "It was the President-elect who over the course of the campaign indicated that he thought that President Putin was a strong leader," Earnest added.
He said members of Congress should "spare us the hand-wringing" and move forward with investigating Russian ties to the election.

Assange should have a balcony press conference and put it out there loudly if Rich was the source. Throw it in the MSM faces and listen to the crickets chirp on this story.
Note how he conflates the Wikileaks disclosures with “hacking” the election. They are playing bait and switch- they said the Russians hacked the election, now he is back to the DNA emails. I thought the recent issue as the voting apparatus, not the emails? They are vile people.
I’m sick of repeating it on here like you said.
An unanames source written by the Times , good grief, half of the freepers here are even acting as if the CIA stated it was the Russians.
Headline should be more like: Hillary and DNC Corruption Exposed! Voters Decide Against Criminals!
Trump is more for free markets and smaller government. It was Hillary who was a big brother socialist. So if the Ruskies were wanting to help anyone it would be The Beast.
Stuff coming out of the press and from these democratic hacks is downright laughable at this point.

I have also been confused.
I think the implication is that the American voters cast their votes after they learned something of the Truth.
The American voters were not supposed to learn anything of the Truth.
Wikileaks showed the Truth to some American voters and affected the election.
The Democrats want to claim that Russia is behind Wikileaks.
So, Russia helped the American voters learn the Truth about Hillary.
This wasn’t supposed to happen. It’s why Hillary lost. She says it’s Russia’s fault that the American people became well-informed.
She had the media all sewn up, making sure that voters never learned the Truth. But then (she claims) Russia spilled the beans.
Darn commies!

I'd love to see what he'd build in it's place. ;)
I wonder where the nearest militia to staten island is?
REALLY hope it doesn’t come to that, but we need to be prepared.
They’re REALLY gonna try hard on this one.
I really think he needs to get out in front of this and talk right to the American People at a rally ASAP. The narrative is going to become accepted as truth unless he fights the way he usually does.
Truth be damned, we live in a world of non stop propaganda.
If the President of the United States and all of the security apparatus at his disposal was unable to protect the integrity of the election in this country, then that is a massive failure on his part as well as on the part of the Clinton campaign for using unsecure email servers. The talk of disrupting the smooth transition of power, by the very people who would benefit from that disruption, borders on Treason.
Spilled the beans on what though?
There really wasn’t anything damning for her in the Wikileaks.
Obama knows His false legacy will get obliterated as an incompetent man child.
The CIA once investigated by the next administration might find itself being repopulated and this could also be their last resort effort to keep things the same.
Clever Russians, they hacked the paper ballots, told Clinton to ignore voters in WI, MI, PA, told the judge to stop the recount, and made us vote for Trump.
WOW impressive, and yet they left a calling card saying it was them.
Seriously the Times put out a lie set out by the Clinton campaign who has not got over the loss. The lie is put out , because the Democrat party is in turmoil. They did nto get beat, they got smashed .
obama lost them the House, then the Senate, and now the White House, and while the left keeps putting out talking points of Russians, racists, taxes, it deflects attention away from them to keep their voters and supporters happy with the Dem party.
Well, she lost because she was unpopular. But she can’t admit that. So Russia “spilling the beans” is her next best bet.
Her entire claim is meaningless. It’s word salad. The fact that the media treats it as a viable story rather than the ravings of a lunatic says a lot about how committed the media is to a lawless society.
That it what bothers me the most, in the end of the day, the Russians or whomever, did not WRITE those emails. It still could have been an inside job, do they know for sure some IT guy just didn’t pass along a back up tape someplace? We don’t know how WikiLeaks got the info, but the press/government certainly has been speculating.
When Trump is in office, after the scorched earth tactics Obama has used, he needs to go 100% scorched earth on Obama.
