There’s no publicly available evidence to substantiate the claims, but if a hack happens against anyone related to the Clinton campaign, there’s a good bet the Obama Administration is going to blame Russia. That’s as true today as it was during the campaign convention, with the FBI now saying the hacking of campaign chairman John Podesta’s emails are suspected to be Russia’s doing.
Once again, the Clinton campaign is taking this many steps farther, with Podesta himself openly claiming that the fact his emails were hacked “can only be aimed at boosting Donald Trump,” adding that Trump is “continuing to side with the Russians.”
Clinton’s campaign has repeatedly claimed Russia is conducting a systematic hacking campaign to try to get Trump elected, and members of her campaign have accused Trump of secretly being in Russia’s pocket. Russia has repeatedly denied any involvement in any hacking.
Russian President Vladimir Putin insisted that his country has no interest in interfering in the US elections, and claimed the allegations were meant to “divert the attention of the American people from the essence of what was exposed by the hackers.”
So far, it’s been extremely successful on that front, with coverage of the Clinton campaign blaming Russia for the hacks far outstripping coverage of the hacks themselves, and indeed becoming a substantial part of the campaign in general.
Is this the same FBI that routinely entraps people to get involved with fake terrorist plots that it hatches so it can arrest them and pretend they stopping terrorism? Yeah, that organization has a lot of credibility. /sarc
So nice to see the FBI completely in the tank with the media for Hillary.
The entire establishment is scared shitless of Trump. His bid for the presidency is nothing less than a revolution in American politics — a challenge to their “ownership” of the country —
— and they are going all out to prevent his election. This will to some extent succeed; it is the conventional, proven technique for manipulating public opinion. But the world is changing. The internet as an alternative source of info has broken the MSM monopoloy on “narrative” construction, so there is mounting cognitive dissonance created by the conflicting narratives. And that dissonance actually **forces** people to think, forces people to **learn to think**.
It has often been said, in frustration and disgust, that the American people are stupid. I understand the situation, but I just don’t think it’s as bad as one might think. People who are intentionally manipulated, misled, maleducated, and propagandized, may do things at the voting booth that may seems “stupid”, particularly if you hold political views of some other stripe. But when people have no real choice, any vote they cast will look stupid. But what’s really going on — in my view — is not stupidity, but helplessness.
Not stupidity. And the Trump movement phenomenon demonstrates this. Millions of regular people from across the political spectrum have thrown in with Trump. They are smart enough to know that they have been getting screwed by a system that threw them overboard thirty years ago, and now, long-frustrated, their instinctive intelligence sees and seizes the opportunity to actually vote in their own interest. Trump the blue-collar billionaire, despite all his wealth, is one of them: a blunt-to-the-point-of-rudeness, working-class, horn-doggie alpha-male. A guy who hangs out with the elite-and-snobby, caters for a premium price to the elite-and-snobby, hits on the wives of the elite-and-snobby, but is still at heart a working-class bad boy in the mold of Tony Manero. Oh, how the elite-and-snobby hate him. Their hatred, and their snob-based cluelessness is what makes regular folks stream to support Trump at his rallies, and what makes me think the American people are smarter than the elite-and-snobby think they are, and are secretly supporting him. Secretly and quietly so that they do not have to be annoyed by politically correct sissies .
So who believes this bunch of losers? Not me.
They are way worse then losers, they are traders~
Couldn’t find any criminal act in HRC’s private server (nothing to see here…more along) but managed to nail jello to a wall finding “Russian State actors”. Time to give up playing at police work and go full time on Ghost Busters.
The FBI lost all believability and credibility when they let the crook off the hook.
SUSPECTED! what a load of bs.. the fbi had clinton on a platter and she smiled, laughed and walked away from life in prison! The fbi couldn’t catch a cold and anything they have to say can be completely discounted as they are a political propganda office now!
Reading through the other posts, I can see I’m not the only one who will NEVER believe anything the fbi has to say about a damn thing, EVER!
