*Ahem* Reince Priebus said Trump didn't buy Putin's denial of election meddling. So why's Matteis wasting his time? I'd strongly recommend he go back to comics writing and not spend so much time doing all this Trump-bashing. Oh, and he'd do well to leave politics at the door when he's writing comics. It'd help tremendously that way.
There is no evidence of Russian "hacking," in the sense of actually tampering with ballots or changing the outcome of the election.
ReplyDeleteUndoubtedly, the Russian secret service spied on the election. We spy on them. That's what governments do. They spy on each other, while trying to safeguard their own secrets. That's why countries have their alphabet soup of espionage and counter-espionage agencies: FBI, CIA, NSA, MI5, MI6, FSB, SVR, etc., etc.
What about Saudi donations to the Clinton campaign? What about Obama trying to interfere in the Israeli election and in the Brexit vote?
The FBI director admitted under oath that Trump never tried to obstruct the investigation into Russian hacking. He also admitted that the DNC never allowed the FBI access to the allegedly hacked computers, so the investigation had to rely on second hand information provided by a private company that was hired by the Democratic party.
Wikileaks has said that the information came from a disgruntled Democratic party insider. The evidence points to Seth Rich, the Sanders supporter who was murdered before the Democratic national convention.
