The Central Intelligence Agency is declaring the Washington Post’s much-hyped story linking the Russian government to hacking the presidential election to help Donald Trump an “outright lie,” according to CIA personnel with direct knowledge of the case.
The Washington Post, in a front-page splash on Friday, fingered the CIA for allegedly confirming the wild rumors of Russian hacking that were concocted and spread by Democratic lawmakers for months preceding the election and the weeks since the GOP win. The Washington Post’s story, however, contained no CIA sources and in fact, no credible U.S. intelligence agency sources whatsoever. Instead, it hinged on what unnamed lawmakers had supposedly been told by unidentified, supposed CIA-linked sources in “secret” briefings: That the CIA had developed proof the Russian state waged an orchestrated campaign to destabilize the U.S. election to benefit GOP-candidate Trump.
“It’s an outright lie,” a CIA analyst divulged to True Pundit. “There’s nothing definitive like that. There are leads from activity originating in Finland, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Britain, France, China and Russia.”
Multiple CIA sources are now denouncing the Washington Post for knowingly reporting misleading national security intelligence. Intelligence insiders said no one in the Agency or in the FBI, who is running at least one parallel inquiry, has ruled out a possible internal leak within the Democratic National Committee from actor(s) inside the United States who funneled private DNC emails to Wikileaks.

It’s going to have to take more than an anonymous tip to an obscure website.
It was all a setup,article for the weekend talk shows to have something to go after Trump and surrogates.
Washington Post is one of the world’f premiere fake news sites.
Thank you, Travis Mcgee for this.
I overheard two men talking and the one man was a ‘journalist’ and he said that when a ‘news outlet’ reports something, they have 14 days to take it back and say it was a misprint or something to that affect...
So what I am going to do is go back on all the ‘re takes’ and count the days and see if this is true...
Apparently if they don’t do this in the 14 day period, they can be sued...interesting isn’t it...
So this would be ‘fake news’...got it.
More #fakenews from the fakenews media. Then they wonder why so few people trust them any more.

“And now we have some Faking News from CNN”
Once again we see demonstrated, that whatever the Left accuses their opponent of, is what they are actually doing.
Now about those “Trump raping children” smears...
So Trump is right yet again.
Washington Fake Post
Pray America woke
F. Chuck Todd was unavailable for comment.
Does this mean that the Washington Post printed fake news?
Why aren’t they excited about the REAL EVIDENCE that the Saudi’s tried to BUY THE ELECTION??
Amateurish Bezo’s attempt? Might as well start that one since it came from the Post.
Exactly what Reince Priebus was saying over ans over to that lame, Chuck Todd.
No named sources - just like the original story.
Bait.
The original story was an anonymous tip to a website which peddles fakenews.
F Chuck Todd was a rabid dog yesterday with Reince.
Not half crazed. Crazed.
