The original story was an anonymous tip to a website which peddles fakenews.

Yes, the Washington Post.

Who are these “multiple sources” denouncing the WaPo story?

CIA officials are going to have to come out of the shadows and make definitive statements one way or the other. Either way, WE, the citizens are going to have the final say. They should know that.

Is anyone reporting this other than a blog?

Ouch, if this article is true because it is not being reported in any other news outlet at this moment and this is a massive story....then there is a major problem with the left using the CIA or major internal problems in the CIA.....if this story is not true then the massive story is that the CIA has become political and inserted itself into American politics for the democrats as there are stories out there stating that it was an internal leak not a hack.

Everyone in the MSM knows that the proof is in the outcome! It's unnatural for Democrats to not win, so it must have been hacked.

Julian Assange has publically stated the hacker was not the Russians

A UK ambassador says he met the hacker personally and it wasn’t the Russians and now the CIA

Vs.

The NYT and Wash Post - confirmed liers!?

That is a new wrinkle.

Over the weekend, the FBI claimed the CIA was lying about Russians hacking the election.

First they try to cover for Hillary and the Dems. Then they try to cover their posteriors.

All this finger-pointing! And most of it is based on ‘the seriousness of the charges’ without much in the way of ‘evidence’.

I have yet to hear exactly what the Russian hacked to sway the election. Priebus stated again this weekend on the Sunday morning news-talk that the RNC was not hacked during the time that the DNC supposedly was being hacked. Now, the Dems/media are trying to turn that around as proof the Russians were involved because they DIDN’T hack the RNC.

F Chuck Todd was a rabid dog yesterday with Reince.

Not half crazed. Crazed.


Hey, Mr. Soros gave him a job to do yesterday, and he failed miserably. The Trump effect is taking place among the GOP, they're growing spines and they're starting to fight back. No Christmas bonus for you, F Chuck!

Is it time for President Trump in 2017 to end the CIA?

President Truman did not trust the OSS and its increasing power.

At the end of WWII, he signed an ExO ending the OSS.

September 20, 1945, President Truman signed Executive Order 9621, terminating the OSS. His Order became effective October 1, 1945. In the days following, the functions of the OSS were split between the Department of State and the Department of War.

The State Department received the Research and Analysis Branch of OSS (originally created by Edward Mead Earle[28]) which was renamed the Interim Research and Intelligence Service or IRIS,[29] headed by U.S. Army Colonel Alfred McCormack. Later it was renamed the Bureau of Intelligence and Research by the State Department.

Now I am confused; I thought that it was the CIA that first made that claim. Now they are saying that it is a lie? What gives?

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 - superstar of 'FAKE NEWS'...

I think it was Senator James Lankford who said this morning that the information regarding the CIAs discovery was a leak of just part of a larger report being presented to the government. Conveniently, the remains of the report is still classified and so can’t be divulged in order to refute the claim the Russians were working for Trump’s election.

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.

Yes, Trump is right again... The CIA and FBI need to look into the DNC kid killed in a robbery where nothing was taken... Same MO used years ago in a pizza place during the 'monica' problems..

They can’t believe that with all of the illegal funding by foreign countries like Saudi Arabia, thugs like George $oreA$$ and other foriegn investors in Clinton 2016.

That Clinton lost even with millions of illegals and dead voting for Clinton.

The CIA was the base of George H.W. Bush’s power. H.W. of the New World Order...the biggest mistake ever made by Reagan. H.W. begat us the last 28 years of horrendously destructive government.

Take the CIA out, down to the studs and build an intelligence organization from scratch...one that is under complete, open control.

Perfect response to fake news: more fake news!

Truepundit, whose credibility we all know is every bit as reliable as WaPo and NYT,counters WaPo’s and NYT’s Anonymous Sources with, get this, THEIR OWN equally credible Anonymous Sources!

BTW, has anyone else noticed that pretty much ALL the news for the last few weeks has been faked using “Anonymous Sources”? Naturally, the beauty of “Anonymous Sources” is that they can be made to say anything you want them to say!

Anonymous Sources are the perfect fig leaf for FAKE NEWS! You want to fake some news? Anonymous Sources! You want to counter some fake news with MORE fake news? Anonymous Sources! Is there ANYTHING that Anonymous Sources can’t do? Anonymous Sources is even a great name for a new rock band!

“Why isn’t this on Drudge and Limbaugh etc.?”

because a truepundit article based on anonymous sources is likely to pretty much be fake news.
