Intelligence community investigating covert Russian influence operations in the United States

WaPo ^ | 9/5/16 | Dana Priest, Ellen Nakashima and Tom Hamburger

[jiggyboy]

PsyOps continues apace. Government and MSM are marching in lockstep.

[Yaelle]

Or worse, getting a corrupt Homeland Security involved in our election to MAKE SURE Hillary wins. Clearly we head to civil war if she wins. It may not only involve our country though.

Putin knows Hillary is owned by their enemies.

Hackers (WIKILEAKS, in this case, not Russian) are doing the job of the US Media.

[Yaelle]

I’m having so much fun reading the comments. 80% of them could have been written by FReepers. But they aren’t. It gives me great hope.

We have never had a more corrupt president than Obama. Though Hillary can top that. Makes me happy to see the WaPo readers get it.

[Starboard]

Putin is right. The leaks are only a problem for the Democrats because of their own deceitful actions.

Its a classic Democrat tactic: blame everyone but yourself.

[Rome2000]

LOL

Effing WP propagandists up to their tired old tricks again

No American with an IQ over 90 trusts anything the U.S. press or Government says about anything.

We literally have to read foreign press to find out what’s really going on.

These scumbags have chosen sides, and they are not on ours.

They will have to be dealt with harshly once the Right takes power.

[Starboard]

The public is slowing catching on to the shenanigans of the Democrats. You see it in lots of comments after many articles, even in liberal publications. Sounds like there are an awful lot of would be FReepers out there these days. :)

[DoughtyOne]

Yeah, lets focus on Russia while the Islamic Brotherhood runs the White Hut on Pennsylvania Avenue.

[Geronimo]

“The 1980s Are Now Calling to Ask for Their Foreign Policy Back.”

The only people who will attempt to hijack this election are the Clintonistas with the full cooperation and support of the MSM.

It’s going to be a rough couple of months but I believe we are at a pivotal moment in our Country’s future. The election will come down to deciding between Truth and Integrity vs Lies and Corruption, good will prevail...

Vote Trump and God Bless America...

[Starboard]

Bingo! This is nothing but propaganda. The left wing WaPo is trying to protect the Democrat Party’s flanks.

I would like to think that we could even the score with the Dems if Trump wins, but there are a lot of weak and unprincipled people in the GOP who will defend their “friends” in the other party. We got a lot of house cleaning to do.

[Be Careful]

Amen and amen

I think the uniparty globalists already have the 4 th estate locked into a long tem lease

[PghBaldy]

Deep down in the article, they blame Russia for sowing dissent against the muslim invasion of Europe. A normal, lover of Western Civ would see that as a positive.

[cgbg]

The Russians do not want to see Europe turn into a large Islamic Caliphate to their west.

Can you blame them?

As for the Washington Post commenters, there were some good ones but also a lot of crazy Hillary supporters who apparently believe the “Russian menace” conspiracy theory of Hillary.

How wacky is this? I never thought I would see the day when the leftist Democrats saw Russkies under every bed. I guess the curse of long life is that if you live long enough you will see everything.

[maddogtiger]

We need an army of Paul Reveres to wake up America! A coup is on the horizon!

[Mariner]

I just can't bring myself to believe US Officials.

Can't do it.

That said, even if it WERE the Russians I can't see that they are doing this nation any harm by it.

[kabar]

God these people are stupid.

No, they are sinister and cunning. They are preparing a plan should Hillary lose. They will say the elections were rigged and that the Russians made Trump President to de-legitimize his election.

Should Hillary win, they will point to this as proof that this was a fair election despite Russian interference. It will also act as cover for the planned massive voter fraud.

[ReaganGeneration2]

IF the FBI finds (concocts) any damning information at all (and that’s the agency that must present it) against Trump, they have zero credibility with a majority of Americans.

If THEY disrupted the election in this way, this late in the game, things could get very ugly in our country.

John Schindler is a former "Analyst" Analysts are like politicians, prostitutes and lawyers. Pay them enough and they will do or say anything.

[Chgogal]

Sorry Obama, Russia has nothing on the DemocRAT Party in Chicago, where the dead vote early and often.
