It’s a gas gas gas.
Of course they did. They had to. Losing to PDJT was a national security threat.
It's perfectly obvious that when Democrats are in charge of any part of government, they think they literally own that part of government. When Hillary ran the State Department, she owned the State Department, and she owned every employee of the State Department, along with every record, document, and computer of the State Department.
“Obviously, Russia was trying to meddle in the election, mainly through cyber-espionage — hacking.”
I haven’t seen proof of this. Or is this the facebook “news” stories seen by 6 thousand people?
So no it’s not obvious to me.
If Russia was meddling in the election, wouldn’t Obama know about it?
If a story is not reported on 95% of the Media, did it still happen?
Who goes to jail?
The FBI was busy spying on the Trump campaign trying to find a crime.
That’s besides the point I made. The article states that it was obvious that the Russians were interfering with our election. I have yet to see definitive proof of this charge. Just vague statements.

FBI Officials Admit They Spied On Trump Campaign:
Depends on how you define “interfering”. If it’s vote tampering, then they haven’t even been accused of it. If it’s retweeting fake news stories, then yeah, they probably did it . . . along with half of the world’s population.

A sitting President abusing his powers to spy on an opposition party candidate.
Good thing they gave their crime a memorable name.
They do it every election. So yes it is obvious. What is a crime is the democrats weapoized this info against the US.

HuffingtonPost:
"My Life as a Secret Back Channel in Iran" Excerpt:
"In the case of Obama, the secret contacts began during the election campaign of 2008, when William Miller, a former diplomat and staff director of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, flew back and forth between Washington and Tehran. He was an ideal choice: an Obama loyalist, a believer in the possibility of a US-Iranian modus vivendi, and a trained diplomat..."
The silent coup gets its voice.
So, the FBI did not open a criminal investigation. Instead, the bureau opened a counterintelligence investigation and hoped that evidence of crimes committed by Trump officials would emerge.
And worse, in their absence the FBI attempted to manufacture them. The second take-home is that this FBI counter-intelligence investigation broached a number of fairly significant bounds: operating in a foreign country, entrapment, and assiduously hiding the details from Congressional oversight. This is not even yet to address the connection to FISA abuses.
One thing about the intelligence business is that there is often a very fine line between "improper" and clearly and outrageously illegal, and one of the functions of an ethical operator - and that is, after all, one reason we give them security clearances - is to steer carefully clear of the latter. When one gleefully steers into the criminal he or she needs to go. And that appears to encompass no small part of the entire leadership structure of the CIA and the FBI. If we don't take this seriously, they won't.
