Remember the Wikileaks??

Everyone in the media was told that they were emails from John Podesta and that they had been hacked and released by Julian Assange.

But that did not stop the corporate media from rushing to release every email, no matter how insignificant. They didn't really care where the emails came from.

It appears that they probably came from the Russian government?

They wanted to affect the election and they did not want Hillary Clinton to win. That is the information that the CIA is now confirming as true?

And what is with this hypocrite Mitch McConnell? The President met with about twelve leaders from the House and Senate to discuss releasing the information in a bi-partisan manner. McConnell was not convinced that the CIA was correct? And if the President went out alone, without bi-partisan support, he would have no credibility.

But now?

Mitch McConnell thinks we should have a bi-partisan investigation on whether Russia hacks affected the outcome of our election? No doubt, the fact that McConnell has gone along with the investigation is causing great consternation at Trump HQ's and the RNC. Stay out of Donald's way today...he is unpredictable and unstable and there is no telling what the hell he might do?
