Tucker: Hillary wears tinfoil hat with conspiracy theories
Some of the Hildawg's excuses seem to be just a little contradictory. She pretends that it takes some kind of diabolical expert to recognize her obvious personality flaws. Sorry, Hillary, but half the country already knew you were corrupt before the election and the stuff that came out during the election only confirmed it. Instead of lying, which only makes her even more corrupt, maybe she should try just admitting her mistakes. Most people aren't buying her lame excuses!

Putin Unplugged
Putin is correct in pretty much everything he says. CNN tries to spin it negatively, but make themselves look stupid in the process. Regarding Russian hacking allegations, Putin is absolutely right when he says all our intelligence agencies present are assumptions and conclusions, there are no facts to back up any of their claims.

Twitter warfare continues over Hillary’s blame game
Looks like even her former supporters are growing tired of her blame game. Her campaign was poorly run, the corruption was through the roof, and enough people preferred a total buffoon over her and so she got what she deserved. It will take a miracle for her to accept responsibility for her obvious blunders and I'm not expecting that miracle to ever happen, but I do hope that people will drop the Russia-did-it BS ASAP. It's getting really, really old!

Putin Roasts NBC Windbag Megyn Kelly Over Absurd Russian Hacking Claims
Putin correctly asserts that the Russian Hackers Myth is an invention of the DNC without any factual basis and that it is more a matter of internal bickering than something that the international community should take seriously. He suggests that the issue be dropped and that relations between the USA and Russia be normalized right away. I agree completely. The USA and Russia could do a lot to reduce the threat of terrorism if we worked together.

What I don't get is why doesn't Trump go on the offensive? Instead of defending against this Russian collusion bullshit, why doesn't he insist on an investigation into manipulation of the government in Ukraine during the Obama administration? We know that McCain gave a speech in Ukraine in support of an uprising and we know that VP Biden has a relative with ties to businesses in Ukraine. So, why not turn the focus on them? If it is not alright for a foreign country to influence our election, then how is it alright to openly encourage a coop in another country?

It has to be either Trump has been compromised or he was never any good to begin with and a better liar than Hillary. Neither choice is very good. Just like Trump University isn't a real university, the United States is no longer an independent sovereign country. It is a slave colony run by elite sub human monsters. Most of which never show their faces and instead are represented by a virtual cardboard cut out, posing as the president, pretending to be in charge; but only doing what he is told.
Make Trona great again!

Exposing the plot to overthrow the elected government of Ukraine would not be difficult, but it might not be politically expedient. Then again it might be just what we need to turn the tide. If Trump could discredit all those involved in that conspiracy, then he'd more or less have a blank slate to work from. It would give him a fresh start and not only would it eliminate a whole bunch of political enemies, but it would also give the rest of his enemies something to think about.

NSA Hacking Leak: Who is Reality Winner?
This doesn't seem at all significant, just another smoke and mirrors move by corporate news and the government. The document in question probably only contained accusations without any factual proof to back them. However, framing this as a "leak" may be a strategy being used to sell the contents of the document to those who are skeptical. Seems like a whole lot of nothing so far to me.

Same bogus pile of crap, just served slightly differently. Still there is nothing but a claim without any real evidence to back it. We all know that serious hackers can cover their trail on the internet. There is no such thing as evidence that would link a specific group of serious hackers to a hacking incident. Therefore the report can only contain speculation and is obviously worthless. Who cares if it was leaked? A bogus report is a bogus report.
