The Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday reaffirmed its support for the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that the Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election with the goal of putting Donald Trump in the Oval Office.
Tuesday's bipartisan report, from a panel chaired by North Carolina Republican Richard Burr, undercuts Trump's years of efforts to portray allegations of Kremlin assistance to his campaign as a "hoax," driven by Democrats and a “deep state” embedded within the government bureaucracy. The report does not address the question of whether anyone in the president's orbit colluded with the Russian efforts.
The report represents a confidence-booster to the country’s intelligence community.

Absolutely nothing new here. Just further confirmation of Trump's duplicity..................and Trumpette's gullibility.
Recently released FBI documents show:
1) Steele was getting paid by the FBI, Hillary, Fusion GPS, and Russian Oligarchs
-- Steele stated in an interview he felt no loyalty to the FBI as an 'informant' because he was being paid by original 'employers', Fusion GPS and the Russians
2) The FBI assessed information within Steele's Dossier to be Russian Intel Service (RIS) propaganda being simultaneously used against US Foreign Policy elsewhere.
3) The FBI and Obama administration intentionally used the RUSSIAN Intel Service Counter-Intel Propaganda to initiate an un-supported investigation and in FISA Court Abuses to acquire illegal warrants to spy on Trump and his team.
(You should have all the links for these as it was only a day ago we had this entire discussion in which I provided you with a plethora of links and docs and you responded with lots of emotional opinion...)
So how does anyone figure the Russians wanted Donald Trump to win when evidence shows the Russian Intel Service was feeding Steele Counter-Intel propaganda damning to Trump who was in turn feeding it to the FBI AND Obama Conspirators? Only an idiot would believe the Russians thought what they put in the Dossier would HELP Trump win.
** AGAIN, HOW DOES THE RUSSIAN INTEL SERVICE FEEDING STEELE COUNTER-INTEL PROPAGANDA - THAT THE FBI RECOGNIZED AS PROPAGANDA ALREADY BEING USED AGAINST US FOREIGN POLICY - AND STEELE THEN FEEDING IT TO THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION - THAT WAS DESPERATE TO KEEP HILLARY OUT OF PRISON AND TO BECOME BARRY'S SUCCESSOR - HELP TRUMP WIN IN 2016 IN ANY WAY?
----BY DOING THIS RUSSIA JUST 'ARMED' HILLARY AND THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WITH FAUX COUNTER-INTEL 'AMMO' TO USE TO ENSURE TRUMP NEVER MADE IT /MAKES IT INTO THE WH.....?!?
Multiple Investigations and Reports have identified / highlighted the FBI's failure to check on its foreign intel sources to continue to confirm their credibility, for failing to attempt to verify any of the information in Steele's Dossier despite the fact he had told them he had no clue if the info was true or not.
These reports show the FBI did assess the information as Russian Counter-Intel propaganda....and used it, that the State Dept informed the DOJ, NSA, CIA, and FBI Steele could not be believed before the FBI chose to use the information anyway to commit the FISA Court abuses.
Using common sense, the most plausible conclusion regarding the Russians actions regarding the 2016 election is that they did not give a flying **** who won the election but instead wanted to create massive division in the US and undermine the unity of the government....which was more than accomplished thanks to the Democrats.
By taking the known Russian (RIS) propaganda, creating the false narrative about Russian Collusion, and intentionally using the known propaganda to commit FISA Court abuses and illegally spy on Trump and his team - by using the Russian-fed known propaganda Obama and Democrats created and sustained hate and division at a level and for longer than the Russians ever dreamed of accomplishing on their own.
With well-placed, well-fed RIS propaganda - in the hands of the Obama administration attempting to put Hillary on the throne as Barry's successor, through Steele, the Russians opened up the simmering, partisan political 'Pandora's Box', and the Democrats' did the rest, tearing the country apart for 4+ years.
