I've not "discredited" or denied that hacking occurred. I still don't think we can prove who did it, and if we can't do that it's pretty difficult to discern motive. Yet the media is talking leaks from "officials" and unnamed sources in the CIA which and running with them as fact. That includes your latest link from NBC suggesting Putin did it.

Certainty appears as if the hacks came from Russia, and there's apparent circumstantial evidence connecting it to Russian intelligence. From there, it's probably not hard to then say the Russian gov't was involved. Anything beyond that is sheer speculation.

But apparently you, and probably many others, treat the suggestion that this was all about a Putin effort to favor Trump as gospel because when someone points out the apparent lack of evidence and reporting based on unofficial leaks, you accuse them of treason.

Anything beyond that is more than is needed to say, as I do, that enemy action, sourced in the official apparatus of the Russian state, has been taken against the United States.

I think you realize how sour this is likely to go on you.

Nah, don't think so. Of course, if "enemy action has been taken against the United States, and we've know about it for about a year now, we're certainly not scaring anyone with our response.

The response is part of our long term we need to be scared of the Russians strategy. The Establishment will be using this, and lots of other stuff, to minimize Trump's exercise of presidential power.

"Minimize" Trumps influence?

I hope they neuter that prick.
