    The intent of kicking out the diplomats was to try and tie Trump's hands after the transition.

    Putin didn't bite. He again punked Obama on his way out.

    Like him or not, you have to admire his skill.

    I work with guys who are Russian. They use Cyrillic alphabet keyboards.

    Another bit of circumstantial evidence that makes you go hmmmmm.

    Ah! This is what we do know! We also know Hillary wasn't helped. Well that is all I know, perhaps others are more clairvoyant.

    You could be right but I do believe some necessary house cleaning was done....I don't like spies in our country with diplomatic immunity no matter what the fuck their agenda is.....draining the swamp is draining the swamp...no need to spin it into a campaign ping pong match....Russia is not an American political party

    I agree with you here. I do believe we need some CIA and FBI house cleaning. I feel it's become too political. At least it sure seems that way. I have no real evidence except my point of view from what we read in the news, which also could be a bunch of hot butt-air. DTS. I am also not a Russian apologist, but I just don't believe in this narrative of making enemies of people that house nuclear weapons. I'd rather be their business partner than their enemy.... call me crazy I guess.

    It's all reasonable and being born in the early 50s....I've been through the world will end anyday now so many times it like crying wolf....don't worry...it's usually sabre rattling...people want family, money, food, shelter and entertainment more than all the bullshit in the world

    You're right I'm not fooled.

    Thanks for that.

    I read Robert Reich's blog religiously. The guy is at least honest, and always good for a laugh.

    I don't understand how there is such a huge debate going about this alleged hacking. There is still no proof. The CIA saying "there's proof"....is not proof. It is a lack thereof. The burden of evidence lies on the party making the claim, this is a pretty universally accepted anecdote. I'm willing to have a debate when supposed evidence is brought to light, but right now there is no debate to be had IMO. Our government just looks silly right now making these claims. These are tactics I haven't succomb to since my parents used them on me in the third grade. Boogeyman bullshit, I ain't buying it without good reason. Your team losing is not a good reason.

    Dems are the ones that created Trump via their "pied piper" strategy.

    Also if these assholes actually cared about cyber security they should have started this uproar a year plus ago when Obama allowed various countries or groups to hack into OPM, IRS, DOE, NASA, etc.

    My info was stolen by the Chinese. I didn't see Obama do shit about 21 million people's PII get stolen. Fuck him and I could care less about this "Russian" hack narrative because it's full of shit and you can't trust democrats in office specially after confirming their corruption from wikileaks.

    They care now because they lost and they are embarrassed as well as trying to delegitimize trumps win.
