    How a teen hacker sentenced to 45-years in prison became a CIA agent... and then a multimillionaire
    • James Kosta came off the rails and divorced his parents at 13
    • At 14, he was convicted of 45 counts of technical burglary and convicted to 45 years in prison
    • Instead he was allowed to join the Navy at 18 as intelligence analyst
    • At 20 he joined the CIA tracking funds of warlords in Africa and Middle East
    • At 24 he sold his first dotcom company for tens of millions of dollars
    • Now 37 his games development firm turns over more than $10m a year
    • He also mentors 'troubled youth' to help unlock their potential
    • 'When you look a little deeper, as people did with me, you're able to get kids focused on their potential'

    They changed the voters minds. All those Trump voters would have voted for Hillary, no doubt.

    Yeah, this is much better now. The switch is welcome after about 80 years of trying to get us to vote for Communist.

    I don't know if it did. That's one of the reasons why the investigation is required. We know the hacks were attempted by a foreign govt., we need to do research to see what successes and failures occurred. Perhaps the election was swayed, perhaps not, but a full understanding can make our election systems more secure in the future.

    Any collusion is an important but different issue. This is about protecting our elections and the sanctity of our votes. Your vote and mine.

    Isn't investigation part of why we have the FBI and the CIA? What is the is a special counsel to do that they don't?

    That's also why we have mechanisms for a special counsel. Especially to make sure there is not even an appearance of impropriety when it comes to such fundamental issues.

    Be independent. For some reason which no Trump supporter can explain, Trump acts very guilty about this whole subject and has tried to get the investigation stopped.

    I am pretty happy with our election. Like I say, after 80 years of trying to get us to elect communist, the change in preference is welcome.

    I don't know what Trump wants. But I want it stopped. I has no basis for happening, it sole purpose is a distraction.

    No. But it is an improvement in taste over the prior 80 years.

    What the fuck are you talking about? This appears to be a total impropriety by the left and the deep state. Without basis in the Constitution.

    I expect Jay Sekulow and Allan Dershowitz to show you soon. When they do, I expect you to thank them for the lessons learned.

    so you are fine with Russia attempting to hack the election systems of at least 21 states as long as your guy wins? If so, no further discussion needed.

    in this technological age, it would be incredibly easy to have everyone vote on their phone. would be easy to check your vote after the fact to prevent fraud, and be completely transparent.
    The CIA could easily fake anything. LIKE THE MOON LANDING!?
