Secret CIA assessment says Russia was trying to help Trump win White House

[5-Points 3,766]

 

Well it seems quite clear that the document does exist and that Obama, Trump and the Gang of Eight were briefed on it (at least in the sense that it was attached to the report on Russia's meddling in the election).

 

And that's really all the media has "told us."

 

So the question is, did the intelligence community brief people on this even though they've got nothing to substantiate it? Seems difficult to believe. If for no other reason then they will look like complete idiots if this stuff is debunked.

Honestly, I've had so much on my mind the last 10 months that I don't even pay attention anymore. I just assume I'm being lied to and go from there.

 

Am I that far off?

[drobeski 3,061]

Now that he's been elected, maybe Trump can promise to be more flexible with russia. Secretly.

Anatomy of a Modern Media Political Smear

 

If they didnt continually use the same playbook (reference Trumps pre-election manufactured sex assault accusers), these insufferable political media constructs would not be so transparent. There are trillions of dollars at stake.

 

The framework for the latest narrative begins with a CNN report, constructed by a familiar set of characters (Jake Tapper, Jim Sciutto, Evan Perez and Carl Bernstein), all referencing a vague and intensely obtuse claim about Russians attempting to gain some form of opposition research leverage against President-elect Trump.

 

tapper-scuitto-perez-bernstein-clapper-comey-rogers-brennan

 

To establish the construct of their political narrative they must first set the cornerstone. The cornerstone must appear reasonable and prudent. The cornerstone establishes their high horse credibility position.

 

The team attempts to do this by presenting notification of a two page addendum to the DNI report on Russian interference with the 2016 election. The CNN crew claim the addendum discusses Russians attempting to find opposition research on Trump.

 

The existence of this addendum comes from the ever predictable unnamed official intelligence sources etc. Sound familiar? It should.

 

 

The reported claim as outlined by Jack Tapper and crew, within the addendum, stems from a political opposition research file commissioned by Team Hillary Clinton and Team Never Trump in the run up to the election and reportedly executed by a British former intelligence agent.

 

[Pause and Insert Big Flashy reminder-to-self of Democrat operative Bob Beckel saying he was headed off to England to explore potentially damaging information about Donald Trumps sexual escapades January 2nd 2016] Watch Video:

 

 

.

 

Well, well, well. See if that year old Bob Beckel CNN segment doesnt ring a few bells here in a moment.

 

CNN pushes the story today of the Russian black mail angle SEE HERE about the FBI/DNI summarizing the addendum from a 35 page oppo-research report which came as an outcome of this Clinton/NeverTrump commissioned investigation.

 

However, even CNN admits everything within the memo discussion is innuendo, allegations and unsubstantiated political rumor, ie. bullshit.

 

[] One reason the nations intelligence chiefs took the extraordinary step of including the synopsis in the briefing documents was to make the President-elect aware that such allegations involving him are circulating among intelligence agencies, senior members of Congress and other government officials in Washington, multiple sources tell CNN.

 

[] Some of the memos were circulating as far back as last summer. [] The two-page summary was written without the detailed specifics and information about sources and methods included in the memos by the former British intelligence official. (read more)

 

The entire construct is ridiculous, and these bizzarro memo claims are complete nonsense. It can be fully anticipated the 2 page addendum describing the ridiculous allegations, was largely saying they were nonsense. Especially considering the details within the memos are wrong about the geography and locales they describe in Russia.

 

However, with the cornerstone firmly in place, thanks to CNN, its off to the political races.

 

Democrat Senators fully anticipating and given advanced notice of the play, introduce the Russian Blackmail Memo Narrative at Senator Jeff Sessions confirmation hearing via Senator Al Franken.

 

The Daily Beast gleefully pushes the story. And the concerted effort of CNN and congress finally allows Buzzfeed to publish the memos they previously didnt publish out of embarrassment for the ridiculous and absurd claims within them:

 

(Via Buzzfeed) [] The dossier, which is a collection of memos written over a period of months, includes specific, unverified, and potentially unverifiable allegations of contact between Trump aides and Russian operatives, and graphic claims of sexual acts documented by the Russians.

 

CNN reported Tuesday that a two-page synopsis of the report was given to President Barack Obama and Trump. (link)

 

See what they did there? Media reports on media reports again. All timed to coincide with the beginning of President Donald Trumps cabinet confirmations.

 

See how that works?

 

Oh, and what happened to the 20 female October Surprise assault accusers? Yeah, vanished right after their usefulness was gone. We can expect the same disappearing outcome with this ridiculous CNN story line as soon as it holds no more value in diminishing the incoming White House. Playbook returns to shelf.

 

Its just how they roll.

 

These exact same characters constructed a similarly false story in August of 2016 about the Secret Service and Donald Trump Remember This Even Reuters had to call them out on the past manufactured narrative (here):

 

CNN lies 1

 

Jake Tapper, Jim Sciutto, Evan Perez and Carl Bernstein just make it up as they go along, and then coordinate with their ideological DC colleagues to sell the messaging. Its 100% manufactured FAKE NEWS, nothing more.

[TimmySmith 2,783]

All we really know for sure is that the people who made this up, did it high school detention. It's really low level stuff. Whoever buys into it is really exposing themselves.

[Frozenbeernuts 2,332]

I...think we should question what the media tells us.

 

I don't see the liberals on here jumping up and down acting like this is a smoking gun. I have seen a lot of If this is true, If he really is involved, so yeah maybe I missed a post on the 600+, but I haven't seen anyone that is blindly accepting thr first round of information.

[Sho Nuff 720]

Exactly

[Frozenbeernuts 2,332]

What strikes me a little on here, I would assume many of the Trump voters feel very patriotic in a way. They are proud of our Constitution and want to defend the freedoms we have amassed in this country.

 

Right from the start of Trump seeming more in Russia's corner, I though his defense of them was a bit odd. Russia is the opposite of what we want to be as a country. The government/KGB assassinate or imprison the most outspoken among the people. They create lies and confiscate wealth and property from people who try to legitimately go against Putin. This report isn't just about Trump. It's about Russia trying to gain strong influence throughout Europe and the US by strong arming certain people.

 

I would have just thought that those of us who feel our country stands for what is right, essentially, would have been turned off by Trump's backing of a country (or government) that does not share our core convictions. I am not saying blindly accept what the media has told us, just be a little more cautious about Russia and Trump's relationship with them.

[IGotWorms 4,063]

It'd be ironic if it was fake with all of the fake smears Trump and his (maybe) Russian team of cyber trolls has perpetrated over the last year-plus.

 

Still, I hope it isn't. Maybe intel community thought it was cute to give him a taste of his own medicine but the end result would be NO ONE could ever be believed since they've all stooped to the depths of flat-out intentionally fake news.

 

There's a news conference this morning, no? Will be interesting to see how Trump responds in a more substantive setting than a 100 character Tweet.

[Filthy Fernadez 2,696]

Aren't these Intel chiefs most likely on the way out? Is it possible they're just taking a shot at Trump on the way out the door, merely releasing info about a brief they gave Trump/Obama on information that was already in the public eye?

 

"Hey, I think people don't like you and there's a bunch of memos out there put together by anti-Trump Republicans and Democrats that we can't verify. Apparently people think you not only p!ssed them off but also p!ssed on people. The Russians may try to use this information that's already in the rumor mill."

 

I may try to use HRC's private server info against her to see if she can tell me who killed that DNC staffer died recently.

I can always envision a person deciding the scorch the earth on the way out the door. Maybe that's how Buzzfeed gets the story.

 

But multiple higher ups and multiple intelligence agencies all deciding that they are mad at Trump, so they are going to now declare this info legitimate enough to hand a report to the President and President Elect? It seems unlikely. I'd assume professionalism and an ability to not react emotionally are paramount traits needed to achieve the higher levels of the intelligence/spy game.

 

Occam's Razor, how would that apply here?

[Mike Honcho 5,435]

I'll let the FBI know you think they are wasting their time with an investigation.

Love the irony that geeks who breathlessly speculated what the next Wikileaks would bring and then would spin each wikidump into conspiracy theories that would make Big Foot believers roll their eyes have decided this they will dismiss out of hand because it's fake.

Like the liberals that told us there was nothing there from Wikileaks about Hillary before the election and it wouldn't matter yet now they are crying that it made people vote for Trump. That's funny.

Who was duped? Again...everyone talked about "if true". Even Colts was admitting its bad if True. giraldi isn't she "libtard".

 

You all are in major revisionist history mode here.

[Hardcore troubadour 15,911]

Do you put Pence in there?

 

Nobody voted for him as president and trump hasn't even been sworn in yet.

 

Can't hardly have another election though, right?

 

I'd almost go to the third in line unless you could be damn sure Pence is 100% clean on all this

Came a little too fast

Nope. But good try. Colts first post about this was how bad this looked and that he'll be impeached as soon as he gets in office.

Don't try to walk it back now like you weren't getting tricked. For God's sakes an entire thread was started because you wanted to be true

[giraldi02 476]

I continue my initial stance and if anything this whole situation verifies what I said.

 

The CIA took its gloves off against Trump. This is historically bad folks. We have government agencies carrying out vendettas against each other.

 

This isn't a liberal issue. This isn't a right issue.

[Frozenbeernuts 2,332]

I guess I don't understand your mindset here unless it's literally only to troll. The fact that the intelligence community says there is something to Russia trying to gain leverage on powerful and influential figures, and that Trump may also be compromised, this is news as of now. If it comes out that the agencies who put this out there were wrong, then that's some serious news too, that they would fabricate or embellish events just to get back at a president elect.

 

So here we are talking about it. Again I haven't seen people talk in absolutes related to his guilt. Just discussion.

Holy fock, by the looks of this, Trump might be impeached as soon as he takes office. And I am only through the 1st three pages. THanks for the link bro.

Sorry....not taken out of any context. This is exact first response to it, and there were others. But good try...for you to deflect.

I agree totally. I also think it's horrible that Donald Trump has spent the last few months undermining the CIA and FBI in the eyes of the public.

Which is worse? Our intelligence agencies around the world losing credibility or our President losing credibility? And who should we expect to be the adult? Our intelligence agencies or our leader?

 

It's a mess.

 

But I'll add this caveat. If all this turns out to be true, then the CIA was just doing it's job. And it would explain why Trump has spent the last few months wanting to establish that we can't trust our intelligence agencies.....and it would obviously explain why he refuses to say a negative word about the people with videos of him....Meh, it's a mess. But it's fun. Great times. Politics will never be this exciting again!
