Bipartisan Senate report says 2017 intel assessment about Russian interference and Trump accurate

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/bipartisan-senate-report-says-2017-intel-assessment-about-russian-interference-n1188696


"A bipartisan investigation by the Senate Intelligence Committee has validated the January 2017 U.S. intelligence assessment describing Russia interference in the 2016 presidential election — including Russian efforts to help Donald Trump — describing it as accurate, thorough, and untainted by political bias.
Click here to read the report.

"The Committee found no reason to dispute the Intelligence Community's conclusions," said Chairman Richard Burr, R-N.C.
The CIA and other spy agencies produced the assessment during the final weeks of the Obama administration, and a version of it was made public on Jan. 6, 2017. It told a story of a Russian covert operation designed to undermine American democracy that evolved into an attempt to help Trump win."

Remember how Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi were ranting and raving how the Democrats were using "McCarthy like tactics" to attack poor mother Russia?

Trump's presidency has to be the greatest intelligence operation success of all times. They have taken the White House and converted 40% of the population without a single Russian casualty. Putin is the Stable Genius.
