Apologies if this has already been posted for discussion, but if you haven't watched this "Frontline" report, check it out. Unfortunately, part 1 dropped off my on demand list, but today I watched part 2. The report clearly lays out what Putin and his allies did and how they disrupted the 2016 election.

The part where all the Congressional leaders (McConnell, Ryan, Reid, Pelosi, the Intel Cmte chairs) are briefed by Brennan and Jeh Johnson is jaw-dropping in that the Republicans tell Obama not only that they won't be part of a bi-partisan statement on the Russian interference, but that they would use anything Obama said as proof that he was "putting his thumb on the scale for Clinton".

I know all of what's in the story has been reported before, but Frontline does a great job of laying everything out step-by-step.
