In another smack down before the con artist visits his puppet master, the Senate Intelligence Committee wholeheartedly agree with the nation's intelligence services that Russia deliberately worked to aid the con artist and to this day, continues to work to undermine Democracy.
“As numerous intelligence and national security officials in the Trump administration have since unanimously re-affirmed, the ICA findings were accurate and on point," said Mark Warner (D-Va.), vice chairman of the Intelligence Committee, in a statement on Tuesday. "The Russian effort was extensive and sophisticated, and its goals were to undermine public faith in the democratic process, to hurt Secretary Clinton and to help Donald Trump."
“While the ICA briefly discussed the activities of the Internet Research Agency, the Committee's investigation has exposed a far more extensive Russian effort to manipulate social media outlets to sow discord and to interfere in the 2016 election and American society," according the summary.
Of note, the committee's report also says that it "finds the difference in confidence levels between the NSA and the CIA and FBI on the assessment that "Putin and the Russian Government aspired to help President-elect Trump's election chances" appropriately represents analytic differences and was reached in a professional and transparent manner." The CIA and FBI made their assessment with "high" confidence, while the NSA's was only "moderate."
