U.S. intel officials: Dems, Trump distorting info on Russian meddling

What the intelligence doesn't show, the officials said, is that the Russians are actively taking steps to help Trump now. That was also true in the 2016 election, public intelligence reports say — the Russians at first sought to sow chaos, then moved to actively supporting Trump.that he had been briefed that the Russians were trying to help his campaign. He didn't say how or why.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., speaks during a campaign rally at Vic Mathias Shores Park in Austin, Texas on Feb. 23, 2020.In contrast, President Trump and his national security adviser, Robert O'Brien, have sidestepped questions about how they would respond to foreign election interference, and have instead put the focus on the Democrats. By doing so, they have also played politics with intelligence and national security, current and former officials say.

"I think it's disgraceful," the president said, speaking not about Russian election interference, but about leaks describing the Feb. 13 classified briefing to House lawmakers. The official, who spoke to people who participated in crafting the intelligence analysis that was briefed to lawmakers, said the intelligence assessment that Russia favors Trump called upon a variety of sources from agencies across the government."This is not a matter of interpretation. It is the product of a tradecraft that has been in place for decades, designed with truth as a central premise.

Ooooooo.... do ya think? Why is it that you suddenly care only when it involves 'both sides'?

Ya mean the former officials that now work for and CNN?

Way to 'both sides' it guys. I guess you're in the tank for Trump.

Facts have shown the intel community is politically biased & are leaking intel to the media for political purposes.

Both sides are owned by the same oligarchs who buy & sell them so of course they're both going to distort the facts so that the sleeping sheep - the American people - don't realize that both parties are two sides of the same counterfeit coin.

Wouldn’t it be fair to say that NBC & msnbc meddle with elections everyday with misinformation.

You all are truly useless tools. Election day can't come fast enough.

marginalizing the russian interference is in effect is not a good idea

Everyone knows the dems hands are not clean!

DNCRigging?

They can use congress ..

Interference is misinformation. If misinformation is meddling- Dems and their networks are meddling every single day

WHAT A JOKE! Why would anyone with the best economy in 50 years need another countries help?

Any Trump loyalist who asks to see the actual intelligence is a Russian Asset.

Both parties? Lmaooo 'fine people on both sides' card

Shocking.....😑
