Ok. If you don’t eat cheese or bacon, fine. I completely get it. It’s healthier, it’s better for the environment, you keep kosher, whatever. Totally on board.

It’s not about the prostitutes. Ignore that sex workers were involved.

Donald Trump was and is acting in the interests of a foreign power. That could very well be treason.

Right? I mean seriously people, who sees the possibility of the elected president of the nation being beholden to a foreign power as an issue? Same old same old.

Apparently we’re supposed to gain power through apathy about treason?

In this instance there is mountains of evidence already and more to come. When did multiple intelligence agencies think that Obama was not American?  Have good night :)

Dumb bs? trump being blackmailed by the russians to be their puppet is dumb? Get out of here with that crap.

This is the problem with the death penalty, it costs the government TONS of money, in legal fees, appeals, medical costs (because they have to keep you alive just to eventually kill you), not to mention that day to day life on death row is actually better than day to day in general population. I honestly do not care…

He’s a murderer, a terrorist, an unapologetic racist, and an evil piece of shit.

She just glosses right over the fact that the public report is declassified material. Does she assume the classified versions also don’t “divulge any evidence”?

I don’t get the weird cognitive dissonance among Trump supporters (and Trump himself) who seem to want to pretend this never happened. Hiding his head in the sand and attacking our own intelligence officers doesn’t help.

Wow, facts, instead of more knee jerk left wing defense of all things Russian, as if they were still the glorious communist paradise and not the authoritarian pile of oligarch shit.

She is only 25 years old, and a “weekend” writer for Jezebel. What the hell do you expect? The people that write for this place aren’t exactly competing for a Pulitzer.

The use of the “but they were wrong about the WMDs!” argument might be the scariest thing about this whole issue for me. The very people who insisted that it was unamerican to question the invasion of Iraq are now using that invasion (based, as you said, on partisan manipulation of classified intelligence) to…

All I’m getting out of this is that whoever wrote the NYT piece doesn’t understand what an analysis is. The report’s declassified, of course it’s not going to have any of the actual intel that led them to their conclusion in it. And fuck whatever Putin’s mouthpieces are saying, they’re irrelevant because we know…

The intel community being wrong about Iraq WMDs is going to be the new McDonalds hot coffee lawsuit thing isn’t it? By which I mean it’s a shibboleth that identifies the invoker as someone who knows absolutely nothing about what they’re talking about.

Lol aw shucks we didn’t get Argrebaut’s approval 😱 What will we ever do with ourselves? How can we continue to live? You got me!

Those are not equally likely because you are a know-nothing with your fingers in your ears and eyes closed shut.

I literally just told you the reason to not present evidence is that high value assets would be exposed and their lives in danger. You can believe whatever you want but if you truly believe the FBI, CIA, and NSA got together and spun a huge lie well, maybe they are dumping the chemtrails over my house too.

Hannah, I’m disappointed in the clickbait title. Claiming these agencies “did not present evidence” is not merely misleading but untrue. You are spreading same sort of misinformation that drives clicks for conspiracy bloggers and Fox News.

Guesswork is part of intelligence work, always has been. This reminds me of the folks that hoot and yell about evolution only being a “theory”. Reading the cyber attack tea leaves is not the same as making a judgement to go to war over nonexistent WMD’s, that’s a straw man right there.
