The MSM has reported so many lies about Trump. There has also been excessive spin, lies by omission, and laughable sensationalism.
Let's get some names and put people under oath. Let's see some videos.
BTW: when is a story about Trump "news for nerds?"
This is a hacking story, not a Trump story. Although people seemed to quickly politicize this with sharply contrasting opinion based on their own partisan arguments.
I'll address a few of the arguments presented here, first of all, a campaign contribution doesn't have to be financial, but has a worth, so a contribution even given at not cost to a campaign or party still has value financially, and if its not disclosed that can violate campaign fiance laws. Also the information from the hacks was used by both the RNC and many campaigns across the country in the 2016 elections so the hack aided more than just the Trump campaign in that aspect.
People also mention that the hack took place in 2014 but the article states that Dutch hackers gained access in 2014 but continued to follow the russian hacking group for more than a year and a half. Campaigns don;t just function in the year of the election so all of the time leading up to the actual vote is part of the 2016 campaign
I wouldn't expect the exact sources and methods that many here demand as the proof to be revealed to the public but hope that the evidence that was turned over to the proper authorities remained classified but was used to support the investigation into the Russian interference into not only the US elections but their efforts to meddle in elections world wide.
Lastly we should be able to separate our partisan concerns and unite under the idea that the fair free and impartial elections are an important part of any democracy and threats to that should be a concern for all of us no matter what country or party we support
Weren't these machines banned in Europe over health concerns from radiation exposure? I know that these are prisoners but shouldn't the health effects of such a machine be studied prior to deploying stuff like this out into the world? http://science.howstuffworks.c...
Let's see that would mean that they are basing these statistics on a sample of 50 people, okay perhaps, other factors not studied may have influnenced this small sample size like say depression, personality type, motivation levels etc... how can you apply these statistics universally?
This could also affect how you pay for your medications, as of right now, where I live in NC if you have a Health Savings account or a Flexible Spending account for your medical payments, you can no longer use them to pay for non-prescription medications, I think this is a good idea, as long as it isnt a ploy by insurance companies to get out of having to pay for the medications
What were the other 34% of unconstitutional searches for? My understanding is that only 3 out of over 700 warrantless searches and wiretaps were for cases that involved terrorism. This is why there were FISA courts in the the first place to prevent these kinds of abuses. Welcome to the land of the free and the home of the brave, that is until someone decides to declare you an enemy of the state.
