According to Fox News<\/a>, the President has announced that his administration will “take action” against “Russian hacking” of the Presidential election.<\/p>\n

The tough talk from Obama came in an interview scheduled to air on National Public Radio Friday. It followed complaints of Republican lawmakers that federal authorities refuse to brief them on investigations into Russia’s role in leaking tensof thousands of damaging emails from top Clinton campaign officials. <\/p>\n

“I think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections … we need to take action,” Obama said. “And we will \u2014 at a time and place of our own choosing. Some of it may be explicit and publicized; some of it may not be.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Julius Assange<\/a>, the WikiLeaks founder, Russia was not the source of the emails;<\/p>\n

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange denied Thursday that hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta were stolen and passed to his organization by Russian state actors. <\/p>\n

“Our source is not the Russian government,” Assange told “The Sean Hannity Show.”<\/p>\n

“So in other words, let me be clear,” Hannity asked, “Russia did not give you the Podesta documents or anything from the DNC?”<\/p>\n

“That’s correct,” Assange responded. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The media is fond of calling the election results “hacked” even though the only thing hacked was Democrat campaign emails. There is no evidence that anyone hacked the actual vote tally, but the media likes to use the term giving us that impression. No one is denying any of the content of the emails is inaccurate – you know, the part that actually turned voters against Hillary, supposedly.<\/p>\n

Also, today, Facebook says that they’re going to begin a war against “fake news” on their website. I wonder if their standard will include these stories about a “hacked election”. <\/p>\n

If anyone really wants to do something about how the Democrats lost the election last month, they should change the way they are portrayed in the emails, the way that they do business. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
