Priebus: Trump ready to accept Russia hacking report, if CIA, FBI get on same page

NOW PLAYINGPriebus calls report about Russian hacking 'ridiculous'
Incoming White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus suggested Sunday that President-elect Donald Trump will accept that Russia is behind the hacking of Democrats' email accounts during the 2016 White House election if the leaders of the U.S. intelligence community draft a report with that consensus agreement.

“I think he would accept the conclusion if they would get together, put out a report and show the American people they are on the same page,” Priebus said on “Fox News Sunday.”

Trump won the presidential race in an upset victory over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, whose campaign was hurt by a raft of emails hacked from campaign chairman John Podesta’s personal account, then released by WikiLeaks.

The Trump campaign has suggested the effort to tie Russia to the leaks is an attempt to delegitimize his victory.

“There’s no evidence that shows the outcome of the elections was changed by a couple of dozen John Podesta emails,” Priebus, who is still chairman of the Republican National Committee, also said Sunday.

He added that the intelligence community is “almost there” on a consensus finding about Russia’s involvement.
“I think they’ll get there,” he said.

Priebus suggested that the Trump team accepts CIA Director John Brennan’s statement that Russia was involved. However, he remains wary about news media reports that FBI Director James Comey agrees.

“Not when you have multiple people saying different things through third parties and media reports,” Priebus told “Fox News Sunday.” “It would be nice to hear from everybody.”

Priebus also said he was “100 percent confident” that the Senate will confirm Exxon/Mobile CEO Rex Tillerson as Trump’s pick to be the next secretary of state.

He also said he expected “everything to fall in line” Monday when the Electoral College votes to officially make Trump president and that Trump’s recent statements and actions don’t suggest that the president-elect is interested in “revisiting the [United States’] One-China policy right now.”

We need to see the proof. Show us the proof.

The liberals are leading us around by the nose. We are all talking about whether or not the Russians hacked Democrat emails. We are obsessed with who did the hacking. There is one little thing nobody talks about. Nobody questions the truth of the information itself. No one has proven that the information leaked (a.k.a. hacked) is not true because it is true.

So with a mountain of proof of massive Democrat corruption it is Donald Trump who is on the defensive as if he were the bad guy, as if the Russians anointed him president rather than Trump was elected in part because the truth of Democrat corruption was exposed by leaked emails. But people with little knowledge will assume the emails were false simply because of the accusations that the information came from the Russians, and that too is part of the liberal strategy.

But it is almost certain that the leaked information came from whistleblowers within our own government.

Come on people stop letting the liberals control the debate. The next time somebody yells about the Russians, ask them if the leaked information is true or not. It is true.

What concerns me most is the CIA involvement in this. They are putting out stories, stirring up trouble right here in our own country.

We know, really we do, that's what they do around the world when our government wants to get involved.

Are they trying to pit us against one another to the point, something will erupt?

As far fetched as it sounds, it's something they are very good at doing.

ASK HOW THE FBI KNEW THE DNC HAD BEEN HACKED BEFORE THE DNC KNEW IT HAD BEEN HACKED.
