2016 ELECTION/RUSSIA: "Russian President Vladimir Putin personally ordered an intelligence operation against the U.S. presidential campaign and ultimately sought to help Donald Trump win the White House, according to a new U.S. intelligence report released Friday [1-13-17], shortly after the president-elect appeared to dismiss its key findings.
Putin both 'aspired to help' Trump in November and to 'harm' Trump’s rival, Democratic nominee and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, with leaks of pilfered emails and other covert activities, the report concludes in a dramatic expansion of official U.S. accusations against the Kremlin."
