Here is the Warning Hillary gave us all, about Russia 2016 influence.

Just to clear up any recent statements:

http://people.com/politics/hillary-clinton-wikileaks-hack-debate-russia/

October 19, 2016 10:21 PM
Hillary Clinton was ready when the WikiLeaks hack of her campaign chairman, John Podesta, came up during the third and final presidential debate on Wednesday night.

After the moderator Chris Wallace quoted a line from a speech Clinton gave to a Brazilian bank – revealed in the hacked emails – the Democratic nominee took it as an opportunity to point out what she sees as the biggest takeaway from the WikiLeaks hack – the Russian government’s alleged involvement.

“You are very clearly quoting from WikiLeaks and what’s really important about WikiLeaks is that the Russian government has engaged in espionage against Americans,” Clinton told Wallace.

“They have hacked American websites, American accounts of private people, of institutions, then they have given that information to WikiLeaks for the purpose of putting it on the Internet,” she added.

“This has come from the highest levels of the Russian government, clearly from [Vladimir] Putin himself, in an effort – as 17 of our intelligence agencies have confirmed – to influence our election.

“So I actually think the most important question of this evening, Chris, is finally will Donald Trump admit that the Russians are doing this and that he rejects Russian espionage?”
----------

Hillary Clinton knew of the Russian influence, warned us, & publicly stated it with Sen Sanders, Chris Wallace & the world listening to her words.

Everybody did know. Hillary warned us all.

Thank you.

Thank you for setting the record straight as anyone could see who did a little research.

A masterful performance. Just brilliant.

A lioness in wait for her prey, circling, circling, then , "oh-no- he- didn't -just-go -there ... ". Grrrrrrrrrrrr ...

..and she did it with calmness and the utmost politeness .

of people disliked the Republican agenda but believed the Democrats have no agenda. Somehow linking agenda items to hate-based racist dogwhistles and whomped-up fake fears makes them stick in the brain.

Calling for even huge things like minimum wage, affordable college and universal healthcare without linking them to hate and fear doesn't have not only the same sticking power, but any sticking power at all. Much less others among the many items on the Democratic Party agenda.

Even the abandonment and betrayal of Puerto Rico, the inhumane treatment of immigrants, and the most recent 13 dead teenagers do not cause appalled people to remember that the Democratic Party's positions on these kinds of issues are extremely different.

any presidential candidate, ever.However, a huge sector of the public bought it.

Also, Nader played a major role in making the election close enough to steal.

Tweedle DEE, freaking ralph nader.

I remember the m$m.. also attacking Al Gore because someone came out with bush's DUI in Maine at the eleventh hour.

I also thought that since bush was in office.. the m$m would hold him responsible for his actions.. I was WRONG.

That whole time period is ingrained in my memory, oasis. It's when I first entered politics. Late to the fray.

I got a computer so I could get on DU.. I had read about it in a Nation Mag I bought in NYC.

It is surreal how this happened. I hope every night that there is someway that we can make it right. That Trump and his administration is somehow prosecuted and we can hand the presidency to the rightful winner.
