that person because here's what that person should have done. Here are the numbers, but they're preliminary and they're only accurate to within like a thousand percent. Which means you would understand they're useless. Now if you were the boss, you'd say, "Hey, wait a minute. You're acting like your organization is terrible." Because if that's your best estimate is within a thousand percent of bei…

So let me remind you what this Russian interference was allegedly. So the accusation is that the Russian military intelligence, the GRU, hacked the DNC as well as other emails like John Podesta. Now, how do you and I know that the Russian military intelligence hacked those? How would we know? Because our government told us they did, right? But they can't tell us how they know that.
And do you believe that these Russian hackers are so bad that we can detect them and find them? Do we live in a world where the US anti-hacking people, you know, our cybersecurity is so good that we just happen to know that you hacked and we can track you down and we'll find you. And we find these highly capable hackers who don't have a way to secure their own safety. There's something so wrong with this story. It's like laughably implausible that it just happened to be the Russians doing it and we easily caught them.
Okay. So I wouldn't believe anything that comes from our intelligence people about their intelligence people.
Let's see. There was also that troll factory that reached millions of people on social media. They spent over $100,000 on ads. A $100,000 on ads, but they don't tell you what the ads were. I've actually seen the memes and the ads. There isn't the slightest chance any of that could have changed the vote. They look like a high school project. And of course, nobody ever says that. Nobody ever says, "But how good were these troll farm memes." They weren't even a scale of 1 to 10. They were ones that they barely even registered.
So what else? And then they looked into some systems that didn't have anything to do with changing votes and that's about it. Oh, and there was that Paul Manafort thing where he was scamming a Russian billionaire and he got caught and went to jail, but that was just him. And then there were contacts with the Trump campaign. So there were lots of contacts like there was a meeting in Trump Tower where dirt on Clinton was offered and then there was Papadopoulos. So basically this is just Trump people talking to other people who had approached them. That's it. That's the Russian interference. And then RT and Sputnik. And of course, those are just propaganda.
Anyway, that's enough of that.

oing a long interview in 2016. So that's when this whole Russia collusion hoax stuff was boiling. And once it's fascinating to watch given what we now know because we now know that he knows he was lying through his teeth. It is so much more interesting to watch when you know he's lying and squirming to make sure he doesn't say the wrong thing. So I'd recommend that if you're on my X feed, either l…
