GOP Lawmaker Suggests Russians May Have Done the Media’s Job
Thursday Obama issued sanctions on Russia and booted out 35 diplomats over a “hacking report” that has ZERO facts regarding Russians hacking the DNC to help Donald Trump win an election.

Zero.
Congressman Trent Franks points out, even if the Russians did access the DNC information, it’s not like they were spreading lies. They were actually doing the job of our (dishonest) media.
From The Hill:
Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) on Thursday appeared to praise the publication of Democratic emails, believed to be stolen by Russian operatives, on WikiLeaks.
“If anything, whatever they might have done was to try to use information in a way that may have affected something that they believed was in their best interests,” Trent said on MSNBC.
“If Russia succeeded in giving the American people information that was accurate, then they merely did what the media should have done,” he added.
The intelligence community has described the hacks and subsequent release of stolen emails as an attempt by the Russian government to “interfere” in the U.S. election.
