NSA leaker reveals more Russian hacking
FACEBOOK FACEBOOK.COM/ USATODAYOPINION A federal contractor was arrested in Georgia Monday in connection with a classified National Security Agency report on Russian election interference published by the online publication “The Intercept.”
The Russia-Trump scandal just keeps expanding. It’s just a matter of time until we find out if there was collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign, or more likely an unwitting accomplice from his inner circle who was outsmarted by the Kremlin experts.
Keep in mind that there is way more to the story that cannot be released until the investigation is completed. Tracy Woods
I think this is evidence on Russian hacking. Trump supporters can’t deny it anymore. This woman was wrong in revealing classified information, but it does support what all intelligence communities were already saying. Jeff Hartung
There could be 20 sources, each with individual videos with perfect audio of President Trump accepting an open briefcase of cash from Russian President Vladimir Putin himself, and it wouldn’t matter anyway. Trump supporters wouldn’t care. Nice job, America. Rance Mohammitz
Don’t you just love the liberals who are still in meltdown mode after all of these months? What are they going to do after they strike out on Thursday during James Comey’s testimony? It will be yet another disappointment, just like: Nov. 8, the recount that Green Party candidate Jill Stein requested, the attempt to sway Electoral College voters, etc. Liberals are running out of ideas.
This is no smoking gun. Doug Steltenpohl
Not releasing that Russia tried to hack into our presidential election should be the crime, not the other way around! How backwards and Soviet-like have we become?
This not only undermines our faith in government, it also undermines our elections by not telling us about it. That’s the crime! Edward J. Hale TWITTER @USATOPINION Our followers shared their thoughts on the federal contractor who was arrested after a classified report from the National Security Agency on the Russian election hacking was published online. Couldn’t this woman be considered a whistle-blower? @uhlmary1 This doesn’t change the Trump-Russia investigation. @GDT0429 I’m sure President Trump would have preferred to bury this information deep. She sounds like a hero. @nedrow_aj So what’s the maximum sentence if she’s found guilty? I hope she gets the book thrown at her. @lemonbar4948 If she hadn’t leaked this information, it would likely have been covered up by the government. I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole thing isn’t deeper. @RomeoandTHOT For more, follow @USATOpinion or #tellusatoday.
