Why the suspense?

I mean we can pretty much guess without “US government officials” telling us.

You know what will be really delicious? When someone from the I.R.A. in St. Petersburg or a Useful Idiot shows up in the comments section on this English-language Web site to spread disinformation about Russia spreading disinformation on other English-language Web sites.

I think Putin considers Trump himself to be a website… there to convey whatever he wants plastered on it. Trump the Façade.

Good work!

Number 1 fits the bill, with Trump and Zuck mutually snurfling each others’ crotches.
Number 2 is one confused kid.
Number 3… duh.

I think white-hats in the CIA, et al, are in a good position to hack those three sites with great ease and successfully blame it on rouge FSB agents. Why not.
