What would people be saying if 17 intelligence agencies

That is still FAKENEWS no matter how many times you post it, and no matter how many times it is refuted.

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): We've been told 17 of our intelligence agencies are sure that the computers of the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee were hacked by Russians, under the direct orders of Putin himself.

The only problem is, we don't have 17 intelligence agencies, so now we've got fake news stories to bolster the claim of the president and the Democrats losing the election.


and.........

The recent propaganda alleging that "17 intelligence agencies" produced a consensus of determinations that concluded Russia hacked the election is FAKE NEWS. What happened is that 2 agencies produced a report in which they said they "spoke on behalf of" our 17 intelligence agencies when they state THEIR OWN beliefs on the matter. All that means is that those 2 agency heads are at the top of the food chain in government intelligence and get to be the official voice of the "intelligence community." So, in other words, they were just irrationally appealing to the authority of 17 agencies under them that had nothing to do with the investigation at all. It's does NOT mean that all 17 agencies did their own tests or made their own determinations or even made a statement on the matter individually. In fact, they did NONE of that. This is no different from President Obama or Trump going to a foreign meeting and saying, "on behalf of the 50 states of America, we believe that Israel should not build in the 'occupied territory.'" He has the authority to speak for the United States, but his comments and beliefs no more represent what all 50 states believe than a man on the moon.

Turning 2 into 17 is fake news.
