Russia, Hacking and the Democrat Party
In early December 2016 the United States government agencies leaked a preliminary report to the Washington Post that the Russian government was behind the hacking of the Democrat National Committee staff and some of Hillary Clinton's Presidential campaign staff.
The question I am asking is why did they leak that report? Did they do it for political reasons?
Why didn't the intelligence agencies wait until the full report was completed and given to President Obama and let him or his staff inform the American people. In fact the full report was not given to President Obama until yesterday, Thursday 1-5-2016, which begs the question why did President Obama expel Russian diplomats prior to receiving the full report?
