STO,
If I had brought that up about Gen. Kelly and  the $4 million bucks you'd be  stomping all over my post claiming I made it up or lied, but here NW Lynn provides  an 'unsubstantiated' claim and you plead ignorance? but with my 'substantiated' facts you accuse me of misinformation?  Right here on this post is a blatant example of  hypocrisy. Facts?  They only matter if the person presenting them is agreeing with you.  The 17 agencies never went any further than some light scratching around and hastily put together a nice sounding document  that has lots of official words and 'language' but doesn't really say anything. It all boils down to an educated guess or hunch by some high up 'suits' in the spy industry scraping up something really fast to please an out-going President, while embarrassing  the incoming.  On that score, they done pretty good.  But it's still a theory. And the sanctions are just so much tit for tat and basically meaningless.
