#1 So the story's not actually based on fact, but on the opinion of a guy who resigned three years ago? Just that should highlight the vaporous content of the story, much less being one of Hillary's remorae.

#2 What an amazing coincidence. Phil Reines, Mike Morell, Leon Panetta, a fantastic team with worldwide offices and high-level contacts. And what was it they manufactured again at BGS ?

#3 Little wonder Trump is keeping them at arm's length. I can almost hear Mike Flynn saying.....'hey boss, you don't need that redundancy every morning, ask them for updates and spot reports. I'll read the traffic for you.'

Does anyone ever really resign from Morell's 'former' employer ?

There is that odd chance we have the suspected employment relationships inverted ?

Do they give advice about diversity, too? If they were based in Birmingham instead of Washington the NYT would call that a Klan rally.

#8 Morell further suggested that the U.S. should respond in a significant way to the alleged Russian actions...

If you leave your barn door open don't come crying to me when your cows go missing and if your server gets hacked it's your own damn fault.

OK, I made a similar comment under the post about Lindsey Graham. Instead of risking a real live shooting war with Russia, how about paying attention to cyber security? Because it isn't just the Russians who are trying to hack you. The Chinese have an entire division of the PLA dedicated to cyber warfare. Then there are all kinds of smaller players; the Romanians, the Ukrainians, the Iranians, the Pakistainians, the Brazilians, the Filipinos and on and on not to mention our own government and the kid next door.

This is all a squirrel.

Yes, particularly Mr. Shedd. With the exception of Shedd and a couple of others, I'll bet they meet nearly every year or so.

#12 Which government, friendly or otherwise, would not have used the opportunity to hack Hillary's private unsecured server full of classified info?

'Annual' meets most compensation requirements.
