Narrative Shift: Russian Hacking Claims Move to Third Party Actors and Away from Putin Himself Directing Operation; CNN Apologizes For Ex-CIA Guest Calling Assange a Pedophile

Former CIA shill, Phil Mudd, took to CNN yesterday in an attempt to both smear Wikileaks’ Julian Assange and also help change the narrative regarding alleged, muh, Russian hacks on the U.S. Presidential elections.

Notice how the rhetoric has shifted from Putin himself directing the hacks to a third party being directed by the Russians? Also, he called Assange a pedophile, the very thing John Podesta’s emails caused many to believe in an underground child trafficking ring called ‘Pizzagate.’

In keeping with the theme of providing no proof to the general public, the officials declined to describe the intelligence obtained about the involvement of a third-party in passing on leaked material to WikiLeaks, saying they did not want to reveal how the U.S. government had obtained the information. So just trust them, please.

The shift in the narrative is curious because as a reminder, officials had concluded “months earlier” that Russian intelligence agencies had directed the hacking, but had been less certain that they could prove Russia also had controlled the release of information damaging to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. It now appears that along with lack of evidence, the attention has shifted to an “intermediary” as being the responsible party .

Here’s Phil Mudd, lying his ass off, in a CNN ‘interview’ aka propaganda skit.

As a result of this interview, Wikileaks threatened to sue CNN for defamation.

CNN apologized for the permitting their analyst to defame Assange, in the most egregious of ways, and issued this statement.

    spy versus spy going on here. the leak source has to be protected even if turning coats is involved. Still entertaining but brings nothing. The goods have been administered for now until the next event. The wild card is if and when the population decides to speak again. That is the power if it can be harnessed.

      One must ponder what in the fuck is the point of all this rhetoric? It seems we’re trying to lure russia into a war.

        That is exactly what 0bama is trying to do. Imagine if for the past 16 years you were banking billions on war dollars and that was starting to go from full throttle to an old man enlarged prostate trickle. Your entire way of life would be at risk as companies went broke. We have had a taste of the war machine dollars and we must keep feeding it to get the votes, thus 0bama will work to get us into another war to keep the money rolling. The rabbit hole runs deep.

    Of course they are shifting because they know the public didn’t accept a reproduced FireEye report about APT28 and APT29. Bottom line, they are full of shit and searching to create outs that they can lean on. The more people like John McAfee (an expert in every right at security and malware) blow holes in their stories the more they have to start watering it down and producing more “Trust us on this, if you don’t then you are anti-American. How apropos.

    If you don’t want your shenanigans revealed to the world, don’t use p@ssword as your password and use two-factor authentication (something you have and something you know).
