Russian Spokeman says ‘Groundless’, ‘Amateurish’, ‘Unprofessional’ Hacking Accusations ‘Reminiscent of a Witch Hunt’

In response to the official U.S. Russian Hacking report, which was ironically leaked to NBC before the President Elect could see it, Russian spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, likened American accusations to a witch hunt, hoping for more sober dialogue with Trump, once in office.

He said the report was a giant nothing burger, supported by nothing of note.

When asked if Putin had read a translated version, he said the report had nothing “that’s worth reading in detail.”

“We are observing a serious fatigue with these accusations,” Peskov told reporters on a conference call. “It truly is reminiscent of a witch-hunt.”

Peskov, commenting on the U.S. intelligence report, said: “You know, that version of the report that was made public added no substance whatsoever that we can comment on.”

“Groundless accusations which are not supported by anything are being rehearsed in an amateurish, unprofessional way. We don’t know what information they are actually relying on.”

Asked if Putin himself had read a translation of the report, Peskov said there was nothing in the document “that’s worth reading in detail.”

Peskov said that once Trump had been inaugurated on Jan. 20, work would begin on finding a date for a first meeting between the Russian and U.S. leaders.

“If some kind of contacts will be planned, then they will be planned extremely painstakingly, carefully, especially since we are talking about contacts following a very tense period in our relations,” he said, referring to disputes between the Kremlin and the Obama administration.

I understand why Hillbots want to marginalize Trump and drag out this Russia scare, neo McCarthyism, business. But, if you’re gonna do it, at least do it in a professional way and make it look real. The Obama administration has made themselves look like fucking clowns by crying like bitches over the muh Russians, without ever showing actual evidence of a hack. It’s all bullshit and has no business in the public square, other than to hurt Trump.

If Russia did hack John Podesta’s email, by finding out his password was fucking p@ssword, we should give them a medal and kick Podesta and whoever was in charge of IT for the DNC down a fucking sewer pipe for being incompetent idiots.

    There are ways to enforce good password policies. Better protections should have been in place and I hope lessons have been learned.

    Our cyber security is woefully inadequate in this country.

      Do we not convict a burglar for breaking into a home even if the window is unlocked? Russians hack-attacked. No big surprise. Sucker punch Putin at the right time. Move on. Whole thing is boring as shit. More important issues.. how the fuck did Beckham Jr. not catch that pass in the corner of the end zone and give Giants early lead?

        A good analogy in this case would be that said burglar broke into a network that is a combination, whore house, global theft ring, money laundering facility which also runs all types of fake news, peddles international influence, and attempts to set up puppet regimes around the globe…all of which is under the guise of “what’s best for us”.

        That being said…the burglar should be held in high regard for exposing these nefarious doers of evil in broad daylight.
