WaPo has done a very good job of claiming Mitch McConnell was evil for not making a statement that preceded IC attribution last fall.

Most people who spout WaPo's story (mindlessly) don't think that through. Why should McConnell's attribution PRECEDE the IC's?

Until October 7 McConnell had, at the very least, cover for not making a statement, bc neither had the IC.

Moreover, until September 20, DHS was affirmatively saying the voter reg probes were criminal hackers.https://publicintelligence.net/dhs-election-cyber-threats/ …

I am VERY happy to condemn Mitch when he deserves it (cf ACHA). But please understand the facts you're all misrepresenting.

Again, I do think GOP is involved in coverup. I do think GOP refused help bc they like fucking with their own state elections.

Are you claiming that Brennan's briefings to the Gang of 8 in Aug was meaningless simply b/c there was no formal IC assessment doc yet?

I find Brennan's briefings irresponsible. You don't do Gang of 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1 briefings.

Briefings with two or more in the same room, as Gang of Eight briefings are normally done?
