One day after the president’s own secretary of state pinned the blame for the attack on Russia, Trump falsely claimed the hack was exaggerated by “the Fake News Media”

Pompeo’s comments from Friday also conflict with Trump’s notion that the hack is being blown out of proportion.

“I can’t say much more as we’re still unpacking precisely what it is, and I’m sure some of it will remain classified,” Pompeo said while adding, “This was a very significant effort.” When asked during the interview about the president’s previous silence on the matter, Pompeo said Trump was simply looking out for the safety of the American people. He said that sometimes the “wiser course of action to protect the American people is to calmly go about your business and defend freedom,” the secretary said., the FBI’s cyber division said preliminary indications suggested whoever was responsible had “a high level of sophistication consistent with a nation-state.

Although Trump may say he is not worried, the breach has both federal officials and Congress concerned. Rep. Jason Crow told CNN on Friday that the hack is comparable to the attack on Pearl Harbor.“We think that almost 20,000 different entities, both private companies and government agencies, downloaded and used that software … It’s extremely dangerous,” he says.

God. The sooner this asshole goes away the better.

That is a Lie and Miss Information. Read / Watch it all over and then Peak the Truth !!!!!!

Trump demonstrating he's an apologist for Putin &is a Russian asset. He's always pretended Russian hackers &disinfo agents didn't interfere in U.S. elections,&refused to even complain to Putin about Russia paying bounties for assassination of U.S. troops in Afghanistan. TRAITOR

Mike..haul off and give him one up side the head.

Because he's a traitor.

PutinOwnsTrump

This really is the Achilles heal of realDonaldTrump. As soon as something bad happens his ego prevents him from accepting it and acting appropriately. Just like Covid. Downplay. Deny. Deflect.

This fucker was talking with traitor Flynn in the WH last night about martial law. At what point do his supporters acknowledge that he’s owned by Russia?

THE BEST WH asset the Kremlin has ever had.

Sure, I trust him. When has he ever lied to us?
