WaPo - Dec 9, 2016 | Secret CIA assessment says Russia was trying to help Trump win White House
My Take:
NYT, WaPo reporting that at a CIA report to a secret briefing of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence says Russia hacked the Democratic National Committee to aid the Trump campaign.
It should be understood that by saying this publicly the government of the US has stated that it believes that Russia has committed an Act of War against the United States.

So the same national security cabal that worked behind the scenes to derail Obama's agreement with Russia to fight together against the terrorists in Syria (and stop trying to overthrow the Assad government using the terrorists at the same time) is now pillorying Trump's stated foreign policy pivot towards the same idea.
Now that policy has Trump in an impossible position - he must now change it or risk being arrested as an agent for a foreign power with which the state he is about to ascend to the leadership of is ostensibly at war with.
It sounds very Roman ... Caesar-ish.
Russia is the pivot upon which all of this turns because they are the regional power in the way to the US Empire's expanded primacy in Western and Central Asia (oil, gas uranium, coal...).
With this American expansion Russia will loose hegemony over her access to the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, and the countries proximate - and thus be reduced from a dominant regional Central Asian power to a land locked Central European power. This at the same time will reduce the US reliance on Turkey as an ally as she will no longer be the western linchpin for western hegemony of the Eastern Mediterranean. Thus Turkey looses leverage, as does Israel (ironically), and Saudi Arabia (to a much lesser extent - as long as the light crude lasts).
Interesting Times.
So the take away is - these machinations reveal clearly for the first time, that the US Republic is de facto, over; it has been replaced by a powerful patrician class which runs an Imperial Empire from behind the vestiges of the Republic (Congress, Administration Judiciary) which could at any moment replace them all - without a functional hiccup - with an all powerful Emperor ...
.. And, we are about to go to war with Russia - likely in Syria, Iran and the Black Sea.
This Third World War will at minimum, result in destruction of entire regions of the planet with likely a 700,000,000 death toll before it's over.
Of coarse a mass movement against the never-ending-war-on-whatever-it-is-this-week could go a long way to stopping all that ... .
