Why did Russia and the Ukraine interfere with our elections?

After nearly three years and millions of tax dollars, the Trump-Russia collusion probe is about to be resolved. Emerging in its place is newly unearthed evidence suggesting another foreign effort to influence the 2016 election — this time, in favor of the Democrats. Ukraine’s top prosecutor divulged in an interview aired Wednesday on Hill.TV that he has opened an investigation into whether his country’s law enforcement apparatus intentionally leaked financial records during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign about then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort in an effort to sway the election in favor of Hillary Clinton. If Ukraine law enforcement figures who worked frequently with the U.S. Embassy did leak the Manafort documents in an effort to influence the American election for Clinton, the public deserves to know who knew what, and when.

    Because we haven't bombed them for doing so that's why.

    You do know that is an editorial and not a news story, and it's third hand hearsay. Paul Manafort is a convicted criminal who was the former Trump Campaign Chairman.

    John Solomon is a right wing nut.

    In August 2017, the Berkman Klien Center published a report that documented media failures in the 2016 presidential election titled: “Partisanship, Propaganda and Disinformation.” A section of that report outlined how Steve Bannon and Peter Schweizer weaponized the narrative that Hillary was corrupt by planting a story in the New York Times from the latter’s book Clinton Cash on the so-called “Uranium One deal,” which eventually became a major story during the campaign. No one has done more to keep that particular conspiracy theory alive—even after it has been repeatedly debunked—than John Solomon.
