Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late night series Real Time with Bill Mo.

Okay, we're on you to what should the intelligence community have told the people before the election?

Well, you should answer that, you were in it.

Well, I think that it would have been nice, of course, to have a little bit of information

earlier ahead of the election about what the Russians were doing.

I'll tell you that a lot of it was happening wide open. A lot of it was happening on RT America,

which is their propaganda channel in the United States.

So it was barely hidden, even the hacks were designed, I think, to be discovered right away.

So it would have been nice to have known a little bit earlier.

We knew in October where the intelligence organizations told us in October,

but some of our leaders knew ahead of time were suspected, and I think we could have known more.

The answer is very simple. They should have told us that both campaigns were under FBI investigation.

Not just one.

Right.

They're going on since July.

They're looking at it explicable.

Sorry, you're from the CIA.

What is taking so long for all of this Russia information to come out?

This dossier that's everyone's talking about, why is it taking so long?

Well, I think because they're trying to find real evidence.

Yeah, I would say that this is a very complicated thing to map out,

because there's so much to discover, which is bad news for the president.
