The Welcome to Media Roots Radio, This is your host, Abby Martin.

0:42.1

So I'm just going to give a quick intro to the podcast my brother and I did about this new intelligence report,

0:47.6

supposedly proving Russian interference in our elections, right?

0:51.2

So this long-awaited report to kind of bolster the intelligence

0:56.2

communities claim that Russia hacked the elections. Half of the report is basically just bashing

1:01.9

R-T. And not only that, but it's an annex from a 2012 thing. That was an internal document

it had no actual evidence. But today, I just saw another article. And it is called, let me actually

2:09.6
