Greenwald: ‘No Evidence’ Putin Directed Hacking; CIA Assertions ‘Not Enough’

GREENWALD: "I think Obama is absolutely correct. You shouldn’t reject what the CIA is claiming simply because it helps a Republican to do so, but the other side is also true which is that you’re not obligated through patriotism or decency to simply accept what the CIA says lest you be accused of siding with a foreign dictator or being unpatriotic. What should determine the discourse is the evidence presented on the key claims that Putin directed this hacking and that he did so to elect Donald Trump. There’s no evidence for it. Not unpersuasive evidence or inadequate evidence -- no evidence! Just CIA assertions over and over and that just simply is not enough."
