Good news for Hillary Clinton; Josh Lederman and Bradly Klapper, Associated Press Dec. 16: The FBI is supporting the CIA's conclusion that Russia interfered in the presidential election. The explosive accusations suggest Putin, the leaders of perhaps America's greatest geopolitical foe, directly undermined U.S. democracy. Bad news; U.S. officials have not contended, however, that Trump would have been defeated by Clinton on Nov. 8 if not for Russia's assistance. Nor has there been any indication of tampering with the vote counting.
