I wish everyone, liberal or conservative, Democrat or Republican, could have seen the "monologue" at the beginning of Hannity's program tonight. He showed part of the comments made by the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to the Senate Committee investigating Russian hacking. He said that Russia poses "an existential threat to the United States". He said he didn't think we have ever encountered a more aggressive or direct campaign to interfere in our election process, but he also said their hacking efforts "did not change the vote tallies" in the election. He said when it comes to the question of whether Russian hacking affected "the choices that the electorate made, there's no way for us to gauge that". Hannity also pointed out numerous hackings have occurred in our government agencies since 2009 and very little action has been taken to combat these attacks. Hacking of the Office of Personnel Management was hacked in 2015 and 21.5 million people were affected. Another incident happened when a single employee responded to a pfishing email that made the entire IRS system vulnerable. A cursory review on hacking that has occurred recently, (specicically the targets involved), are enough to send "chills" up your spine. Unless you want to deal with complete "shock", don't go there.
