So far I am reading this out of their report:
1) Putin DARED to use propaganda to smear an already unelectable candidate. (Seriously, this cycle had the historically least desirable candidates out of the gate. Sec Clinton brought enough baggage to bury her just by running.)
2) we assess (but totally fail to substantiate) that the DNC leak to wikileaks was via a Russian hacking group (which we don't name) despite the spear phishing of Podesta and pals being laughable, and worthy of ridicule itself, because totally nobody but Putin would be ribald enough to try to get dirt on how the DNC was making its internal decisions, despite the then recent political turmoil of sanders' defeat in the primaries. No, a citizen of the US, or a disgruntled staffer, as Wikileaks themselves attest, just is not as likely as a secret, concerted effort by Moscow to steal Clinton's win from her, Occam's razor be damned. Malware of Russian origin was used! It MUST be Russia, since Putin benefited from it!
3) guccifer2.0 was totally a Russian and not Romanian! We have proof (that we won't reveal)!!
4) Russia was totally interested in how our elections work since 2014, long before trump declared candidacy! They were actively accessing state systems involved in that process to better understand how our elections work (evidence of which we did not act on 2 years ago if it even really exists, which you should simply trust us on like a good citizen. Pay no attention to the harsh reality that big nations like our own and Russia do these things routinely to gain the freshest possible Intel. Its only good when WE do it!) so that they could totally influence our elections!
5) the rise in popularity of RT as a US news source (clearly not due to widespread distrust of domestic news networks for failing to cover important international events, surely! Not because the domestic news is obvious propaganda either, no sir!) allowed Russia unprecedented access to the us public, a trend that shows no signs of reversal, and Moscow used this access to ... SPREAD PROPAGANDA.. How horrible! (Never mind the very obvious and much better substantiated link between the msm and 3 letter agency propaganda pieces, re snowden and pals. Again, only good when WE do it!)
6) some examples of RT's propaganda (shame on you Putin, for manipulating people with propaganda the exact same ways we do! Naughty! Don't you know our citizens are so mush brained that they can't detect obvious agendas... Even though they saw right through our own campaigns, which is why they were watching your news in the first place!?)
7) just look at how skewed the US's preferred social network (facebook) chatter is toward our domestic propaganda mouthpieces compared to less curated and more multinational audiences of YouTube and pals! This CLEARLY supports our argument!
they even used smug language!
Conclusions:
Trust us, Russia totally did it and needs to be punished! Our own repeated failures toward the us public had nothing to do with it whatsoever!
