text: RTH: when you say that “they admit that not one vote was changed by the Russians,” you are repeating a popular but totally false Republican talking point.
  
  The January 6, 2017 consensus report by U.S. Intelligence agencies, titled “Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections: The Analytic Process and Cyber Incident Attribution” very specifically states that the agencies DID NOT investigate whether votes were changed. The agencies, which you refer to as “they,” did not “admit” anything about the changing of votes. Here’s exactly what the report said:
  
  “We did not make an assessment of the impact that Russian activities had on the outcome of the 2016 election. The US Intelligence Community is charged with monitoring and assessing the intentions, capabilities, and actions of foreign actors; it does not analyze US political processes or US public opinion.”
