OTHERS Donald Trump Promises New Revelations On Russian HackingOTHERSby Seun 5 hours ago0Click Here Trump who expressed lingering skepticism about intelligence assessments of Russian interference in the election.


U.S. President-elect Donald Trump says that he knew things that other people dont know about the Russian hacking.He promised that the information would be revealed on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Speaking outside his Palm Beach, Florida club, Mar-a-Lago during the New Year party, Trump who expressed lingering skepticism about intelligence assessments of Russian interference in the election, cast his declarations of doubt as an effort to seek the truth.

I just want them to be sure because its a pretty serious charge, Trump said of the intelligence agencies, according to reports.

If you look at the weapons of mass destruction, that was a disaster, and they were wrong, he added, referring to intelligence cited by the George W. Bush administration to support its march to war in 2003.

So I want them to be sure, the president-elect said. I think its unfair if they dont know.He added: And I know a lot about hacking. And hacking is a very hard thing to prove. So it could be somebody else. And I also know things that other people dont know, and so they cannot be sure of the situation.

When asked what he knew that others did not, Trump demurred, saying only: Youll find out on Tuesday or Wednesday.

The incoming president, who does not use email, also advised people to avoid computers when dealing with delicate material.

Its very important, if you have something really important, write it out and have it delivered by courier, the old-fashioned way, because Ill tell you what, no computer is safe, Trump warned.I dont care what they say, no computer is safe, he added. I have a boy whos 10 years old; he can do anything with a computer. You want something to really go without detection, write it out and have it sent by courier.The comments were a departure from a statement that Trump issued through transition officials last week, in which he said that it was time for people to move on from the hacking issue but that he would be briefed on the matter by intelligence officials early in the new year.

On Thursday, President Barack Obama ordered a set of retaliatory measures against Russia over the election hacking, including expelling 35 Russian diplomats and shuttered two estates that it claimed had been used for intelligence-gathering.

The Russian President, Vladimir Putin, declined to respond in kind to the measures, a gesture that Trump appeared to view favourably.

The president-elect praised Putins action on Twitter and criticised media coverage that had been harsh about Russia.

Trump, who has sought a warmer relationship with Putin, has repeatedly scoffed at the notion that Russia was behind the hacking, a stance at odds with members of his own party.

At one point, the incoming president declared that the hacking may have been the work of someone sitting on their bed weighing 400 pounds.
