Every single left-wing media outlet has been focused on it while Dem-friendly surrogates, donors, and PACs have been searching for it. Democrat politicians, many with access to highly classified material, have made the accusations but still, to this day, there is simply no proof it ever happened.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn\u2019t stop them from getting in front of a camera and yakking about it, though.\u00a0 \u201cRussian hackers\u201d somehow \u201cinterfered\u201d with Hillary\u2019s rightful ascension, and that cannot be tolerated.<\/p>\n<p>Enter Dianne Feinstein.\u00a0 Last week, she was on Wolf Blitzer\u2019s show.\u00a0 There, she was asked directly if she had any proof to support the left-wing conspiracy theories.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;She does not.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dAxaalddaqI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/center><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Again, it doesn\u2019t sound like they have anything<\/h3>\n<p>Well, that was blunt.
