The Department of Homeland Security said last week that it is very
likely Russian hackers targeted Hillary Clinton's Campaign Manager
John Podesta. Mr. Podesta is an almost fanatical party enforcer for
the Democrats, he has long been a confidant of Secretary Clinton.

Talking Points believe that if the Intel is correct and Russian
hackers working for Putin did indeed intrude on the American
election, President Obama must take action. First, he must speak
directly to the American people about the evidence and second he
must apply sanctions against the Putin government. These cyber-
attacks are just that. Attacks. So let's get on it, Mr. President.
Now, for the fallout. By hacking into Podesta's e-mail, we know
beyond any doubt that the American press is corrupt. At least to
some extent.

For example, "New York Times" political reporter Mark Leibovich
appears to have given Hillary Clinton's spokeswoman Jennifer
Palmieri editorial control over a major news story in "The Times."
Reporter asked Miss Palmieri if he could use certain quotes that
Hillary Clinton gave him in a private off the record meeting. That's
against journalistic procedure. You don't write a political article
okayed by a campaign. Another example, working for CNN at the time,
now Democratic Chairwoman Donna Brazile apparently fed the Clinton
campaign a question that CNN was going to ask doing a town hall
meeting featuring Mrs. Clinton.

Again, that's corruption and that should never happen. Sample three,
John Harwood, he is a Washington correspondent for CNBC and you
remember him as a former debate moderator in the Republican primary.
According to hacked e-mails, he was e-mailing Podesta suggesting
things Hillary Clinton could do to become more successful. That's
outrageous. Example four, "The New York Times" reporter Maggie
Haberman, then working at Politico was described by the Clinton
campaign in an email as quote, "a friendly journalist who teed up
stories that never disappointed them.

To be fair, that's hearsay. Miss Haberman did not do what Mr.
Leibovich did directly interacting with the Clinton campaign as far
as we know. So, the email might be unfair to her and both is
troubling. Also, another hearsay situation, report today out of TMZ
says that NBC had that "Access Hollywood" tape for months and
purposely released it to damage Trump before the debate. Anonymous
sources, so impossible to verify.


Finally, the talk show host Steve Harvey provided Hillary Clinton's
campaign with the exact questions he was going to ask Secretary
Clinton.

STEVE HARVEY, TALK SHOW HOST: She's been breaking ground in her
personal and professional life since she was a kid. So let's go back
to when you were just a kid.

HILLARY CLINTON (D), PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: Oh boy! Oh my goodness.

HARVEY: You wanted to be an astronaut.

CLINTON: I did.

O'REILLY: Mrs. Clinton knew exactly that that was coming. Including
the use of her picture as a child. Talking Points has long asserted
that the American press is essentially an arm of the left. This
proves it. There's no doubt. So, let's sum up. Any journalists
colluding with the political campaign should resign immediately,
before she resigned. Period. And that's "The Memo".
