Our World: The Left’s never-ending war . By CAROLINE B. GLICK \ 12/12/2016

  With their policies rejected by voters, the purpose of the Left isn’t to govern. It is to render their societies ungovernable.
The push among the American Left to discredit the results of last month’s presidential election entered a new phase last Friday with the White House’s announcement that outgoing US President Barack Obama has ordered US intelligence agencies to review evidence of Russian hacking in last month’s elections on behalf of President-elect Donald Trump.

The investigation itself is unlikely to lead to any conclusive results. The FBI, which is responsible for carrying out this sort of investigation, saw no evidence that Russian hacking was aimed specifically at assisting Trump’s campaign against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Despite this, Obama has chosen to make the probe the top priority of US intelligence agencies.

He urged them to finish their investigation before he leaves office. And, according to his deputy press secretary Eric Schultz, he aims to publicize as many the findings as he can.

Friday afternoon, Schultz said, “We’re going to make public as much as we can. As you can imagine, something like this might include sensitive and even classified information. When that report is submitted, we’re going to take a look. We want to brief Congress and the relevant stakeholders, possibly state directors.”

Democratic Senator Ron Wyden responded positively to Schultz’s statement. “This is good news,” he said. “Declassifying and releasing information about the Russian government and the US election, and doing so quickly, must be a priority.”

But why disclose the findings of an inconclusive investigation? There is only one reason to do so: to delegitimize the election results and so make the Trump administration radioactive for Democrats.

Both candidates were on the left, and now both parties. I reject the notion that the left was rejected in the election, and they do control literally everything else in the country

I do agree with the last half of that statement , the first remains to be seen.

Oh, pooh.  Trump's not "on the left," in the same way Hillary Clinton and the Democrats are on the left.  Trump's leanings are leftward, but that's hardly the same thing.

The left was rejected in the election -- that's the only way Trump even got close, much less won.  He fooled enough of the people to do it, by playing to their anti-left inclinations.

And as for controlling "literally everything else...."  That's just ridiculous.  Demonstrably false, unless they're controlling your keyboard as well.
