"the new york times" reports that the american intelligence officials say i they were only interested in retrieving the nic cyber weapons but the russian was eagerly pushing anti-trump information, which included 152nd a video of an american businessman and a room talking to two women. according to the "times," there was no way to verify who's in that video and the spies thought that was incredible. the report says the officials eventually agreed to pay the shadowy russian $100,000. instead of turning over and i say hacking tools, he gave them "unverifiede, and possibly fabricated information involving mr. trump and others including bank records, emails, and reported russian intelligence data." the hundred grand was supposed to be the first installment of $1 million they were going to pay out, which was down from 10 billion that t
