SOUNDBITE:  (English) Sen. John McCain, (R) Arizona:\"Quote, based on the scope and sensitivity of these efforts, that only Russia's senior most officials could have authorized these activities?  General Clapper do you, those are still operable and correct statements? 2. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Clapper - Director of National Intelligence:\"Yes, Chairman McCain, they are.  As I indicated in my statement, we stand actually more resolutely on the strength of that statement than we made on the 7th of October.\" 3.SOUNDBITE: (English) Sen. John McCain, (R) Arizona:\"I thank you.  And so really what we're talking about is, if they succeeded in changing the results of an election, which none of us believe that they were, that would have to constitute an attack on the United States of America because of the effects, if they had succeeded?\"4. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Clapper - Directorof National Intelligence:\"I cannot say, they did not change the vote tallies or anything of that sort.  We had no way of gauging the impact that, certainly the intelligence community can't gauge the impact that it had on choices the electorate made.  There's no way for us to gauge that.  Whether or not that constitutes an act of war I believe is a very heavy policy call that I don't believe the intelligence community should make, but it's certainly would carry in my view, great gravity.\" 5. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence:\"This was a multi-faceted campaign.  So, the hacking was one part of it and it also entailed classical propaganda, dis-information, fake news.\"6. SOUNDBITE: (English) Sen. Jack Reed, (D) Rhode Island:\"Does that continue?\"7. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence:\"Yes.\"8. SOUNDBITE: (English) Sen. Claire McCaskill, (D) Missouri:\"So let's talk about who benefits from a President-elect trashing an intelligence community?  Who benefits from that, Director Clapper, the American people losing confidence in the intelligence community and the work of the intelligence community. Who actually is the benefactor of someone who is about to become Commander in Chief trashing the intelligence community?\"9. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Clapper, Director National Intelligence:\"I think there is an important distinction here between healthy skepticism, which policy makers, to include policy maker number one, should always have for intelligence, but I think there is a difference between skepticisms and disparagement.\"10. SOUNDBITE: (English) Sen. Lindsey Graham, (R) South Carolina:\"So, ladies and gentlemen, it is time now not to throw pebbles, but to throw rocks. I wish we were not here.  If it were up to me, we'd all live in peace. But Putin's up to no good and he's got to be stopped.  And, Mr. President-elect, when you listen to these people, you can be skeptical, but understand, they're the best among us and they're trying to protect us.  Thank you all.  STORYLINE:The nation's top intelligence official said Thursday Russia undoubtedly interfered in America's 2016 presidential election but stopped short of the explosive description of \"an act of war,\" telling lawmakers such a call isn't within the purview of the U.S. intelligence community.In today's testimony, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper confirmed the findings of the October statement and that disinformation and fake news, along with hacking continues today.In its assessment, the intelligence community has said Moscow interfered in the election to help Republican Donald Trump win.Clapper and other U.S. intelligence said President Barack Obama has received a report on the Russian interference and other foreign meddling in the U.S. election. They said Russia poses a major and growing threat to U.S. government, military, diplomatic and commercial operations.Clapper said lawmakers will be briefed on the Russian hacking report next week and an unclassified version is tentatively scheduled to be released shortly after that.The hearing comes a day before the president-elect receives a briefing by the CIA and FBI directors - along with the head of national intelligence - on the investigation into Russia's alleged hacking efforts.Trump has criticized their findings and even seemed to back WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's contention that Russia did not provide him with hacked Democratic emails.Appearing before the committee were Clapper; Marcel Lettre, the undersecretary of defense for intelligence; and Adm. Michael Rogers, National Security Agency chief and the top officer at the U.S. Cyber Command.President Barack Obama struck back at Moscow in late December with penalties aimed at Russia's leading spy agencies, the GRU and FSB, that the U.S. said were involved. The GRU is Russia's military intelligence agency. The FSB is the main successor to the Soviet-era KGB.But Trump easily could rescind the sanctions.4.
