I hope they don't go too far. We'll throw a welcome back party for them after Jan 20

WOW, that is painfully stupid. The US gets hacked often. This supposed hack is a canard. not only do you have the DNI saying that Russia didn't do it, but even if they did, the result of the hack (or more likely leak) is that it exposed criminal and sleaze within our own government. This is different that China hacking the pentagon and stealing stealth tech. I wonder if he is trying to provoke a war before he gets our of office?

You mean another war?

Nah, I think Obama is just trying to stay relevant. "Look at me, I'm still the President!" Russians aren't stupid, they know they have 3 more weeks to go before they never have to talk to Obama ever again. And they know Trump is an entirely different animal than Obama. Unless Obama orders military action against Russia, there's nothing he can say or do that will have a lasting impact on relations between the U.S. and Russia. And I don't think even Obama is that stupid.

yeah, those 35 can probably come back in January. It will be some time off for them and a chance to spend new years with family and not much more. Trump will undo the problem that obama is causing, like all of the other problems.
