    Obama is being asked about revelations that top intelligence officials last week told Trump about an unsubstantiated report that Russia had compromising personal and financial information about him. Obama tells NBC News he doesn’t comment on classified information.

    But Obama says he ordered the recent report into Russian hacking because he wanted everyone to understand what happened so steps will be taken to ensure it doesn’t happen again.

    He says his hope and expectation is that work will continue after he leaves office. He says Congress and the Trump administration should “take it seriously” and reinforce mechanisms that can protect U.S. democracy

    Our President will be missed. He was one great leader.

    Obama and the (lack of) intelligence services have NO proof that Russia did anything. Yet Obama is screwing up relations with Russia for Trump.

    Obama is a rotten president and whose legacy will be seen as a person who not only gave Iran the chance for nuclear weapons, but who allowed terror to become a major factor in the world, and who helped bring down American family values, who did nothing to help his own black people stop rioting and start learning and to work hard for success.

    The Obama legacy? America’s lousiest president!
