Investing.com - The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) never visited the Democratic National Committee (DNC) head office in Washington D.C. to examine the IT equipment purportedly "hacked" by Russian operatives, nor did government agents ever request that the computer servers be produced for an off-site examination, a spokesman for President-elect Trump, Sean Spicer, said.

According to Spicer, who is presently the Republican National Committee's spokesman, and is the incoming White House press secretary, the FBI never "validated" the claims by the Democratic Party's IT security company Crowd Strike that the DNC's servers were indeed breached by unauthorized parties.

What is more, FBI agents in charge of the investigation "never requested the hacked servers," said Spicer. "No one went to the crime scene to investigate it. This is very troubling and worth noting."

Spicer added that the Obama White House on Friday "dodged questions" from reporters about the intelligence community report.

Spicer also said that the President-elect was concerned that the classified report was leaked to reporters at NBC News, and other opposition news outlets, before he was briefed by the Democratic political appointees who lead the intelligence community.

"It is deeply concerning that the media has spread unverifiable information from anonymous sources before there was even a finalized report ready for the President of the United States," said Spicer. "The way this story has unfolded in the media has raised red flags for even liberal onlookers like Rolling Stone, which recently published a story titled 'Something About This Russia Story Stinks.'”

There are worries that the Obama White House is recklessly playing politics with the report of the alleged hacking incidents, said Spicer.

One IT professional who examined Friday's report from the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) told Investing.com that some of the links purported to be linked to Russian intel operatives have been previously identified as being associated with the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) by online experts. Other alleged "hacking" mentioned in the report was also said to have occurred against European political organizations.

Trump's team believes the intel report from Friday ends the months-long controversy, started by Hillary Clinton, who blames Russia for her defeat in the U.S. presidential election.

"The safety of the American people and security of the American homeland are the President-elect’s top priorities, and he looks forward to turning the page on the failed foreign policy of the past eight years," said Spicer.
