U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that Russian Federation interfered in the 2016 presidential election to try to help U.S. President Donald Trump win, in part by hacking and releasing emails embarrassing to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and spreading social media propaganda.
CIA Director Mike Pompeo (pahm-PAY'-oh) says he's concerned about continued efforts by Russian Federation and others to undermine American elections, including this year's contests, but says such meddling isn't new.
"The CIA does psychological profiles of world leaders", Wallace observed.
On Saturday, Trump, in a public defence of his histrionics, went on a Twitter spree, branding himself as a "very stable genius". "What would you say about a world leader who refers to himself as a very stable genius?" Let's just say that Pompeo wasn't too thrilled with the question. "This is a man who is leading the United States of America and who engages with the intelligence community in ways that are sophisticated".

The CIA director was responding to questions on the recent decision of the Trump administration to suspend approximately Dollars 2 billion in security aid to Pakistan.
Pompeo added that Trump is the leader of the country and deals with "the most complex issues" and has handled them in a way that he has "great admiration and respect for".
US President Donald Trump has asked Pakistan to "cease" being a safe haven for terrorists that threaten the US, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director said yesterday.
"No", Pompeo replied without offering an explanation.
