US Warns Russia: Don't Mess With Our Election

The U.S. government has warned Russia not to interfere with the presidential election today or face "serious consequences," a senior U.S. official told ABC News.

The private warning followed an unusual public condemnation from America's top intelligence official, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who said the Kremlin's "senior-most officials" must have authorized cyberattacks on American individuals and political institutions, including the hack of the Democratic National Committee this summer.

"The recent disclosures of alleged hacked emails... are consistent with the methods and motivations of Russian-directed efforts," the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a joint statement with the Department of Homeland Security on Oct. 7. "These thefts and disclosures are intended to interfere with the U.S. election process."

Mexico is interfering with EVERYTHING in our election including having millions of their citizens vote in it.

Brian Ross is a leading member of American Pravda. Remember his hurried announcement that Gabby Gifford's shooter was a member of the Tea Party?

He's just a paid presstitute, carrying water for Team Tyranny.

This would be laughable if many people weren’t fooled by it. I am far more worried about my own government meddling in this election than Russia.

“...said the Kremlin’s “senior-most officials” must have authorized cyberattacks...”

“MUST HAVE”, he said.

My opinion on WHY it isn’t Russia. Assange would be guilty of treason if he’s getting is information from Russia. I don’t think he would do that.

Like Chrissie Mathews, I get a tingle when Obama talks tough. /S

IMHO, the whole “The Russians are hacking our emails and fiddling with our election” meme smacks of desperation and is completely unconvincing.

*** “I’m not a big Putin fan, but this is just embarrassing”***

As a Veteran of the Cold War it is sad and uncomfortable to realize how many times I have agreed with Putin and disagreed with ZERO and our State Department.

Obama, Hillary and Horseface... all 3 are a National Disgrace, individually unforgivable failures combined they add up to a disaster.

Couldn't agree more. I take Putin to task too, so I'm nto a big fan of his. Still, this is just infantile.

Clapper. That’s a name that exudes power and strength. Yeesh. He exudes weakness and liberalism, or was I redundant.

The juvenile things this president has done are legion.

I'm not a big Putin fan, but this is just embarrassing.

Yep, it is. I wonder what Obama's sycophants would say, if they thought the Rooskies were interfering on Hildebeast's behalf?

They wouldn't say a thing. This is all hype anyway. They're supporting the mem that Russia is helping Trump, trying to game the voters.
