"We should carefully consider whether our election system, our election process, is critical infrastructure like the financial sector, like the power grid," Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said.
"There's a vital national interest in our election process, so I do think we need to consider whether it should be considered by my department and others critical infrastructure," he said at media conference earlier this month hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.
DHS has a vital security role in 16 areas of critical infrastructure and they provide a model for what the department and Johnson could have in mind for the election.
DHS describes it this way on their website: "There are 16 critical infrastructure sectors whose assets, systems, and networks, whether physical or virtual, are considered so vital to the United States that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination thereof."
A White House policy directive adds, "The federal government also has a responsibility to strengthen the security and resilience of its own critical infrastructure, for the continuity of national essential functions, and to organize itself to partner effectively with and add value to the security and resilience efforts of critical infrastructure owners and operators."

But that doesn’t give her the right to steal the election. OZero is a usurper, but at least he can claim to have gotten the most votes in 2008 (as I said above, 2012 was another story).
My point is that so-called “conservatives” and “patriots” will not do anything about it. If they have no problem with a usurper in office for 8 long years, a stolen election will be a cake walk for the neo-fascists. Just go back to watching your regularly scheduled NFL-BLM-cuck football game and do as you are told.
Still, I wouldn’t mind having a try . . .
You know, we need to get sharp about packet radio RTF now .. .

This is not Russians.
I am getting a .......I am not asking the correct questions to get the proper response as I am not locked into the flow. What is coming through though is this is one of the Suboperational Groups which George HW Bush set up back in the day. Meaning, the hackers are a CIA shadow Sub Op. They are running out of Alexandria Virginia and are piggybacking from a location in western Russia to leave an incriminating trail to the Kremlin.
Inquiry states what this is all about is the reality that Donald Trump is running landslide victory numbers and ........I do not detail this part concerning Mr. Trump, but suffice it to say that Mr. Trump is associated with individuals which have neutralized Hillary Clinton's ability to steal the election........and that is why Homoland has been enacted illegally into the elections, in order to steal this election on the MK ULTRA conditioning you have been hearing in these fraud polls. I am telling you that just like Obama's stealing it from Mitt Romney, you are being conditioned that Hamrod will win this with a pregnant 1%. What I am telling you is that the votes have already been counted. That is why Homoland has been set as overseer of this, as it will clamp a national security cloak on this and no one will be able to review the results, because the majority of the hackers are working for the regime.
What is being tagged on this in Russia is some peacenik group or something which is the front for this transfer point.
Do not bite on the both candidates going tits up. That is a Mockingbird bluff. "They" appreciated the work posted here of NYC824 and are reinforcing it to scare Mr. Trump and the Hamrod.
This will not make a great deal of sense to most of you, but inquiry states that the signatures of hackers are not the algorithms, but the system conducting the hack always "pings" from the electronic grid which it originates from. Different continents and nation's power generation grids have a signature. The E print on this is American, no matter what the Mockingbird is implanting in your grey matter.
The underlying story in this process is there are those who have neutralized the methods which Obama Clinton steal elections, and that is why Homoland is being activated.
The fail safe is blaming the Russians for another internal American election theft.

More liberal fascism.
I am amazed that Jonah Goldberg’s book, “Liberal Fascism”
was so accurate in predicting the present devolution of freedom in America.
We must rid ourselves of this scourge on the People.
Jay Johnston can go eff himself royally.He simply supports
the jack booted thug regulation based on the false premise that minorities do not have access to the vote?
A few staged race riots and then we have martial law and a postponed election? Screw Jay Johnston and the horse he rode in on.
The more the polls predict a Trump win, watch for the liberal fascist, jack booted thugs to “regulate” elections in their own favor, like they do now in places like Philadelphia, where dead people often vote twice.
The underlying story in this process is there are those who have neutralized the methods which 0bama / klinton steal elections, and that is why Homoland - S - ec - ur - it- y is being activated.
They are blaming the Russians for another internal American election theft.
Thanks, Rodguy.
“I am amazed that Jonah Goldberg’s book, “Liberal Fascism”

Yeah, too bad he took the money, and sold Americ out. I guess he fears the old days coming back where he sold Dove bars on NYC street corners : )
Well I agree that Goldberg is something of a piker these days.This season of politics seems to have put the regulars off a bit.
He must have had a lucid moment when he wrote “Liberal Fascism.”
It is a well researched book, plenty of footnotes.
Should be prescribed reading for High School civics classes ( which no longer exist, I am told.)
BUMP!

“Were they denied requests for help during the attack?” he asked... .
[snip]
“Well, we are finding out exactly what happened,” the president again said. “I can tell you, as I’ve said over the last couple of months since this happened, the minute I found out what was happening, I gave three very clear directives. Number one, make sure that we are securing our personnel and doing whatever we need to. Number two, we’re going to investigate exactly what happened so that it doesn’t happen again. Number three, find out who did this so we can bring them to justice. And I guarantee you that everyone in the state department, our military, the CIA, you name it, had number one priority making sure that people were safe. These were our folks and we’re going to find out exactly what happened, but what we’re also going to do it make sure that we are identifying those who carried out these terrible attacks.”> First of all this is the first time I have heard Zippo saying this and it's been 45 days since the attack. Second, everything he says after the first directive is in past tense.
He is cornered and has no teleprompter. I believe he was AWOL after the 6PM email that stated that the attack had stopped and the consulate cleared.
I say this for two reasons. At 10:00PM Hillary released a press statement that reads;
I condemn in the strongest terms the attack on our mission in Benghazi today. As we work to secure our personnel and facilities, we have confirmed that one of our State Department officers was killed. We are heartbroken by this terrible loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and those who have suffered in this attack.In her statement she mentions speaking with President Magariaf no doubt asking him for military support because POTUS was AWOL and she could not order Military action. It is being reported today on Fox that the request for help at the annex was denied because the station chief was waiting for Lybian help that of course never came.This evening, I called Libyan President Magariaf to coordinate additional support to protect Americans in Libya. President Magariaf expressed his condemnation and condolences and pledged his government’s full cooperation.
Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind.
In light of the events of today, the United States government is working with partner countries around the world to protect our personnel, our missions, and American citizens worldwide.
Indeed, one of the videos shot with a cell phone of one of the attackers emerged around the time four Americans were killed. It shows a mob approaching the American compound under siege, clearly telling the terrorists in the dialect of Upper Egypt: "Mahadesh, mahadesh yermi, Dr. Morsi ba'atna" — which translates to: "Don't shoot, don't shoot, Dr. Morsi sent us."This was clearly planned by the Obama campaign with decreases in security and denials of security leading up to the September 11 "hostage" taking operation.
Catching up Benghazi Ping.
. # 271 is important.
Thanks, Greg.
U.S. officials in Washington monitored the Sept. 11 attack on the American mission in Benghazi as it was happening. But don’t blame American policymakers for initially blaming the unrest in Benghazi on protesters.
Those are those are just two of the many contradictory messages coming from State Department employees as they testify before the House Oversight Committee, which held hearings Wednesday on the attack. But they’re not only only mismatches.
Depending on which witness you believe, security at the Benghazi mission was either just fine — “the correct number of assets,” one State Department official said — or woefully inadequate.
“There was no plan, there was just hope that everything would get better,” one security official testified.
Charlene Lamb, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for International Programs, said in her prepared testimony (.pdf) that she had a firm grasp on what happened in Benghazi, starting mere moments after the mission came under assault.
“When the attack began, a Diplomatic Security agent working in the tactical operations center immediately… alerted the annex U.S. quick reaction security team stationed nearby … and the Diplomatic Security Command Center in Washington.
From that point on, I could follow what was happening in almost real-time,” Lamb explained.
Yet confusion remained about the attack’s origin.
Five days after the strike, American ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice said the unrest in Benghazi began with a protest against an anti-Islam video.
State Department officials were finally forced to concede on Wednesday there was no protest.
Under Secretary of State for Management Patrick Kennedy insisted in testimony on Wednesday that there was no cover-up of the attack’s true cause.
“We have always made clear that we are giving the best information we have at the time. And that information has evolved,” Kennedy said in his prepared statement (.pdf).
“For example, if any administration official, including any career official, were on television on Sunday, September 16th, they would have said what Ambassador Rice said.
The information she had at that point from the intelligence community is the same that I had at that point.
As time went on, additional information became available. Clearly, we know more today than we did on the Sunday after the attack.”
One thing that was known months and months ago: Benghazi was a seriously hostile place for American diplomats.
Gaddafi loyalists plotted to attack U.S. embassies in Benghazi and Tripoli as early as December 2011, according to a summary of security incidents (.pdf) in Libya
compiled by the State Department and given to congressional investigators.
The plot, called “Papa Noel” — French for “Santa Claus” — was busted up by Libyan security forces before it was ever put into action, But the plot was also planned to go into action a mere two months after the death of dictator Muammar Gaddafi, a sign — and an omen —
that militants intended to attack U.S. diplomatic stations much earlier than previously thought.
“According to [government of Libya] security official Abdessalam Borghathi, a network of Gaddafi loyalists were behind the plot
and the GoL arrested the members and dismantled the group,”
the summary stated in a brief entry dated Dec. 20.
The Libyan government reported seizing “150 RPG launchers, and various light weapons and ammunition and undisclosed sums of money.”
The militants also used SMS messages to communicate, “confirming their intent in carrying out this operation as an explosive ‘Christmas gift’ to the Libyan people.”
The alleged plot was only one of 230 “specific security incidents” detailed in the report, but also one of the most sophisticated until the Sept. 11 complex attack that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and four other Americans.
In April and again in June, militants attacked the consulate on with improvised explosives.
In another warning to American personnel stationed in the city — this time in May — RPG rounds were fired at the nearby Benghazi office of the International Committee of the Red Cross.
Two security officers were wounded in an RPG attack on the British ambassador’s convoy in June.
This is being run by the same assholes who control the IRS and EPA?
Yup. We’re screwed. Didn’t even get a kiss.

Everything else the son of a bitch does is unconstitutional. Why should this one be different?
I am confident that TX will welcome jehthro and buckwheat to take over our elections....
