Dem Congresswoman on Russia: “I’m not convinced they didn’t get into [voting] machines”
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/14/2017 6:14:18 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Not even Hillary Clinton, acclaimed author of What Happened, went this far.  On Wednesday's Hardball, Dem Rep. Jackie Speier called Russian "hacking" of the presidential election an "act of war." Taking things a significant step further, Speier said:

"I'm not convinced that they didn't get into the [voting] machines."

That was too much even for Chris Matthews, who interjected, "we don't know that yet. We don't know that."

You want them to prove a negative? What would be the evidence that would convince you? Other than the fact that the voting machines aren’t connected to the Internet.

If Chris Mathews is skeptical, there must be no evidence. Dems showing their ignorance on TV, constantly. Most people are onto the Kabuki theater. Look here at Russia! Don’t look at the Awan family!

My theory: Chris Matthews wants to shut her up because he wants to prevent an investigation into the integrity of the voting machines. Why? Because many WERE compromised. BY THE DEMOCRATS. That’s why they don’t want an investigation.

You know....I think the Russians secretly registered thousands of illegal aliens, and dead people all across America to vote for Trump. What we need to do is start a National ID card episode and clear off the voting polls to ensure the evil bad Russians don’t continue to defraud the voting system.

...President Obama dismissed as “ridiculous” Donald Trump’s assertion that the election might be rigged, calling it a conspiracy theory that “doesn’t make any sense.”

Obama, in fact, seemed almost at a loss for words when a reporter asked him about Trump’s recent claims. “What does that even mean?” he asked.

He noted that presidential elections are not run on a federal basis, but instead state-by-state...

What evidence, however circumstantial, even vaguely hints at “[Russians] did get into [voting] machines”? I have yet to hear _any_ Leftist give the _slightest_ reason to think _any_ votes were improperly marked for the Right, other than their cognitive dissonance over Trump actually winning.

Democrats intentionally used disinformation from Russia to attack Trump, campaign aides

By Rowan Scarborough
The Washington Times
July 11, 2017

While the mainstream news media hunts for evidence of Trump-Russia collusion, the public record shows that Democrats have willfully used Moscow disinformation to influence the presidential election against Donald Trump and attack his administration.

The disinformation came in the form of a Russian-fed dossier written by former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele. It contains a series of unverified criminal charges against Mr. Trump’s campaign aides, such as coordinating Moscow’s hacking of Democratic Party computers.

Some Democrats have widely circulated the discredited information. Mr. Steele was paid by the Democrat-funded opposition research firm Fusion GPS with money from a Hillary Clinton backer. Fusion GPS distributed the dossier among Democrats and journalists. The information fell into the hands of the FBI, which used it in part to investigate Mr. Trump’s campaign aides.

Mr. Steele makes clear that his unproven charges came almost exclusively from sources linked to the Kremlin and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He identified his sources as “a senior Russian Foreign Ministry figure,” a former “top level Russian intelligence officer active inside the Kremlin,” a “senior Kremlin official” and a “senior Russian government official.”

The same Democrats who have condemned Russia’s election interference via plying fake news and hacking email servers have quoted freely from the Steele anti-Trump memos derived from creatures of the Kremlin.

In other words, there is public evidence of significant, indirect collusion between Democrats and Russian disinformation..."

Ned Ryun: Democrat-Aligned ‘Disinformation Firm’ Fusion GPS Took Money from Senior Russian Officials

breitbart ^ | JOHN HAYWARD

American Majority Founder and Chief Executive Officer Ned Ryun followed the latest twists and turns in the story of Fusion GPS on Friday’s Breitbart News Daily with SiriusXM host Raheem Kassam. Ryun said Thursday was a day of “massive” developments in the case, which is moving in a direction very different from what Democrats obsessed with alleged collusion between Russia and the Trump 2016 campaign expected. He spotlighted Hermitage Capital CEO Bill Browder, who has been “very involved” with the Magnitsky Act sanctions.

“Fusion GPS was used against him and was used to lobby against the Act,” said Ryun. “The reason that Senate Judiciary wanted him to come in front of them and testify was to talk about some of Fusion GPS’s behavior.”

“There was some pretty staggering stuff that came out yesterday, Raheem. One was, Lindsey Graham asked him under oath, ‘Do you think that there were Russians involved in funding Fusion’s work?’ His response under oath was, in the spring and summer of 2016, they were receiving money indirectly from senior Russian government officials,” Ryun reported.

Kassam restated that Fusion GPS, a “Democrat-aligned group,” has now “admitted to receiving money from the Russians.”

What about the voting machines manufactured in England by a Soros-owned company? They were used in sixteen states and flipped Trump votes to Clinton when voters voted a straight Republican ticket.

Many complaints were voiced during early voting about this problem, especially in Texas.

And wasn’t this Speier loon shot in Guyana along with a congressman by the People’s Temple crazies decades ago?
