OANN News this morning said NSA WHISTLEBLOWER has already shown DNC not hacked, but insider leak! Someone needs to tell rest of them! lol

The presumption, of course, is that Russia targeted our 2016 elections. I’m not sure they did. I think the Deep State was the principal bad actor in 2016, not Putin.

The correct word is “disrupt”, not “sway”. Fake news and the DNC keep beating this dead horse because they have NO alternative.

With the fear of being called a nasty, hating racist.... may I say:

I trust mostly any female who looked like this as a little girl.

If she's wrong about the 2018 meddling, maybe Obama could hip her up to all he did about past "election meddling".

Yoi!

________

"Forensic studies of “Russian hacking” into Democratic National Committee computers last year reveal that on July 5, 2016, data was leaked (not hacked) by a person with physical access to DNC computers, and then doctored to incriminate Russia."

"After examining metadata from the “Guccifer 2.0” July 5, 2016 intrusion into the DNC server, independent cyber investigators have concluded that an insider copied DNC data onto an external storage device, and that “telltale signs” implicating Russia were then inserted."

Will DHS insure an honest 2018 election and block leftists/Soros from stealing the midterms?

I have yet to see any credible evidence presented that would establish that Russia undertook a targeted effort to affect our elections in 2016. The only credible claim is that Russia conducted hacking—and that is nothing new; the Russians, as well as many other foreign entities, attempt to hack into American information systems all the time.

OTOH, there is plenty of evidence that Mexico did target our elections in 2016 and continues to do so, with aid and abetting from various US officials. How many of Hillary’s popular votes were actually cast by illegally registered illegal aliens? Didn’t Massachusetts just enact “automatic” voter registration to ensure that there is no vetting of whether voters who are registered are legal to vote?

Perhaps instead of chasing Russian squirrels, we should be pursuing the very real vote fraud.

Targeting the midterms is not cost effective

The results do not justify the effort and expense

I’m sure they know the democrats know they’re going to lose badly and will be claiming the election results were manipulated by the Russians. The white house is getting out front. The GOP certainly won’t.

the NSA whistleblower was on OANN News about 15 min ago, and he stated the speed at which the info was transmitted could only be a thumb drive...it was inside job, from DNC employee or volunteer. He tested that theory with researchers overseas, it could only load that fast on a thumb drive! The Russians did not HACK the DNC... not possible per NSA expert!

Look up the story from Dec. 2016, that was scarcely covered by the Democrat media when Georgia discovered Obama’s Dept. of Homeland Security had hacked into its computers and got information on 7.5 million voters. Who was indicted for that breach? Shouldn’t Rosenweasel have remembered that when he proclaimed that “no Americans were involved” in election meddling? Rather than worry about the Russians, we should be much more worried about what the Democrats in our government did to compromise our election process. We need convictions.

But coming amid fresh allegations into Russia’s attempts to sway the 2016 election

By “fresh”, Time means “reheated”.

I hear you.

I know we all get tired of talking to each other about reality, and the fact that reality hasn't reached so many of the voting public.

Personally I am more than very tired of all this, and may just get off the internet at least for a few weeks in order to clear my head and try to get rid of the anger I have for the IGNORANT UNINFORMED CITIZENS.
