Deep state still at it. Wray needs to be fired.

[mass55th]

"The U.S. government has concluded that Iran was behind a series of threatening emails arriving this week in the inboxes of Democratic voters"

Who told Iran who the Democrat voters were? Who/where did they get that info from? Has the FBI revealed that?

[Gene Eric]

“Give us another $150 billion cold cash, or else!!!”

[CommieCutter]

Good point.

[Ruger1099]

How can DHS jump on this so quickly but the FBI has Hunter Biden’s laptop for almost a year & all we here is crickets.

[catnipman]

“who all spoke on the condition of anonymity “

so out of the thousands of state and local “authorities” who were on this call, not a single one was willing to use their name as a “source”?

what that means of course is that WaPo simply fabricated the whole story ...

[LIConFem]

Has to be true. It came from Wray and the FBI, after all.

[Smellin Salt]

The FBI didn’t buy the dossier, they sold it to the FISA courts.

[a fool in paradise]

This is at least the third time this year that the MSM has published Iranian state propaganda as “news”.

The dead terrorist and the “impending war” was another time.

The summer of rage was another time (what’s the civil right of protest like in Iran and China, WashPoo?)

[Jane Long]

Well, they certainly were retweeted/reposted by Dem groups like Lincoln Project aholes and USA Today.

[a fool in paradise]

>>Bullsh%t. Those emails came from the Dems.

Valerie Jarrett, same difference.

[Its All Over Except ...]

I read thst Steele was paid to talk.

[realcleanguy]

So Iran is working for Biden.....

[Texan Tory]

“Ragan said he believed the purpose was to intimidate Democratic voters in a swing state with hotly contested races up and down the ballot on Nov. 3.”

Wrong. The purpose was to make Trump allies (the Proud Boys) look like they are engaging in voter intimidation, thereby making the right (and Trump) look bad, and swing the election in favor of Biden. No way do the Iranians want Trump to win.

[.30Carbine]

Yup. This is set up to change the topic of conversation, add to the confusion, and waste resources researching the source.

[Fightin Whitey]

If IRAN was involved than John Kerry is right at the top of command.

But stashed safely below the surface with the surf-boats, the $3,000 bicycles, the oversized helmets, a gaggle of translators and shadowy spies, and of course the next contingent of 72 virgin maidens hoping desperately that the cave caves in before Lurch is able to make his flaccid move: "Say, ladies, where does a man buy a huntin' license 'round here?"

[sockhead]

Iran...Russia...White Supremacists....oh, the interference and threat to national security! Pure BS

[pnz1]

So Iran (pretending to be a “far right” group) was sending threatening emails to Democrats? That could only help Biden.

[pierrem15]

Their investigation has progressed! Now it's Iran instead of Russia!/s

What bullcrap. Trump still has no control over the Deep State FBI.

[MAGAthon]

so we’ve immediately gone from Iran interfering in the election against Trump to Iran working with so-called Trump “white supremacists” or something?

what a set-up.

19 Oct: Front Page: China is Using Companies like Twitter to Interfere in the Election
Amazon (WaPo), Facebook, and Twitter’s businesses are tethered to the Communist regime.
by Daniel Greenfield
But Amazon’s business in China isn’t done. To a large degree, Amazon’s business is China. Behind the smiling logo, the massive array of businesses covering everything from running the CIA’s cloud to spending $500 million to make a Lord of the Rings streaming series, are a bunch of grim offices, apartments, and warehouses in Chinese cities that make up its real business.

Three years ago, third-party sellers topped Amazon’s own sales. They now make up 58%. Who are they?...
Between 40% to 48% of top third-party sellers on Amazon are operating out of China. The massive growth in Chinese third-party sellers has been fairly recent and transformative.
What Amazon Prime members are really buying is membership in a club that helps third-party sellers from China push counterfeit and imitation products to Americans. Amazon acts as a middle man, charging Chinese sellers and American customers for handling listing, shipping and sales...

In 2014, the CIA announced a $600 million cloud contract with Amazon. Considering Amazon’s dependency on China, granting it that kind of access was an absurdly terrible idea. And yet, Amazon then went on to win a $10 billion military cloud contract that it has since fortunately lost.
Amazon’s federal contract revenues rose from $200 million in 2014 to $2 billion now. Much of that money flows to Amazon from that entity its boss’ paper calls the intelligence community.

Few have noted the curious triangle between the money flowing from the intelligence community to Amazon, and the Washington Post’s role in pushing supposed material from the intelligence community against President Trump, his trade war, and Amazon’s China business...
Amazon is hardly alone among Big Tech companies in benefiting from Trump’s defeat...
