.....and in other news, a couple million illegal aliens voted in our last election......crickets.

This is the number one ongoing issue in this country right now.

Everything else is second to this.

[colorado tanker]

And Jeh knows that “fact” by not inspecting the DNC server?

[thinden]

could that have been one of the Awan brother’s sitting behind trey gowdy during the hearings?

[blueplum]

it sure needs to be fixed. The only way that Hillary garnered a majority vote had to be illegals because in general the Bernie people stayed home or wrote Stein/Bernie in

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

And they denied inspection of their servers because it would have shown no ‘Hacking’ was involved, but instead a USB stick was used to remove files.

Plus they would not want the feds to discover evidence of DNC crimes.

[samtheman]

Almost all of Hillary’s supposedly higher popular vote margin came from one state:

California

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

I actually think Johnson is telling the truth here. For once!

Maybe not completely true.

He also confirmed that while Russia, at the direction of President Vladimir Putin, orchestrated cyberattacks on the United States to influence the 2016 presidential election

What "cyberattacks?" Oh yeah, that's classified.

[JWNM]

And yet CNN had a headline earlier, “DHS officials: 21 states potentially targeted by Russia hackers pre-election”. That qualifier, “potentially” is really important. Didn’t Obama tell the nation in October that our elections couldn’t be hacked and to “stop whining”?

Didn’t Obama tell the nation in October that our elections couldn’t be hacked and to “stop whining”?

Yes, but that was when they were sure Hillary was going to win. "Situational truth."

[Sam Gamgee]

The mean those same Russophobes that were Russophiles until about July or so of 2016 when the “conspiracy talk” began?

[Behind the Blue Wall]

I think the lack of forensics around the DNC hack really should be followed up on by our side. This whole Russian conspiracy theory is all based on a crime that the “victims” showed zero interest in having investigated.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

NSA servers probably scooped up all the online network data from/to DNC but even if they agreed to disclose it what investigators at DOJ would see would be “redacted” at best.

[combat_boots]

IIRC, the DNC was notified that as least 5 State actors had gotten their data. FBI or DHS told the DNC.

The DNC did nothing.

The only one we hear about is Russia!Russia!Russia!

[Behind the Blue Wall]

Yeah maybe, but in the “report” they issues in January, there were no indications given that they had precisely tracked the hack via NSA data, and given the alternative possibility (a leak), it would seem that at some point in the process a forensic examination of the actual server would be necessary, if only to eliminate that possibility.

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

I believe Assange that it was a leak, not a hack. But this is what the media does:

[RitaOK]

Any Live video available of that open hearing?

Haven’t seen any notice that it was, or will be, televised on FR, that’s for sure. No side bar, no nothing.

What’s going on around here.
