Back in 2011 (Obama era)....American social media showed up in Russia for the fall legislative election. No one really grasped the implications (especially with the damage already going on in the Middle East and various governments being toppled by Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube).

The ‘gimmick’ continued on into the spring of 2012, when the Russian presidential election occurred.

After this....Putin decided enough was enough. Whether it was Obama’s team orchestrating this, or the Silicon Valley dimwits...the US got targeted, and has been on this target list ever since.

I won’t say it’s purely the Obama team, or the CIA, or the Silicon Valley dimwits themselves....but whatever they did....has triggered a cyber ‘war’ that the US cannot win in the end.

Biden may be getting advice on the ‘evil’ Putin, but this mess is eight years in the making, and it can only get worse.

Yep. And even today Trump is insisting that this hack was not his Russian paymasters. It’s sheer insanity.
