Russian Cyber Hacks on U.S. Electoral System Far Wider Than Previously Known

[Straw Man]

Nothing to see here and we should definitely stop looking at this

Jeff Sessions isn't worried this (couldn't even be bothered to get briefed on it) so we know it's no big deal
It was only 39 states.  I'll start getting interested when they hit 40 states

Russian Cyber Hacks on U.S. Electoral System Far Wider Than Previously Known

Russia’s cyberattack on the U.S. electoral system before Donald Trump’s election was far more widespread than has been publicly revealed, including incursions into voter databases and software systems in almost twice as many states as previously reported.

In Illinois, investigators found evidence that cyber intruders tried to delete or alter voter data. The hackers accessed software designed to be used by poll workers on Election Day, and in at least one state accessed a campaign finance database. Details of the wave of attacks, in the summer and fall of 2016, were provided by three people with direct knowledge of the U.S. investigation into the matter. In all, the Russian hackers hit systems in a total of 39 states, one of them said.

The apparent lack of concern from this administration on the Russian interference confused me from day 1.

no one on this board seems too concerned either

so much for giving a rats ass about Democracy

maybe when the Russians decide to favor a Dem over a Republican they will suddenly get concerned

at the moment this is their collective response

Weird how Obama did nothing about this since it happened on his watch. The apparent lack of concern by that administration is confusing.

Not true I'd like to understand more about it and how it was done. If there was anybody in the trump campaign that helped.

The difference is I also wanted to know more about Obama spying on the press and why the IRS targeted conservative groups and why Lerner pleaded the fifth oh and let's not forget why Hilary deleted thousands more emails then she ever turned over.

I remember you straw pointing to the fact that the IRS had denied a handful of lib groups.

If you want clarity in your government you should always want it, not just when it's against your politics foes

[TheGrinch]

Yep...OP is right.... Russia made me vote for Trump instead of who I really wanted to vote for --- Hildog 2016 !!



Seriously.... WTF

Because he and all the rest of the communists thought Hillary was a shoe in.

The Russians made me vote for Trump.

[Las Vegas]

Notice the misleading headline, for one thing.

[Irongrip400]

 From what I've read, their interference was more about releasing information about Hilary than actually tampering with voter booths.

According to Dems, Russia hacked voting booths, the DNC, made Hillary perform a robot walk, and altered voters minds.

It's not the Russian's fault that Podesta fell for a phishing scheme.

Nor was it the Russian's fault that a disgruntled DNC staff member went rouge and turned over the DNC emails to Wikileaks.




the material in question was not forged or fake either.

try actually reading the article in the original post

I know you Trumptards have issues with reality and also short term memory but stills seems hard to believe you've forgotten this already given all the allegations against Michael Flynn and other people around The Bloatus

Obama expels 35 Russian diplomats in retaliation for US election hacking

The Obama administration on Thursday announced its retaliation for Russian efforts to interfere with the US presidential election, ordering sweeping new sanctions that included the expulsion of 35 Russians.

US intelligence services believe Russia ordered cyber-attacks on the Democratic National Committee (DNC), Hillary Clinton’s campaign and other political organizations, in an attempt to influence the election in favor of the Republican candidate, Donald Trump.

In a statement issued two weeks after the president said he would respond to cyber-attacks by Moscow “at a time and place of our choosing”, Obama said Americans should “be alarmed by Russia’s actions” and pledged further action.

“I have issued an executive order that provides additional authority for responding to certain cyber activity that seeks to interfere with or undermine our election processes and institutions, or those of our allies or partners,” Obama said in the statement, released while he was vacationing with his family in Hawaii.

“Using this new authority, I have sanctioned nine entities and individuals: the GRU and the FSB, two Russian intelligence services; four individual officers of the GRU; and three companies that provided material support to the GRU’s cyber operations.

“In addition, the secretary of the treasury is designating two Russian individuals for using cyber-enabled means to cause misappropriation of funds and personal identifying information.” He also announced the closure of two Russian compounds in the US.

Obama added that more actions would be taken, “some of which will not be publicized”.

For fucks sake you're stupid

First it wasn't Podesta

Second it NEVER HAPPENED....remember

that would mean that the Russians were involved in trying to effect the outcome of our election in favor of Trump and the story on this board (and from The BLOATUS) is that never happened

try to keep up with your own sides bullshit

What lies? She could very well legitimately be in violation of the espionage act. It's no secret that her and Obama are traitors.

agreed,
you inability to post a youtube video given the hundreds of times you've had it explained to you is a crime

I have no idea what's on the video because I didn't watch it

If you think it shows a crime of some sort then report it to the police or your congressperson

You didn't watch it just like you didn't read Wikileaks, Veritas or anything else that did in Clinton. This is why left lost and you fell for it. If you're too damn lazy to open the link and then use the excuse because I didn't use the YouTube link because it doesn't work for me posting from a phone, then fuck you. You deserved to lose....

I get it, you're posting from a phone so you can't get YT function to work

can you summarize the video and then maybe I'll think it's worth checking out?
