Why is that Trump will not take Russia's involvement in the elections seriously. They threaten the very foundations of the Republic.
Trump, oth, weaponizes the office of the presidency and goes after the DOJ/FBI, which are the premier defenders of the Rule of Law.
Does Trump want our nation to under the Rule of Man? Him? I think so.
5 key takeaways from the latest indictment in Mueller's Russia probe
5 key takeaways from the latest indictment in Mueller's Russia probe
1. The Russians allegedly hacked America's election infrastructure, including state election boards and secretaries of state. The allegations in Friday's indictment went well beyond merely hacking the Clinton campaign and Democratic campaign committees. From one state election board, the Russians managed to steal information on 500,000 voters, Rosenstein said, although he did not identify which state. Trump won the 2016 election by winning three key states by slim margins that added up to around 80,000 votes.
The Russians also "targeted state and local offices responsible for administering the elections; and sent spearphishing emails to people involved in administering elections, with malware attached," Rosenstein said. He stressed, however, that the indictments contained "no allegation that the conspiracy altered the vote count or changed any election result."
2. An American congressional candidate allegedly asked for, and received, stolen documents about his or her opponent from the Russians. According to the indictment, the operatives allegedly provided stolen campaign documents to a candidate for Congress. "On or about August 15, 2016, the conspirators received a request for stolen documents from a candidate for U.S. Congress," the indictment said. The conspirators "sent the candidate stolen documents related to the candidate's opponent."
The candidate was not identified in the indictment.
