The Republican Senate Intelligence Committee reaffirmed its support for the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that the Russian government interfered in the 2016 presidential election with the goal of putting Donald Trump in the Oval Office.
Senate Intel report confirms Russia aimed to help Trump in 2016
The Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin, wanted Donald Trump to become our President in 2016 and wanted the Republican Party to be in power.
He is being rewarded handsomely. America is in turmoil. The very basis of our democracy, free elections, is under attack. Who is responsible for this attack? Aided by a very conservative Supreme Court that has become so unpopular it has walled itself off from the American people, Trump and the Republican Party, of course, while Republicans remain silent.
CNN reports, "Homeland and national security officials are worried about how
Russia could significantly exploit US divisions over
the November midterms, considering scenarios like Russia staging smaller hacks of local election authorities – done with the deliberate purpose of being noticed – and then using that to seed more conspiracies about the integrity of American elections.
"
These efforts, the officials said, would be designed to dovetail with the false doubts about the 2020 presidential election spread by former President Donald Trump and many of his allies.
"Although US elections have become more secure in recent years, officials say that an
atmosphere of distrust in America’s elections, coupled with the sheer number of local election systems, means there’s no way to truly be ready for such a convergence of Russian asymmetric warfare techniques."
Is anyone surprised?
Grassroots Republicans have no idea what is going on. They avoid respected news sources and threads like this one. Republicans are not fans of reality.
