Russia sought to interfere with the US election systems during the 2018 midterms, a US official says

The revelation comes on the heels of testimony earlier in the day from Army Gen. Paul Nakasone, chief of the US Cyber Command, who had alluded to a potential incident in testimony earlier in the day.

What will they do in 2020?" Krebs asked."That's what keeps me up at night."Krebs said that the best way to defend against unknown threats is to"make sure we are covering down on the basics" and engaging with the American public."We have to let them know there are bad people out there who try to do bad things but we've got a system here that works," he said.

Glasshearted US.

MoRe BS

China is working the cyber network in every branch of service, every government agency, to undermine the U. S. No doubt Russia is a serious problem, but China, is a serious threat!

No'1' IN PLANETARY factually GLOBAL ''F.AK.E.'' NEWS

Working with Hillary

russia has been meddling in our elections for decades even before obama, w/no effect in our election results. all we must do is keep our election systems invulnerable. we the american voters r smart, we dont vote based on social media.

BLAME THE RUSSIANS FOR THE WORK OF ISRAEL ISIS AND NETANYAHU TERRORISM SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS. REPUBLICAN WAS NOT SUPPORTING THE PRESIDENT,ESPECIALLY HOUSE SPEAKER PAUL RYAN. ISRAEL WAS UNCOMFORTABLE. SO ISRAEL ISIS RIGGED THE ELECTIONS IN DEM WAY, TO GET RID OF RYAN AND OTHERS.

Is this why the Dems won the house then

Yes FAKE NEWS but not the way you propaganda and lies celebrate.

💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💩💩💩

And Hillary with the help of the dnc rigged the dem primary even using their influence, possibly bribes, that ignored the majority of many states' primary outcome that went overwhelmingly for Bernie or all Bernie yet Hillary won due to the shills the dnc put in place.

……

In other news, the sky is still blue, sugar is still sweet and water is wet. Russians messing in our electoral system is becoming normal because they control the people who are able to put a stop to it.

Did they succeed?

Obama knee and did nothing in 16’ fbi knew and did nothing in 18’ ? What do we pay them for? What are they investigating? He indicted 12 Russians in 16’ , where are they? Whatever .

Isn't that the Democrats in California that had voter fraud in large numbers. Perhaps the left should clean up their own back yard

so fucking deperate. lol

💋🇺🇸Giuliani, our greatest Mayer of NYC cleaned up prostitution, completely...but... 💋Cuomo & Harris gains momentum among Democrats with proposal to legalize prostitution...

Name the US Official otherwise we have a Fake News story -again

Well isn't Mueller getting to the bottom of Russian interference in our elections. They're doing it while being investigated?

The biggest threat to the integrity of our elections are the millions of illegals trying to vote.

Interesting. But yet the Dems promote foreign people interfering with all elections and you dont report that.

That explains all the communists elected to the House .

Is it schiff lol

In other news sources say brianstelter is a eunuch

Obama interfered with Israel’s elections. China has interfered in not only elections but technology theft so the only reason CNN always talks about Russia is due to the brain dead leftist.

I’ve seen it twice on msnbc.

Russia issues statement: They learned a lesson helping the spy Trump007 in 2016. Turns out Trump forgot to tell them 007 is his IQ. They have apologized to the world and are now trying to correct their error.

Wow really ? That’s incredible

Guess that explains AOC

NO WAY!

HRC colluded with Russia in the 2016 election and Democrats don’t care.

Sure, yeah, uh huh, sure. Clown News Network grasping at straws is becoming pathetic.

I’ll care about Russians when we require voter ID and Democrats stop trying to allow illegals to vote. THAT’S foreign interference.

Wrong! The President said that was a hoax. However, I do recall him asking Russia for some Clinton emails; but that was probably some video the democrats doctored up. Some confusion about collusion.

Russia, Russia, Russia . . .

shut up

They'll be doing the same in 2020 for trump again

...so?

Russian trolls rushed in to reply to this.

Mattis confirms Russia interfered in US midterm elections.

Leftists are blowing smoke up our asses with this “we care about election interference”, they just voted to allow illegal aliens to vote.

Stick to what we can control like making sure illegals can't vote. Not how many click farms in North Korea are hitting the like button on twitter.

Russians didn't elect the President the Voting system did. Please stop injecting bullshit! Love l!

Ya they probably have traitor realDonaldTrump and the republicans to help them in the next elections.

But we would nehhhhhhhver try to interfere in Russia's elections. Right?

Obviously for the Democrats in the house. AOC is prime example

Of course they’d say that. Otherwise, they can’t keep up with the Russia hoax

*American Idiot Mauled by Bear*

Of course they did. This will be ongoing. They think it’s okay now 45 is in office but would have NEVER tried it before.

If they interfered in the previous election what’s holding them from doing the same thing again but being more careful and secretive

I don’t see why it would be Russia -realDonaldTrump
