Hot on the heals of that announcement, we also had this from CISA:
U.S. officials now worry about election logistics more than hacking
Quote:
In a reversal from a few years ago, many officials who oversee U.S. election technology and outside security experts now worry less about hacking in the November elections than about misinformation and logistics such as a shortage of poll workers and slowdowns at the U.S. postal service.

COVID-19 poses a greater risk to the election than China/Russia/Iran.
The Russia narrative is leftist propaganda. No doubt we're gonna hear a Ukrainian narrative soon too which will be rightist propaganda. Ignore both and go vote as early and safely as possible.

The Russian narrative is also a neocon one. They, the neocons, want to enhance the MIC and they are mad because after they put Putin in Power he double crossed them.

Unwanted Truths: Inside Trump’s Battles With U.S. Intelligence Agencies
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/08/m...elligence.html
Quote:
Under Trump, intelligence officials have been placed in the unusual position of being pressured to justify the importance of their work, protect their colleagues from political retribution and demonstrate fealty to a president. Though intelligence officials have been loath to admit it publicly, the cumulative result has been devastating. Representative Sean Patrick Maloney, a Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, compared the O.D.N.I.’s decline under Trump to that of the Justice Department, where “they have, step by step, set out to destroy one of the crown jewels of the American government,” he told me. “And they’re using the same playbook with the intelligence community.”
The O.D.N.I.’s erosion has in turn shaped the information that flows out of the intelligence community to the White House — or doesn’t. The softening of Key Judgment 2 signified a sobering new development of the Trump era: the intelligence community’s willingness to change what it would otherwise say straightforwardly so as not to upset the president. “To its credit, the intelligence community resisted during the earlier part of the president’s term,” Representative Adam Schiff, the Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, told me. “But by casting out Dan Coats and then Maguire, and replacing them with loyalists, I think over time it’s had the effect of wearing the intelligence community down, making them less willing to speak truth to power.”

Frightening abuse of power by Orange Shitstain and his sycophants. The article in its entirety is required reading for anyone who gives a damn about our democracy.

The threat to U.S. elections is real, and frightening. The public has a right to know.
By Richard Blumenthal
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...dcc_story.html
Quote:
The warning lights are flashing red. America’s elections are under attack.
This week, I reviewed classified materials in the Senate’s Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility and received a similarly classified briefing on malign foreign threats to U.S. elections. I was shocked by what I learned — and appalled that, by swearing Congress to secrecy, the Trump administration is keeping the truth about a grave, looming threat to democracy hidden from the American people. On Friday, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a statement that only hints at the threats.
The facts are chilling. I believe the American public needs and deserves to know them. The information should be declassified immediately.

What tRump doesn't want us to know. The Russians want Donny right where he is. Russian help
Quote:
Reuters
The Trump administration reportedly pressured the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to delete part of a report that concluded Russia was aiming to help Trump win reelection in 2020.
When former director of national intelligence Dan Coats refused to delete that conclusion from the report, Trump forced him to retire earlier than planned, according to an investigation by The New York Times Magazine.

Question for Barr: how are Flynn’s confessed lies to the FBI (repeated to the VP) not a crime, but Clinesmith changing an email (the full version of which he also sent to DOJ) is?

Senate panel told Justice Dept. of suspicions over Trump family members’ Russia testimony
https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...9a6_story.html
Quote:
The Republican and Democratic chairmen of the Senate Intelligence Committee notified federal prosecutors last year of their suspicion that several individuals, including President Trump’s family members and confidants, might have presented misleading testimony in the panel’s investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election, people familiar with the matter said.
The list of individuals included the president’s son, Donald Trump Jr., and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, whose accounts of their pre-election meeting with a Russian lawyer were contradicted by the president’s former deputy campaign chairman Rick Gates in interviews that were part of the criminal investigation led by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, these people said. Like others, they spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss what remains a highly politicized and sensitive matter.

Of course they lied. They’re Trumps. It’s what they do. Billy Barr, naturally, will cover this up.
