Georgia: Feds Tried to Hack Our Election Systems

Fix this Nation ^ | 12-9-2016 | staff

Posted on ‎12‎/‎13‎/‎2016‎ ‎12‎:‎23‎:‎27‎ ‎PM by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

As Sen. Lindsey Graham vows to lead a congressional investigation into Russia’s involvement in the 2016 election, Georgia officials have their eye on tampering a little closer to home.

According to state officials, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security tried to gain access to Georgia’s voting systems in the week following the presidential election. Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp sent a letter to Homeland chief Jeh Johnson this week asking why his agency tried, unsuccessfully, to blast past the state’s firewall software days after Donald Trump was elected president.

“At no time has my office agreed to or permitted DHS to conduct penetration testing or security scans of our network,” Kemp wrote. “Moreover, your department has not contacted my office since this unsuccessful incident to alert us of any security event that would require testing or scanning of our network.”

In the letter, Kemp demanded to know if the agency conducted the scan and, if they did, where the authorization came from. Kemp pressed further, asking Johnson if the Georgia attempt was the only one DHS conducted without the permission of state officials.

Obama thinks he has put Trump into a box.

The worst quality of these affirmative action empty suits is their self delusion about their abilities. If he hadn't been installed by the globalists into the Presidency, Trump wouldn't even pee on Obama's leg in a urinal accident.

Russia should hit back, x 10.

That would be Obama's fondest wet dream.

Putin is smarter than that.

He can wait 3 weeks.

The hard evidence of illegal voting needs to be produced just like the hard evidence of interference by Russia needs to be produced.

US Intelligence agencies say Russia interfered.

PE Trump stated that there was massive voter fraud.

Neither of those two things is acceptable to me.

If either or both are proven we MUST DEMAND steps be taken to prevent it from happening again.

The very essence of our political life resides in FREE and FAIR elections of those who represent us.

This is not a joke.
This is not a partisan issue.

If either massive voter fraud or interference by foreign nations took place it must be found out, dealt with and any and all possible legal and diplomatic steps taken to prevent it from happening in the future.

Where is the evidence of “Russian Hacking”? There is not one shred of any evidence whatsoever. None. There is evidence that it was not the Russians directly from Julianne Assange. He is the head of Wikileaks that released to you and me the seedy insides of the Podesta emails and The criminal enterprise revealed in the DNC Emails. Why are we punishing the Russians. We should be punishing the Podesta criminals and the DNC criminals.

This Russian allegation is unsubstantiated nonsense meant to obfuscate the greatest political failure that leftist have ever had. I find this “Russian” focus almost childish.

Actually, this is nothing but Obola/Clinton SOP, as developed and used with the Benghazi atrocity where Obola's ISIS buddies perpetrated the atrocity and Clinton promptly blamed it on a video maker, going so far as to have him jailed for about two years in violation of his First Amendment rights.

That’s ok. All Trump’s DOJ needs to do is launch an investigation into the Obama Administrations interference in the Israeli elections and bring people in front of a grand jury.

Exactly! Besides, there is no evidence it was the Russians even with the DNC. Reminds me of the WMD under Bush. Can't trust our government.

This one rough looking announcer on CNN(Frederica Whitfield?) in a black sleeveless cocktail dress announced as a fact that Russians hacked our elections. How would she know? Evidence points more to a DNC insider.

All the news keeps pushing the topic that Russians hacked our elections.

Mr. Trump will now have to decide whether to lift the sanctions on the Russian intelligence agencies when he takes office next month, with Republicans in Congress among those calling for a public investigation into Russia’s actions. Should Mr. Trump do so, it would require him to effectively reject the findings of his intelligence agencies.

Correction: Those aren't Trump's intelligence agencies. They're the politicized intelligence agencies of one Barack Hussein Obama.

Try reading for comprehension

My last statement in the post you replied to:

“There needs to be a special committee appointed and a through forensic review of all of the evidence of voter fraud and foreign interference”

I find neither VOTER FRAUD, as PE Trump has stated happened, or FOREGIN INTERFERENCE, as US intelligence agencies stated happenedd, acceptable.

You might be right, Laz, but I want it all stuffed up Obama’s backside and broken off. Obama won’t ever just go away, he will continue to haunt our country until he is locked up.

I know full well that Putin is much smarter than me (you probably are too), so perhaps he can hit back.... smartly. ;>)

And they only think that said hackers got some sort of information from their hacking.

Wikileaks has been adamant about not having got their leaks from the Russians. Instead they have said it was an insider—and I believe they put up a reward for information on Seth Rich’s murder (though they have a policy of never identifying their sources specifically).

...Meanwhile, several states reported the “scanning” of their voter databases — which American intelligence agencies also attributed to Russian hackers...

The above was in the NYT article, but no mention of several states tracking the “scanning” to a DHS employee, not the Ruskies.

The democrats did NOT want their collusion with liberal media EXPOSED. Note that democrats including Podesta never could disprove what was exposed. Wikileaks published the corruption laden emails, not the Russians.

Democraps are using Russia as a straw-man, and have offered no evidence against the Russians.
