Why do the DemRats never mention Obama’s blatant interference in Israel’s election?
I think the best response to what is taking place right now, is to mention and verify that the Clintons and Obama sent their own people over to interfere in the Israeli and British elections. They did it right out in the open.
Finally somebody said it.
Can’t believe this crap has been propagated in the media for as long as it has.
Nobody interferes in elections like the US. Period. Been doing it for decades.
I hope it isn’t even a topic of their discussions today.
And now, after stating the obvious, Paul is even more detested by the far left.
Spot on, Senator!
Carter, Clinton and Obama all openly meddled in Israeli elections. And the CIA pulled all sorts of shenanigans in Italy over the decades trying to prevent the Communists from coming to power.
Once again though the Left can usually rely on Americans being historically ignorant.
Would you believe it, they are not even denying it. Do you know what they told us last time? They said, "Yes, we do interfere, but we are entitled to do so, because we are spreading democracy, and you are not, and so you cannot do it." Do you think this is a civilized and modern approach to international affairs?

Personally, I think the whole idea of U.S. government officials prosecuting foreigners for "interfering" in U.S. elections is a joke.
Farage (Brexit) said the same thing (essentially) this morning.
It’s having good security (like not having “password” as your password maybe, or running your comms through a server in your basement) and defense that is the key.
Sen. Paul is correct. But this excuse makes things sound like he’s excusing and explaining the reason why Trump colluded with Russia.
Watch and see if the enemedia doesn’t tear this apart.
Paging Mr. Obvious.
That’s why we’re not so hysterical. Just vigilant.
How quickly they went from ‘The Eighties called.” to “The Russians are Coming. The Russians are Coming.” True Comedy and evidence the Left has no credibility on Foreign Policy.
And Mueller indicts spy’s for spying. What does he think the CIA does?
On this issue, Rand and I are one. His perspective (and mine) is the one I have been coming from from day one regarding wondering why the hacking thing is news. Collusion, sure, except that was a farce.
I remember some ex-CIA Analyst on Fox way back before the election when Hillary first brought up Russian interference in the 2nd debate. His response was, “Yeah, of course the Russians are trying to meddle. They have in every single election since the 1940’s, that’s hardly news. And we meddle in their elections, that’s how the intelligence business works.”
Rand Paul should say that as a nation, we have FAR MORE to fear from entitled, secretive, highly politicized, unaccountable government agencies like the CIA and FBI meddling in our elections.
Paper ballots and voter ID. Next.
( After all, if the United States wants to investigate meddling) in foreign elections, Israel is a great place to look. Just not for the reason Mueller & Co. think.
First, Obama (according to The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, a close watcher of the Obama team’s Mideast work — tried to “force a rupture in the governing coalition that will make it necessary for Netanyahu to take into his government [Tzipi] Livni’s centrist Kadima Party.”
Obama colluded with the Russians....remember this (Hot mike...)....how did Obama know he would win?
Trump: "Mr. Putin, I would like to formally request that you extradite the twelve intelligence operatives who interfered in our elections."
Putin: "Come now Comrade. Would you extradite members of your intelligence community such as James Comey, Robert Mueller, or Peter Strok to face Russian justice if I requested it?
Trump: "Yes...in a heartbeat...."
Found 81 times that the U.S. interfered in other country’s elections,
Media shocked stunned nope they knew it all the time.
Did not Soetero interfere with Venezuela, Honduras, and Israel? I do know Honduras early on and Israel just as Bubba Clintoon did back in the 90’s.
