      Senate Intel report found "no evidence that vote tallies were altered or that voter registry files were deleted or modified" yet the big headline was that Russia "hacked all 50 states" -- weirdpic.twitter.com/vypfXHDSPy

      Some headlines used the phrasing that Russia "targeted" all 50 states. Of course "targeting" is an amorphous weasel word. Some of this "targeting" included simple, routine "scanning" of public-facing websites, which states only noticed after the Feds issued a panicked warningpic.twitter.com/srCpCZSI8U

      NYT and others blared the headline, "All 50 states were targeted by Russia in 2016," but this state says "they have seen no evidence of scanning or attack attempts related to state-wide election infrastructure in 2016." Did anyone even bother to read the report?pic.twitter.com/ViATryNoWd

      The "targeting" that we're all supposed to be up-in-arms about consisted of "pinging" public websites, which happens constantly all day everyday. That's why local officials barely took note of it. Only after the "Russian interference" narrative was introduced did anyone carepic.twitter.com/YzB1cAGuop

      In one instance, a malware "attack" initially assumed to be the Russian government was later assessed to be non-Russian criminal activity. This stuff, like so much else with the broader Russia narrative, is confirmation bias run amokpic.twitter.com/4GDubFXgLT

          Revising your assessment based on new evidence is literally the opposite of confirmation bias.

          The initial assessment presuming the Russian government to be culpable was obvious indicia of confirmation bias, but thanks for the pedantic clarification.

          The problem with this is associating code to a single source when source is released into the wild, it is pretty much reversed engineered and used in other projects

          Why can't you just go along with the "Russians are the cause to most of our problems"?? And if not Russia, how about China? We Americans love to be told how much we are being taken advantage of by our enemies. We are the good guys damnit!

          If you have been following Debbie Lusignan you would be aware that homeland under J. Johnson probed state election systems without authorization. Unfortunately links in electionfraud2016 could not be preserved. This is serious if there was a conspiracy to prevent Trump winning.

          one of the unexplained oddities of DNC hack is that hackers set up a typosquatting site (actblues[.]com) to collect donations and even created links on the DCCC website to the fake site. Seems like an odd activity for supersecret spies working for Putin personally.

          Russia hacked the emails and the President knew about it, lied and his cmpgn officials had contact with Assange, to coordinate (collude) with Wikileaks to disseminate stolen goods. Its like Watergate but it involved Russian Intel. This is HUGE, but the far right n left are evil
