    Breaking news: Two bomb threats called in from... Russia hoping to affect democratic voting.



    Non-credible bomb threats against Atlanta-area polling places were from Russia, secretary of state says | CNN

    Several non-credible bomb threats that briefly disrupted voting at two Georgia polling places originated from Russia, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told reporters Tuesday.

    “We’ve heard some threats that were of Russian origin. I don’t know how to describe that that’s viable – we don’t think they are, but in the interest of public safety, we always check that out, and we’ll just continue to be very responsible when we hear about stuff like that,” Raffensperger said. “We identified the source, and it was from Russia.”

    Extremely sad state when Russian interference in our election doesn't move the needle a single bit.

    Worse actually - half the electorate is probably either supportive of this, or at least totally dismissive.

    Still not remotely close to Trump's promise to sell out Zelensky and Ukraine and like Neville Chamberlain the Donald would probably claim that he achieved peace in our lifetime.

    LOL. Are you still comparing that benign comment from Obama to the fact that you are voting for a candidate who knowingly accepted help from Russia in an election? Probably in three, to be specific.

    There was a time when colluding with Russia in an election would have been despised by American voters. I guess it's different now - our voters think differently? Russia is good now?

    He will probably respond by referring to the narrative of Russian collusion/intervention as a hoax. He has a history of doing so.
