With President Trump facing an impeachment trial over his efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and his son Hunter Biden, Russian military hackers have been boring into the Ukrainian gas company at the center of the affair, according to security experts.
The hacking attempts against Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company on whose board Hunter Biden served, began in early November, as talk of the Bidens, Ukraine and impeachment was dominating the news in the United States.
It is not yet clear what the hackers found, or precisely what they were searching for. But the experts say the timing and scale of the attacks suggest that the Russians could be searching for potentially embarrassing material on the Bidens — the same kind of information that Mr. Trump wanted from Ukraine when he pressed for an investigation of the Bidens and Burisma, setting off a chain of events that led to his impeachment.
The Russian tactics are strikingly similar to what American intelligence agencies say was Russia’s hacking of emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman and the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 presidential campaign. In that case, once they had the emails, the Russians used trolls to spread and spin the material, and built an echo chamber to widen its effect.
Having completely failed to confront Russian hacking, let alone deter it, Trump has tacitly invited more of it. And now, having already succeeded in handing him the election in 2016, Russians are following the same playbook to get him re-elected in 2016.

WHOA! :shocked2:
And I'm sure trump in no way requested this...
When will people understand with trump all roads lead to Putin???
Now the cultists will come on celebrating that Russia is getting to the bottom of the "crooked Bidens"...
My gas provider is sticking it to me big time this year and I'm sure Putin has something to do with it. Everything that's going wrong in my life can be traced directly back to Putin, Obama and Hillary.

What I've always found interesting is that Republicans won't stuff ballot boxes. In their minds, that constitutes an unforgivable form of election cheating. Even ballot harvesting was a bridge too far. Every other form of cheating, however, is fair game. Rationalization is a powerful thing.
Let's say worst case scenario for Biden, they find Hunter's job was predicated upon easier US influence and funding AND its verified...what happens next?

Yup a Wisconsin judge just ruled today to remove 209,000 voters from the rolls.
Just more voter suppression...
See post 3.
That doesn't answer my question, as the and verified portion nullifies your post 3.
Seriously, voter suppression, or voter deaths, voters in other states? You may not believe this but high income people will claim residence in another state to relieve them of their tax burdens. If a rich man in your state said he lived in Florida, would you really want him voting in your state and Florida?
Ya know you have made 2 or 3 baiting posts as replies to me today, knock it the **** off.Don't act stupid. It answers your question directly.
It doesn't and further, you know it doesn't.
How you know when you have asked something Cardinal won't even pretend to answer....If you don't think it answers your question, then have a more intelligent person (shouldn't be hard to find) read it slowly to you.
Funny you should mention that the only real voter fraud proven I. Wisconsin was a guy who had ho.es in both wi and Indiana.
Anyway they are raising this through so they don't have time to inform people of their removal before the election...
He came up and voted for Scott Walker 13 times...
