Discussion: FBI Sets Up 'Foreign Influence' Task Force To Protect Election System

If only they start an Oligarch Influence Task Force.

Frankly, I think that the Mercers, Aldelson, the Koch Bros, Friess, Singer, ad nauseam, have done more damage to this country than the Ruskies. They are the 800 pound gorillas in the room that nobody talks about.

In my humble opinion, the FBI couldn’t find it’s ass in a dark closet with both hands and a flashlight. Be that as it may, do you really believe the Asshole-elect’s administration will provide money to stop the Russians, when it is assumed that the Russians have video of DT in a French maid’s costume giving Putin a hum job. Gimme a break!

I guess we should expect Wray’s dismissal in about six months or so.

Wray said, “You’ve got a counterintelligence dimension, a cyber dimension, a criminal dimension…a kompromat dimension, a collusion dimension… "

“I take any effort to interfere with out election system by Russia or any other nation state or non-nation state seriously, because it strikes right at the heart of who we are as a country,”

I’ll believe that when you perp-walk Trump and his entire crew of criminals out of the White House and into jail.

Pretty much this. Sitting here thinking that it would be nice to believe the words they say and yet, how is it that it is over a year after a multifaceted attack on our election process by a foreign adversary and now a task force is being set up?

A year late and $10 short…

Task Force task numero Uno.

Get (pr)resident to admit there was foreign influence.

Good luck. Happy task Forcing.

Well I feel safe now.

Whatcha gonna do about project Red Map? The Republicans are bigger crooks than the Russians.

Maybe Director Wray will also admit that sometimes the criminals are already in the house. While I’m pleased something is finally, 1 year later, being done about foreign interference, there needs to be a thorough house cleaning as well.

the FBI has a “foreign influence” task force to deal with election interference by outside actors

Start with the NY FBI and that Giuliani dude.

Stupid move by an even more stupid appointee…Start with the problem at hand…oligarchs in residence in St. Petersburg…

Advertising what you plan, in this instance, is against the PRINCIPLES and operatational procedures of the FBI…

Dumb.

Well, they’re neither foreign nor outside actors, but…point taken nonetheless.
