relief bills (~3%) which the SF Fed acknowledged were better choices than risking a much harder recovery from 'Disinflation' caused by not providing relief.

Biden has done all the right things thus far...a) he's pushed as hard as he can on Vaccinations for COVID...to the point where we just might be past the "Pandemic Stage", thus enabling supply chains to return to normal operation...b) doing all he can toward solidifying EU/U.S. sanctions against Putin and U.S./NATO military assistance for Ukraine...can't ask for more than that.

We can't give up on the goal of squeezing Russia enough to cause them to remove Putin from power, so that inflationary factor is going to be here for awhile...but for the good of the entire world's future.

Biden's administration is a disaster as was the Afgan fiasco and his Socialist agena along with the Border Crisis. Massive fraud is the only chance the Dems will have in November and I'm sure they will try it again. The will be crushed if the election is anywhere near honest.

issues. Look at the charts starting January 20, 2021. It all starts there. I know it’s disappointing what a failure Joe has been.

jobs disappeared, the country was in free-fall but yeah, nothing happened during his final year as POTUS.

Not a Cult!

Inflation is at 8.5 % and gas over $4.00 a gallon. Both expected to keep climbing. Joe’s awesome.

gonna take the fall. The democrats need to find another candidate for 2024 just like the republicans need to find someone other than Trump. Most politicians take all the credit when things are going great but place blame when things are going bad. Biden and Trump both are real good at it.

denying that people try to commit fraud (e.g. Nevada Republican using his deceased wife's ballot to vote for Trump)...but we already have the means to uncover such frauds when an election is close...as Georgia did with its three recounts...one being by hand.

The 2020 election was won fair and square...that's why every county, in every state in the Union...including the reddest of red states...concurred that Joe Biden is our President.

Btw, I don't recall ANY other race or ballot proposition being challenged and overturned...just one contest...Donald J. Trump's quest to be re-elected, and saved from oblivion...didn't work out for that malignant narcissist...poor guy.

Trump scored more electoral votes than Hillary. The vote count has never been questioned in the same light the run count in the 2017 World Series is not in dispute.

Did their sign stealing help the Astros’ road to the World Series championship? Most people believe it did.

Did Russia’s orchestrated disinformation campaign help Trump’s trip to White House in 2016? Most people believe it did.

"A new report by the U.S. intelligence community on Tuesday says Russia sought to help former President Donald Trump in last year's presidential election. But the document also emphasized there was no indication Russia or any other country attempted to alter actual votes.

Russian President Vladimir Putin authorized "influence operations aimed at denigrating President Biden's candidacy and the Democratic Party, supporting Trump, undermining public confidence in the electoral process and exacerbating socio-political divisions in the U.S," says the report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

The unclassified document is the most comprehensive look the intelligence community has released regarding foreign efforts to meddle in the 2020 election.

But the central message is the same one the intelligence community has been delivering since last August: Russia wanted Trump to win, though its effort was not on the same scale as in the 2016 election.
No evidence of vote fraud

U.S. election officials have repeatedly described last year's balloting as secure and free of fraud. The intelligence community says in its finding that there was no fraud from abroad either.

"We have no indications that any foreign actor attempted to alter any technical aspect of the voting process in the 2020 US elections, including voter registration, casting ballots, vote tabulation, or reporting results," the report says.

Trump and his supporters have offered a slew of unsubstantiated claims about election fraud by foreign countries, such as Venezuela.

During the campaign, Trump played down reports by the U.S. intelligence community that Russia was seeking to assist him. He made the counter-claim that China was making a major push to support Biden.

But Trump offered no evidence, and the intelligence report says China chose not to get directly involved in the U.S. election.

"We assess that China considered but did not deploy influence efforts intended to change the outcome of the U.S. presidential election," the report says. "China sought stability in its relationship with the United States, did not view either election outcome as being advantageous enough for China to risk getting caught meddling."

In the wake of Russia's 2016 election interference, the U.S. intelligence community dramatically increased its efforts to prevent a repeat.

U.S. officials say the Russians did not operate on the same scale, and were not able to hack sensitive campaign emails or wage a widespread social media campaign.

"A key element of Moscow's strategy this election cycle was its use of proxies linked to Russian intelligence to push influence narratives — including misleading or unsubstantiated allegations against President Biden — U.S. media organizations, U.S. officials, and prominent U.S. individuals, including some close to former President Trump and his administration," report says.

The report named Ukrainian legislator Andrii Derkach as someone who "played a prominent role in Russia's election influence activities. Derkach has ties to Russian officials as well as Russia's intelligence services."

The U.S. Treasury Department placed sanctions on Derkach last year.

Derkach has had contact in recent years with Trump's former personal lawyer, Rudolph Giuliani, who in turn spread unsubstantiated claims about Biden's work in Ukraine when Biden was vice president under President Barack Obama.

The intelligence report also says that Iran's leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei authorized an influence campaign to harm Trump, though the operations cited did not suggest they had any significant impact.

"We assess that Iran primarily relied on cyber tools and methods to conduct its covert operations because they are low cost, deniable, scalable, and do not depend on physical access to the United States," the report notes.

the 2016 election issues revolved around email hacking of the DNC (only)...collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia (per U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee) to enable the targeting of disinformation to selected groups of voters (e.g. Paul Manafort sharing polling data with a Russian intermediary)...James Comey's ill-advised comments about Hillary Clinton just before the election...and several other questionable activities.

email to send classified information through maybe it
wouldn’t have gotten hacked,

that those efforts can be rooted out upon review...and in the case of the 2020 election, they were...this should make you very happy.

That the type of fraud allegedly perpetrated would not be detected with the normal review protocols.

I challenge you to watch the movie, take notes, and tell us where they got it wrong.

a formal suit filed for voter fraud in the 2020 election based on this "Blockbuster"...I hope no one spends any of their hard-earned money on this, but I fear that the same folks who bilked millions out of gullible Americans with HCQ and Ivermectin, will line their pockets again.

jakers, Baron, Ned, Tampa, et al believe Russia and other foreign bad actors have a First Amendment right to interfere in US elections (ala 2016) and that the United States should roll over and play dead, out of fear of becoming an Orwellian nation.

Perhaps they should educate themselves and read what the US Supreme Court said about whether foreign entities enjoy First Amendment protection in an opinion authored by Justice Kavanaugh.

Sorry Cape for hijacking your thread. Do not agree with your premise.

My point is that if one believes in election integrity, it does not make sense to quickly label Homeland Security's endeavor to combat disinformation (perpetrated by foreign actors) as a bad thing.

And if one believes in national security, it does not make sense to quickly label Homeland Security's endeavor to defend ourselves from cyber warfare as a bad thing. See what is currently happening between Russia and Ukraine.
