";Will U.S. sanctions against Russia fix cybersecurity?
I was looking at the busy Mining Awareness' post
We are advised the polls are insulated from the Net.
That is an obvious step - but hardly one which has been cause of concern.
Before the nonsense that the usual 'fall guy' Russia is being a Bad Boy started up, we knew that polling stations were open to domestic hacking. BradBlog has been writing up insecure Diebold voting machines for years. You can even find a YouTube video demonstrating the faking procedure.
After the debacle in California over votes regarding Sanders' candidacy and improper polling station eligibility practices, the DNC should be quiet like a churchmouse over such matters. You know the line ; 'Pardon me, but your slip is showing.'

Guess I'd never make a government analyst. The b.s. is far too thick to maintain sanity. Big Brother really is watching you.

Chris Hedges, who has a show on RT, has an insightful piece at Truthdig. He digs into what's happening with the Russia scare and gets to the bottom of it.
I wish Democrats (and Bernie Sanders) would stop patting themselves on the back about how virtuous and 'woke' they are, get their heads out of their asses, and realize the real threat is a lot bigger and more powerful than Donald Trump. It's the MIC, stupid! And who's the biggest customer? The same one that lavishes money on politicians, colleges and universities, think tanks, and 'charities' like the Clinton political slush fund, aka the Clinton Foundation.
Who am I referring to? That real threat to democracy, the radical Islamist terrorist state of Saudi Arabia to whom the USG has given an indefinite waiver to escape sanctions for gross violations of religious freedom; the perpetrator of ongoing war crimes in Yemen using American weapons, support, maintenance, logistics, and targeting assistance; and funder of the 9/11 terrorists, Al Qaida, and IS.
But pay no mind! Focus on the bromance of Vlad and Donald and the danger that poses to Hillary, I mean our democracy. Pay no mind to the American tanks recently moved to Germany and on their way to Poland to prevent what the MIC is fear-mongering as the imminent invasion of Europe by Russia.

What about the real foreign influence on American politics ?

Also Worth Your While on the Russia Hacking Lie
I find it laughable that the so-called Intelligence Community Assessment asserted:
We assess Putin, his advisers, and the
Russian Government developed a clear preference for President-elect
Trump over Secretary Clinton.
Clinton advocated arming radical jihadists in Syria, eliminating Bashar
Al Assad, imposing a No Fly Zone in Syria (which would risk a military
confrontation with Russia), providing arms to countries on the western
border of Russia and expanding NATO. Trump? Almost exactly opposite on
each of these policies. Hell, I preferred Trump over Clinton for this
very reason. I guess that makes me a Putin puppet.
Not a single piece of evidence was referenced in the report issued last Friday.

Putin's Sassy Trolling Was Sending Message to Trump
Putin's play was clear: He aimed to emerge from this exchange as the
more mature leader, focused on building bridges rather than tit-for-tat
exchanges.
"It positions Putin as someone who seizes the moral high-ground," according to John Lough, an associate fellow at Chatham House, a London-based think tank. "He's a streetwise person who knows how this game is played."

Trump Finally Acknowledges Russia Role in US Election Hacking; Russia Needs ExxonMobil Technology So Badly?
and clicked the link to the DHS notice, coordinated with the NIE , about election security..We are advised the polls are insulated from the Net.

It Looks Like I Am Not The Only One Who Is Disappointed With The U.S. Intel Report On Russian Hacking
Julian Assange: It’s Not An Intelligence Report (Full Press Conference and Q&A) + Abby Martin on ODNI Report: It’s Insane!
Dandelion Salad Closet Gym Guy on Jan 9, 2017 The entire recording of Julian Assange’s press conference this morning. ‘Not an intelligence report’: WikiLeaks editor Julian Assange slams ODNI RT on Jan 9, 2017 WikiLeaks editor Julian Assange criticized the recent ODNI report describing it as ‘quite embarrassing to the reputations of the US intelligence […]
I was never that impressed by the tale of Russian derring-do in hacking for political purposes. Not that I think the mafia innocents. Mossad or the Chinese would have been more plausible. When Wikileaks states flat out that Russia was not the source and Craig Murray volunteers that he had couriered it...well, that cookie crumbled.
New Intelligence Report Fails to Prove Russia Behind DNC/Clinton Campaign Leaks
[image: new-intelligence-report-falis-to-prove-russia-behind-dnc-clinton-campaign-leaks] On Friday, the intelligence community followed up on a previous report by issuing “a declassified version of a highly classified assessment that has been provided to the President and to recipients approved by the President.” The new report — entitled “Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections” — makes the same bold claims as (and offers no more proof than) the previous Joint Analysis Report (JAR) by DHS and the FBI released in late December.
Not a Shred of Evidence that Russia Hacked Emails or Served as a Source for WikiLeaks by David Swanson
Anti-Propaganda Propaganda
I'll give credit where it's due. A New York Times "explainer" piece about how Russian propaganda gets done in the United States is a pretty slick piece of propaganda itself.
It insidiously casts doubt upon independent media at the same time it tries to get the patriotic war drums pounding in the brains of its readers.
The headline blares out its piercingly shrill dog-whistle of a warning to the reading public: Russian Hackers Find Ready Bullhorns in the Media. In other words, the media outlets that published DNC and Clinton campaign emails are, if not exactly traitorous, extremely careless and naive. And if you the reader don't want to be considered traitorous or careless or naive yourself, you'll be very, very careful about what you choose to peruse.

The Biggest Bombshell since Clarkson quit Top Gear
Now that the dust is beginning to settle, a bit more on the story that Craig posted earlier. It’s very sad that the UK media has pounced on this story - some would call it a non-story - about Al Jazeera’s undercover ‘revelations’ which they are presenting as evidence that Israel is controlling the UK government.
