actual election shut down the servers that you send results to interfere with the operation of voting machines because still too many of them are linked to the internet. so there we are still very vulnerable russia's meddling in the midterm elections may just be a hypothesis at this point but the trumpet ministration from the department of homeland security to the secretary of state are ready to fight the two thousand and eighteen mid-term elections remain a potential target for russian cyber and influence operations i think we should be absolutely prepared to assume that they will try to interfere in all fifty states we will not tolerate russian interference in our two thousand and eighteen elections we are planning and preparing as if they'll try again this fall and beyond now it hasn't happened yet but the retaliate tory sanctions to be imposed on russia are all set up by congress we're going to pursue russia's energy and financial sectors it's oligarchs it's parastatal and to tease it is my goal along

with senator graham to make sure that we're protecting the united states the spending the united states folks in washington d.c. are manning their battle stations all prepared to face an on coming on slot but what are they worried about well it could be the twenty sixteen presidential elections let's not forget that james clapper the former director of national intelligence said that in the twenty sixteen supposed intervention none of the vote tallies were in any way affected they did not change any votes teles or anything of that sort you know we had no we had no way of gauging. the impact that sort of the intelligence community can't gauge the impact it had on the choices of the electorate made furthermore it's not exactly clear who russia is supposedly going to be supporting now the democrats say that russia is going to be supporting donald trump but trump says that the pending kremlin subversion will be in support
4:06 pm
of the democrats why would he say that well because it makes just as about sense is what the democrats have a say about trope everybody wants to blame another country for the problem you know the reason why thirty million americans do. have health care has nothing to do with russia that has everything to do with the enemies of america which by the way are in america acts on the military industrial complex these are the enemies of america are tired government is bought it's legal bribery and they steal and cheat right out in the open americans guard gobbling this up it's amazing you know we used to be afraid of russia because they had a communist ideology they're just kind of pressing that button on americans because we've been conditioned to be afraid of russia and they're communism even though they're not communists anymore this will all be cleared up after the election whichever side loses can blame russia for it and after all it worked in the twenty sixteen presidential election for hillary clinton there is no reason that donald trump can't use it to his advantage caleb mop and artsy washington d.c.

the allegations of meddling continue to be hugely divisive on. the views of the media and this law no democratic political consultant richard goodstein liberal politicians frequently blame russia for various things as well to believe that's the real cause of the problems in the u.s. still there are other divisions what do you think. i don't think people are blaming russia for anything that happens in the united states other than what our intelligence community concluded unanimously which with which of the russians attacked the united states to mock or see it way that they. have meddled frankly makes it look kind of pity. kind of really kind of piddly. it's meddling in the way that osama bin laden meddled with the world trade center that was an attack dick cheney. fan of generally ira had said that what our actions did
