| FBI and CISA say Iran is behind 'Enemies of the People' site targeting election officials |
| 2020-12-24 |
| [WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Federal Sherlocks revealed that a so-called "Enemies of the People" website that hurled accusations and threats at U.S. election officials in the wake of the 2020 presidential election was likely set up and operated by actors working for the Iranian regime.The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said Wednesday that the two groups "possess highly credible information indicating Iranian cyber actors almost certainly were responsible for the creation of a website called Enemies of the People, which contained death threats aimed at U.S. election officials in mid-December 2020." The bureau said it "has identified multiple domains, to include the main site ... that contained personal information and photographs for a number of U.S. officials and individuals from private sector entities involved with the 2020 election" and that "threatening emails were sent to the officials" from associated email accounts. The website is offline. "The post-election creation of the Enemies of the People website demonstrates an ongoing Iranian intent to create divisions and mistrust in the United States and undermine public confidence in the U.S. electoral process," the FBI and CISA said. "As referenced in Joint Cybersecurity Advisories [from late October] the FBI and CISA have previously warned that Iranian cyber actors were likely intent on influencing and interfering with the 2020 U.S. elections." |

| #2 I never saw the site "Enemies of the People." It is doubtful the Dems need Iran, China or Russia to steal an election. That's not to say they didn't try to help steal the election in various ways. Most likely stealing the 2020 election began back in 2016. If we had an uncorrupted DOJ or FBEYE and not blinded by their hatred for Trump, they would have been all over this long ago. The Dem Party has been pre-occupied with destroying Trump since before the 2016 election. The media has done no favorable reporting on Trump during this whole time. RINOS also think they know more than the American people; they have been a part of the incessant, ongoing coup. We have a couple of liberal friends who actually acknowedged the coup and said they were in favor of it. Personally, I think that is a terrible thing to say. With such friends, who needs enemies? |
