Hi guys,

Apologies in advance, I'm in Gdansk (a nice break from reallty, am I right!)

I'd still really like to see the stats mentioned previously. 

Would be great to mull them over, over a few beers. Cheers in advance.

Hands up anyone who's shocked.

Christopher Wray, the FBI director, on Thursday warned that Russia is interfering in the 2020 US presidential elections with a steady stream of misinformation aimed at undermining Democrat Joe Biden as well as sapping Americans’ confidence in the election process.

Moscow is also attempting to undercut what it sees as an anti-Russian US establishment, Wray told the Democratic-led House of Representatives’ homeland security committee in a hearing on Capitol Hill.

He said his biggest concern was a “steady drumbeat of misinformation” that he said he feared could undermine confidence in the result of the 2020 election.

Wray repeatedly addressed election meddling in his testimony to the House committee, saying the bureau is committed to blocking such interference efforts in this year’s elections.

He specifically said the bureau has witnessed “very active efforts by the Russians to influence our election in 2020”.

Russian agents, Wray said, were mainly trying to affect the election through “malign foreign influence”, such as social media, state media and the use of proxies.

He noted the Russians’ efforts were meant “primarily to denigrate vice-president Biden and what the Russians see as kind of an anti-Russian establishment”.

Wray’s testimony follows a 7 August warning by the director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center that Russia, China and Iran were all trying to interfere in the 3 November election.

Multiple reviews by US intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia acted to boost Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and damage his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton. The Republican president has long bristled at that finding, which Russia officially denies despite special counsel Robert Mueller indicting Russian operatives for meddling in order to help Trump.

The next debated between Biden and Trump will be digital apparently.

Hope they include a mute function for the moderator this time.

Is he . . . is he giving up?

EDIT: Having watched the video, 'giving up' isn't the vibe, but I'm not quite sure what is. 'Rank desperation' I suppose, and the reason for not doing the debate is that he's fundamentally deeply unwell, which might provide an awkward contrast to this new 'medical hype-man' pose.

Perhaps they can't find enough meth to pump him full of to power through the debate.

The irony that Trump wanted Biden to be tested for drugs a couple weeks ago.

Yes, that was the exact claim wasn't it, that one of them wasn't well and that he would need to be tested for drugs if he actually showed up to the debate. Shame Republicans were saying it about the wrong candidate.

Incidentally the video could have been 41 seconds long and he'd have had plenty of time to say everything he said in the video. He's the master of speaking without actually saying anything.

 

Trying to flog something and literally telling people IT IS A CURE (when it very much is not) is **** frightening

Makes me realise why infomercials are a thing on the TV in the states - obviously some dumb words removed are buying that shit. 

It's an absolute shame that country, with so much potential has so many **** zombies aimlessly making less moronic people very wealthy.
