Russian hackers probed election systems in all 50 states, a new Senate report confirmed Thursday.
The report comes one day after former special counsel Robert Mueller told Congress that the Russian government is working to meddle in U.S. elections "as we sit here."
"It wasn't a single attempt," Mueller said Wednesday of Russia's 2016 election interference. "They're doing it as we sit here. And they expect to do it during the next campaign."
The bipartisan report by the Senate Intelligence Committee released Thursday confirmed previous comments by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that Russian hackers scanned election systems in all 50 states ahead of the 2016 presidential election. DHS initially acknowledged Russian attempts to hack into election systems in just 21 states.

If you don't believe that Trump has done things that he would rather were not made public, then you haven't been paying attention.
But the Russians and/or others would rather that they were not made public unless they can benefit from the incident, because it would mean that they have lost their leverage.

Not every old man is an Epstein, Weinstein, Moonves, Cosby, Kennedy, Clinton, etc.
There do actually exist old men who are not sex offenders, although the legacy media seems to be trying very hard to normalize it for obvious political reasons.
