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.

    Why don't you open your own comment history and count the number of times you have talked about killing other people?

    The truth is that you are so far on the left and you don't see anything even crazier than you anymore.

    > What fucking psycho world are you living in where people are literally accused of being part of a secret marxist conspiracy by right wing public figures, and it's the left is doing a mccarthyism?

    Yes. You are not in power right now. Aren't you pissed?

    > "Double standard" doesn't begin to describe the intellectual dishonesty you're at.

    Hehahaheehee.
