"Homeland security chief: "Our democracy itself is in the crosshairs"



"Our democracy itself is in the crosshairs. Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, and it has become clear that they are the target of our adversaries who seek, as the DNI just said, to sow discord and undermine our way of life," Nielsen said, referencing Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats.

What will happen is KGB will actually flip R votes to D votes, make it clear this happened, make it look like they did it to help Democrats so rump can do martial law and call all elections null and void, this was an order given to him by Putin in their meeting.

This is going to happen, we have to be prepared for it. Malcolm Nance is the one who figured it out, I am just the messenger.
