I'm thinking the new math they began teaching back in the 70s just might have something to do with this.

Whenever conservatives start talking "nonprofit organization" put your hand on your wallet and stand with your back against the wall.

FBI links Iran to online hit list targeting top officials who’ve refuted Trump’s election fraud claims

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...ff1_story.html

Quote:
The FBI has concluded that Iran was behind online efforts earlier this month to incite violence against the bureau’s director, a former top U.S. cyber expert and multiple state elections officials who’ve refuted claims of widespread voter fraud promoted by President Trump and his allies, federal and state officials said Tuesday.

FBI Director Christopher A. Wray and ousted Homeland Security Department official Christopher Krebs were among more than a dozen people whose images, home addresses and other personal information were posted on a website, Enemies of the People.

These officials had in one way or another attested to the security of the 2020 election, either before or after, saying they had not seen evidence of widespread fraud — a conclusion at odds with President Trump’s baseless claims that the election was rigged.
So, this Insane clown is an agent of Iran, or being played by them.

The corruption so bad, the fraud so widespread, the deep state so deep, it's all just more censorship!

The MAGAMoron POV.

Will not filter into the cults awareness, not close what they choose to believe.

Wow. You'd have to be as ill-informed as the Insane clown to take this bullshit seriously.
