In this day and age when you have DNC lawyers arguing that the rigging of primary elections is somehow protected under the First Amendment, lying becomes the standard operating procedure for these folks.

The Department of Homeland Security slammed NBC News for spreading information that is “not accurate” to advance their election hacking theories.

Former President Barack Obama’s administration found that at least seven states’ election systems were compromised prior to the 2016 presidential election.

An intelligence assessment report found that election systems were compromised between July 2016 to January 2017.

The report found that systems in Alaska, Arizona, California, Illinois, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin were breached, but nothing was altered.

The assessment found that no voters were taken off the rolls and that it did not have any effect on total vote tallies in the 2016 presidential election.

The systems were scanned, not hacked — but NBC was caught spreading fake news to bolster their case about alleged Russia meddling in the election.

NBC claimed there was a “paper trail” proving that seven states’ election systems were hacked by the Russians, which is a complete lie.

DHS fired back NBC for publishing their grossly incompetent report, adding that the systems were not altered in any capacity.
