Russians viewed my local political blog. Federal & state officials will likely be hacked by Russians

My tiny little Coatesville Dems Blog was viewed by people in former Soviet countries from about July to the day before November 8, 2016. 

From August through November 8 the views on my Coatesville Dems Blog nearly doubled because about 1/2 came from former Soviet countries.


If you are a federal government or state government elected or appointed official you are most likely under surveillance by people in former Soviet countries. 

So far, ONLY Democrats care about this because:

Trump
“IN A BETTER, imaginary world, there would be no need for Thursday’s Senate hearings into whether and how the Russian government meddled in the 2016 presidential election. Instead, a combined Justice Department and congressional investigation into the subject would have started last summer and could be wrapping up right about now. 

This investigation would have been successfully carried out by the government’s normal mechanisms — because in this made up universe, politicians would care more about the country they live in than getting to the studio in time for their next appearance on Tucker Carlson Tonight. For the same reason, they’d defy the instinctive secrecy of the intelligence world in order to declassify whatever evidence they uncovered so Americans could judge it for themselves. 

Unfortunately, on this planet we’re on a trajectory to the worst possible outcome. It’s now easy to imagine a future in which Trump and Russia become the millennials’ equivalent of the John F. Kennedy assassination: A subject where no one can honestly be sure whether there was no conspiracy or a huge conspiracy, the underlying reality concealed by the thick murk of government secrecy, and progressives exhausting themselves for decades afterwards trying to prove what really happened.”
