Maybe this was well covered--what was to be gained by multi agency announcement re: Super Tues?

From a pragmatic side, I didn’t see any concrete actions they were telling Dems at primaries to take. Are their interests aligned with Putin’s and they want to undermine faith in the process?

It would not surprise me if they openly lie and say election tampering is found and emanating from Ukraine so they can fully resurrect that conspiracy ahead of general election.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Hello guess now that I reread it, we could also take it at face value. Just dissonant considering administration has done virtually nothing to secure our elections since 2016.

"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, U.S. Attorney General William Barr, Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf, Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell, Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Christopher Wray, U.S. Cyber Command Commander and National Security Agency Director Gen. Paul Nakasone, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Christopher Krebs today released the following joint statement:

Tomorrow, millions of voters in more than a dozen states and territories will cast their votes in presidential primaries. ‘Super Tuesday’ will see more Americans head to the polls than any other day of the primary season. We continue to work with all 50 states, U.S. territories, local officials, political parties, and private sector partners to keep elections free from foreign interference."

I don't trust most of the above people putting out the statement, who haven't done jack about protecting our elections, so why would they care now? It kind of makes you wonder...

primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
