Sen. Warner: U.S. Needs ‘To Be On Guard’ Against Possible Russian Cyberattacks

With Ukraine’s borders increasingly surrounded by Russian forces, Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss the threat of a Russian invasion and the possibility of cyber-warfare. “If they launched a cyber attack with full force before a kinetic invasion, it knows no geographic boundaries,” says Warner. “The chances of that hitting American companies, maybe not targeting American companies, but hitting American companies, means we need to be on guard.”

Sen. Warner: U.S. Needs ‘To Be On Guard’ Against Possible Russian Cyberattacks

The free world is blessed having Dynamite Joe as our world leader and not the puppet of comrade Poothin

[michaelbackovski]

Sen. Warner: Thank you for your candid and informative update on the situation in Ukraine. May God Bless Ukraine!

Trump has to be sweating the outcome of Putin's aggression. It wasn't long ago Trump treated Putin like a rock star. No problem at all with Russian bounties on American soldiers.

[kellysouter]

I find it hard to believe the rest of the world can't do a Cyber attack back on them.

[lucashvacdenver]

Looks like we will be finding out the extent of all the American Intelligence Trump gave to Russia.

Putin probably would have been a more decent human being if he wasn't so short and weird looking.
LONG LIVE UKRAINE!!! 🇺🇦 🇺🇲

Trivia question: "Who goes to Moscow on the 4th of July to celebrate America's Day of Independence?

Republicans, that's who.

In 2018, eight republican lawmakers celebrated the 4th of July inMoscow: Senator Richard C. Shelby of Alabama, who led the delegation, along with Senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, John Neely Kennedy of Louisiana, Steve Daines of Montana, North Dakota’s John Hoeven, Jerry Moran of Kansas, South Dakota’s John Thune, and Rep. Kay Granger of Texas. The dubious reason they gave for the trip was “engagement." 

The group met with a number of RussianAgents, and keyRussian officials, including foreign minister and former RussianAmbassador to the US, the two who 14 months earlier were photographed by the RussianPress yukking it up with Trump in the Oval Office, the day after Trump fired Comey for daring to do his job of investigatingRussian interference in our elections. To this day, we have no way of knowing what was discussed during their visit toMoscow, as the media was barred from the closed-door meetings, much to the delight of the GloatingRussians.

Sanction the Russian Oligarchs!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇦

[miguelalvarado]

I always hear about the US being cyber attacked by the Russians and the Chinese. Do we ever do the same?

[GRJ-uzkf]

So, we're supposed to be wary of Trump's best pal? Putin was Trump's model leader.

[sjay]

It is so devastatingly sad that people like Putin exist in this world.

[grayfox]

Why is CNN, CBS, NBC & MSNBC not talking about the Durham Report???

[alanbailey]

At times like this we need Bernie Sanders.

[lenastropestrope]

According to the latest on the Durham report, Jake Sullivan knows plenty about cyber attacks and spying.

[eric.lerickson]

Just seen video of fences still up around the capital and the white house.

[mariaaponte]

Thats very true we can get a Cyber attack.

[charlesmartin]

That map defines the word 'surrounded.' Good luck to the Ukrainians.

"these bigly documents won't flush bing bing bong bing" - Donald j tRump 🥴🥴🥴

[jamescarter]

Va. Senators Warner and Kane should be Democrats for the White House in 2024.

I hope someone is keeping an eye on the Russian satellite missile killer rockets they tested successfully last year when they shot one of their satellites . This would wipe out all the forces communication.
