Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly said on Tuesday he would not seek to reverse a decision made in the Obama administration's final days to designate U.S. election systems as critical infrastructure, despite concerns from some conservative states that the change amounted to a federal takeover.
"I believe we should help all of the states ... to make sure that their systems are protected in future elections," Kelly told a congressional panel in response to a question from Democratic U.S. Representative Cedric Richmond.
"I would argue that, yes, we should keep that in place."
In January, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced it had determined state election systems should be considered critical infrastructure by the federal government. The decision followed a 2016 presidential campaign marred by cyber attacks that U.S. intelligence agencies concluded were carried out by Russia in order to help now-President Donald Trump win.
U.S. officials determined hackers targeted more than 20 states' voter registration systems during the election but that there was no evidence that tallies were altered when ballots were cast on Nov. 8.
>a doctor with access to fast acting and painlessly killing medicine kills himself by shooting himself in the chest

Right... because no one has ever committed suicide by shooting themselves in the chest. www.liveleak.com/view?i=438_1462913827

Tyler Cook
Where is the evidence of these 'cyber attacks'?
Jason Robinson
you're not allowed to see them the media will report on them if they qualify as news tho
Ethan Green
Feds search office for no reason and found him dead by a double headshot suicide.
All is good mate.
Joseph Sanders
lolz
Jack Powell
But what is causing the increase in autism then if it's not vaccines?
Kayden Bennett
Maybe it's all those other drugs and shit being forced down our throats.
>(((critics))) called this a convoluted conspiracy >Sup Forums was right again
Brody Wood
Maybe the diagnosis are becoming more inaccurate as people are being pushed into medical positions without the relevant skills due to having brown skin.
Jayden Jenkins
>Found dead in a river >Suicide
Jonathan Morris
>Right... because no one has ever committed suicide by shooting themselves in the chest. Isn't it odd a doctor does it? A good education should result in a more efficient method.
Jose Cooper

>shoot self in chest and fall into cold ass river while your lungs fill with blood and you're drowning at the same time. Probably a very distressing death. what tells me this didnt fucking happen?
Wyatt Reyes
>Dead in a river >Gunshot wound to chest >Doctor
hmmmm...
Sebastian Howard
maybe if I wanted to have an open casket funeral, but this guy """""shot himself""""" then """""jumped""""" into a river
Christopher Reed
Has plebbit got wind of this, yet?
Jaxon Williams
Guns are one of the most reliable ways to kill yourself. Also a shot to the heart is painless death that leaves the face intact for a funeral.
William Rivera
Maybe because they keep changing the definition of the diagnosis and only recently started looking for it.
Levi Cooper
Doesn't explain why he hurled himself into the river.
Or the as-of-yet unexplained FDA visit.
Gabriel Carter
The symptoms are broadening and people are waiting to have kids.
Nolan Flores
This is what, the 20th doctor who studied vaccines who suicided in the past year?
Ryder Young
We need a list.
Oliver Russell
A shot to the heart would be a quick death. It is strange that a man who has access to shit that would cause a quick painless death wouldn't go that rout. Regardless, Sup Forums would question it .
>the man killed himself by hitting himself in the back with a 2x4 with nails sticking out
Brody Myers
Clearly we need more vaccines, because without autism we would have no pepe or president trump.
James Sanchez
No, he shot himself in his garage with his family home 9 times in the back of his head with a nail gun for rough framing.
Dominic Parker
"suicide"
Caleb Gray
people having kids older than 30 is more common
Evan Cox
while this is certainly classic fodder for conspiracy theories, big pharma whacks whistleblowing researcher It is not unbelievable to kill oneself by shooting yourself in the heart.
I know because I had a co-worker do this.
Turned out he had cancer and chose to kill himself at our office in his car in the parking lot before anyone arrived in the morning.
His gf suggested he liked us and regarded us as his friends and just couldn't take the idea of going through the agony of cancer.
He put a pistol to his chest and shot.
Gavin Lee
google exit bag.
Jose Martinez
I heard he fell down an elevator shaft and landed on a bunch of bullets.
Kayden Morris
shooting yourself is a statement. You want people to clean up the mess you want people to deal with you.
Not surprisingly people put a lot of their repressed emotions into the way they kill themselves.
Daniel Ortiz
I'm new to this autism shit, what are the scientific proofs for, and what are against ?
Adrian Gray
Anybody got that article where the DHS themselves hacked some voter registries?
