Fake Proud Boys Email Threats - Proof of More Foreign Interference in our Elections

1. Foreign interference in our 2020 elections is undeniable.
2. We’ll never know if it helps/hurts either candidate, so each candidate has nothing to lose by calling it out
3. It should infuriate both sides equally, and should not be tolerated by our government.

Within hours of the video being circulated this week, which purported to come from a American far-right group known as The Proud Boys, intelligence officials and major email platform providers, such as Alphabet Inc's GOOGL.O Google and Microsoft Corp MSFT.O, began closely analyzing computer code that appeared in the hackers' video.

While the emails, which demanded that voters change their party affiliation to the Republican Party and vote for President Donald Trump or “we will come after you,” appeared to come from an official-looking Proud Boys email address, the address was inauthentic, security analysts said. The Proud Boys denied they were behind the messages.

Make no mistake about it, foreign countries are continuing to interfere in our elections as they did in 2016. Neither the Republicans or the Democrats are in on it, but we should all unite against it.
