Ukrainian gas firm Burisma hacked by Russians in all-too-familiar phishing scheme, cybersecurity company finds.

's overtures to Ukraine's leader in July to investigate the Bidens prompted Congress' impeachment probe.Hunter Biden speaks with ABC's Amy Robach in October 2019.The Russians' phishing campaign described by Area 1 mirrors the Kremlin's efforts to penetrate Democrats leading up to the 2016 presidential election, when Russians successfully penetrated the email account of Hillary Clinton campaign adviser John Podesta through similar means. Russia has denied hacking into U.S.

"This proves that both Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin understand the true stakes of this election," Bates said."Joe Biden is running to bring our country together and restore American leadership in the world -- repairing the damage Donald Trump has done to our national security and alliances. Donald Trump tried to coerce Ukraine into lying about Joe Biden and a major bipartisan, international anti-corruption victory because he recognized that he can't beat the Vice President.

On Sunday,"This Week" host George Stephanopoulos questioned national security adviser Robert O'Brien about the administration's preparedness for Russian meddling in the 2016 election. President Vladimir Putin speaks at a meeting with officers of Russia's military intelligence, GRU in Moscow, Friday, Nov. 2, 2018.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂she’s rediculous!

wxyzalicia Pelosi is a Crazy Old, Old worn out woman that just makes up as she goes on. She needs to go to a retirement facility for Mentally Handicapped.

Nancy's new narrative. This is cover for Democratic misdeeds that may come out during impeachment. ABC will carry out her wishes.

Oh yee two that speaketh with forked tongue! Schumer is the other! But the best is Schitt, oh sorry, Schiff!

Misrepresentation from the house of Congress is the major problem at hand. These so called politicians have shredded the constitution so much in the past 3 years,it wouldn't make a good bed for a hamster. Pelosi will never know how I vote or how I decide on a candidate.

abc3340 Because all you put out is fake nes. And what about hunter Biden working for that company . We are still waiting for your story on that

This report falls under “things that never happened”

My guess is that this is a bs story just as they pass the articles to the senate. This is desperate and sad.

I was told the existence of wrongdoing at Burisma was a debunked conspiracy theory.

I’m curious to know why Pelosi thinks that the hacking is for the benefit of Trump’s re-election. We’ve been told there’s nothing improper so what is she thinking will come out? If there’s nothing, there’s nothing to be afraid of.

Why do the Bidens have to worry? Does she know something we don't?

The reality is Nancy & Chuck are interfering with our election process by trying to push thru a scam impeachment in order to weaken Trump. The face of the Dem Party.

It’s a gas firm in the Ukraine? I guess the DNC DO HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE!!!

How is the hacking of a Ukrainian has company that the democrats claim that the connection to Biden has been debunked affect 🇺🇸 elections? If their is nothing to find then how could it hurt Biden? Sounds like a matter for Ukrainian law enforcement.

Lie!!

Not sure how a Ukrainian gas company has any influence on our elections...oh yeah that’s right! The democrat front runner used his vice presidential position to illegally place his son in that company.

How does Russia hacking a gas firm in Ukraine have ANYTHING to do with our elections? Unless the President was correct about the Bidens being corrupt... Are the Dems worried their dirty laundry will see the light of day?

You don't know exactly why they hacked the firm. SpeakerPelosi conducting RedHerring operations. 🙄🙄🙄

Oh please... just give it up already. Blaming everything on Russia is really getting old. Just stop. The DNC is the biggest to interfere anyway. Do they think they will swing votes their way - NEVER - and I used to be a dem supporter :(

Don't forget... MoscowMitch blocked bi-partisan bills aimed at preventing cyberattacks and foreign meddling into our elections. Republican's can't win elections without playing dirty. gerrymandering VoterSuppression insistingonvulnerablevotingmachines voterdatapurges

Nervous much Nancy? Why would we need to know when they hack a Ukrainian gas firm? Oh ok...............judgement is coming.

Still delusional

The media told us that Biden's Ukraine scandal was flase and debunked long ago, so what is there to be worried about?

HAVE ANOTHER DRINK NANCY!!!

How does this interfere with us elections unless there is something to find. Who are you trying to protect.

hey you NancyPelosiFakeNews

Nov 3, 20/20: Russia Vs America...we’ll see whoprevails

Ha ha Nervous Nancy

What we going to do about it

We need to keep the truth hidden if it harms a Democrat, and spread rumors only about Trump

to benefit the President huh? Nancy is so full of Crap its sick! She cant face the truth that half of America Hates her guts and votes for Trump

Trump is down with OPP! LockHimUp

Would we know if they planted something for others to find?

What does Russia hacking Ukraine have to do with the President winning an election you have said for the last 6 months nothing illegal happened in Ukraine so why are you so scared

Urgent?

How is hacking Ukraine interfering with our elections? Unless there is something to find? And if there is, shouldn’t it be exposed before ppl vote for the most powerful person in the world?

ABC GET A NET....

“Russia, Russia Russia” — she’s already trying to excuse her party’s 2020 losses and they haven’t even happened yet.

SHE IS A WACK JOB.. TOMORROW SHE FINALLY IS BRINGING UP THE VOTE TO MOVE IT TO THE SENATE? LOL

why didn't Obama secure our elections?

Currently, the greatest threat to fair & honest elections in 2020 is from the left within our own country. If Russia can tamper with voting machines the people who designed those machines can tamper with the count far more easily.

Russians try everyone's patience they lie , steal ,😡👿☹️ That's right Puttin and Trump sre blood brothers blood in blood out😂😏☹️👁️😡👿☹️

Hacked by a phishing scheme? Doubt it. If they were, how amateur. Sounds like Dems are lining up the excuses already.

And, yet, no reporting on the hacking of our election - not even an investigative report. There is no point in anyone even running anymore - the hackers choose who is elected.

FakeNews

Former VP Biden’s Hunter Biden made a $50K monthly salary from 2014-18 as a Burisma director, with a $34 million private equity deal that is still alive & well today. Hunter is a billionaire & tell his daddy that he hasn’t told him. NAIVE! Andrew Weissmann commits conspiracy.

I wonder what they planted? 🤨

LOL Area 1 Security, an Anti-Phishing Security company says Burisma was hacked Via phishing. Were they hired before or after the hack? If before, I would be looking for another Security company.

Vladi is starting to worry that his boy might not win the election.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just Russia helping Trump cheat again. Bernie is disparaging Warren. You know....2016 all over again.

Would the Security company be Crowdstrike? Cause Crowstrike, Burisma, and the Atlantic Council have allot to lose right about now. This is why the news outlets are screaming Those Russians!

Prepare for an onslaught of Russian propaganda to be pushed by Fox, Trump and his GOP lackeys. Don't fall for it, ABC,

If they've got nothing to hide, they've got nothing to worry about.

why would they not have changed their hacking method yet? To resemble somebody else's.

Demo-rat whistleblower 🤪

Biden Biden Biden ... trying to get all their dirt before they have to testify in the Senate Trial ... popcorn please !

*The Bears are Back in Town*
