Iran accused of issuing death threats to election officials who stood up against Trump conspiracies

Iran has incited lethal violence against several US officials who have stood up to Donald Trump over his claims of election fraud, according to the FBI.

Online attacks on now-removed websites and social media accounts against FBI director Christopher Wray and former Department of Homeland Security official Christopher Krebs, and more than a dozen others, surfaced on a website on 9 December titled “Enemies of the People”, a term used repeatedly by President Trump to describe the press.

Home addresses, pictures featuring crosshairs and other personal information were posted on the site, The Washington Post reports. The website falsely accused the people mentioned of committing election fraud to stop Mr Trump from winning. Among the attacked were also swing-state governors and voting system executives.


So, is this Iran hoping to curry favour with Trump, just stirring s**t for the sake of stirring it or hoping to make the GOP/Trump look bad? Some mixture of those?

Why mess with our election?

And why favor Trump rather than Biden?

Trump has been more belligerent towards Iran than Biden's former boss, Obama, was. So you would think that they would view Biden as the lesser of the two American evils.

Maybe Iran just wants to feed into American instability.
