It's become an election year tradition for some dipshiat sheriffs in exurb Virginia to claim to have credible intel that there's a terrorist attack planned to influence the elections.
Which is just them lying to influence the election - some dipshiat local sheriff doesn't have spies in ISIS.
It makes sense. Putin wants to get Trump back in, and Biden is refusing to prove he can be alert at night, so one really easy way to tank him is to make sure something terrible happens at night and then expose how hard it is for him to become alert. All enemies will see a soft target.
I don't understand why people think foreign countries give a shit about our elections. Like, I'm pretty sure China understands more than most that our politicians don't mean shit
