Morning Joe if you are reading this I want u 2 know that this site DU was hacked on election DAY2016

Why did this happen? Did it happen to other sites!

1. Freaking mystery. It galls me!

[Madam45for2923]

2. I will never forget this crap.

3. I have to agree that this should get more attention and investigation...

I realize it is Skinner's decision to make as to how much he wants to pursue, discuss about the matter. However, IF this was part of a larger effort to shut down Dem/Progressive voices and information prior to and following the election, in light of what happened with social media and the Russians, this does need to be explored IMO.

4. Yes! I believe 99.999999% that is exactly what happened!

5. I'll NEVER forget that hack. NEVER.

I was trying to understand, I was trying not to cry.
I was frightened beyond belief and trying not to panic realizing what it all could mean.

Curious...may I ask why you're directing your questions to 'Morning Joe'? Thanks.

6. Someone posted an OP thinking Joe was reading a DU post so I ran to post my OP just in case.

Why not, right?

7. BTW I wrote to Rachel Maddow and Norman Goldman about this a few weeks ago,

Thinking of writing to others in the near future.

9. I dont think MJ reads DU

someone misrepresented the "something is happening here" post as originating from DU when it was from another source

[Madam45for2923]

10. Ah ok! I thought I'd give it a try just in case.

[Ilsa]

11. I feel certain it was designed

to keep DUers from communicating with one another and finding interference in the election on election day. I hope the FBI, if the owners wish, find the culprits.

[Madam45for2923]

12. Yep, it is too coincidental and convenient that we were out of commission here.

[bdamomma]

13. oh god that was terrible

I couldn't get in at all and that stupid thing kept on coming up. I'm usually not superstitious but I took it as a omen.

On a night that we could have been altogether posting our comments we were hijacked and hacked.

[PunksMom]

14. You know...

It took me a long time to come back here. That just freaked me out, & I thought immediately, we were hacked by something or someone. When this Russian hacking scheme came to the forefront, I felt in my gut, it was them.
