In this instance, the Russian hackers set up fake websites that mimicked sign-in pages of Burisma subsidiaries, and have been blasting Burisma employees with emails meant to look like they are coming from inside the company.

Thanks to the MS Caucus of Black Local Elected Officials for having me. The importance that local elected officials represent cannot be emphasized enough. They exist at the juncture where rubber meets the road, addressing needs of constituents regardless of party affiliation.
The photos and video coming out of Mississippi prisons are really wild. After five killings in a week—and evidence of flooded cells, black mold, and collapsed ceilings—a congressman is calling for a federal investigation https://t.co/wVQf1aZd9W
Speaker Pelosi announced today that she'd be transmitting the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate. Catch up with @ImportantMeagan in the newest episode of Impeachment Daily to hear about what that means and what comes next.
It is my duty to ensure the safety and well-being of all my constituents. State politicians must be held accountable for refusing to address the widespread violence and unsanitary conditions involving inmates. #DontForgetParchman
Reminder: Hundreds of bills about voter registration, background checks for firearm sales, domestic violence, climate change, minimum wage increases and other issues sit on Mitch McConnell's desk. #FlipTheSenate
On Monday, an Iranian friend of mine from college who lives in the US uploaded a photo of himself with his mom smiling together.
It was the 1st time he'd been able to go home in 10 years (he told me in 2017 he was worried Trump's travel ban would block him) & see his family. 1/
Tomorrow, I will be requesting that the U.S. Attorney General launch an investigation into the ongoing failures in safety, security, health, and environmental standards within the Mississippi Department of Corrections. This is unacceptable.
This situation will evolve, but right now the most important thing every MoC can do is to clearly state that they condemn this strike & are opposed to war with Iran. Call your MoC and tell them to do everything in their power to rein in Trump. https://t.co/MDLzZlrDlB
It is appalling that there have been 5 lives taken this week due to what is being described as “disturbances.” This is a crisis that must be quickly addressed. I offer my condolences to the families of the 5 men. We should all be concerned when any life is lost.
The idea that this strike will *prevent* future attacks on American people and interests around the world is absolutely bonkers. It will not. If anything, that risk just went up.
Let's get a few things straight:
1. This was an insane move by Trump.
2. No one is remotely prepared for this kind of escalation with Iran.
3. Trump has unilaterally taken action that will result in war, possibly to distract from being impeached.
Yesterday, cities in 21 states increased their minimum wage. Guess who wasn’t one of them?
That’s why I will fight for a higher minimum wage. #MSSen

Issues like democracy reform and immigration are going to set the tone of the general election and the first term of whoever wins next November. That’s why we released presidential scorecards measuring where the candidates stand on this issue. https://t.co/LdSpnjYmpY
Trump’s tariffs killed jobs, increased prices, and hurt our economy.
As former Secretary of Agriculture, I’m the best person in this race to fight back against Trump’s dangerous trade policies. Mississippi’s farmers and workers deserve better.
