Iran and Russia were using voter roll information for targeted disinformation. The DHS claims threatening emails from Proud Boys sent to Democrats were, in fact, from Iran.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2020/10/20/proud-boys-emails-florida/
U.S. officials on Wednesday night accused Iran of targeting American voters with faked but menacing emails and warned that both Iran and Russia had obtained voter data that could be used to endanger the upcoming election.

The emails claimed to be from a pro-Trump group called the Proud Boys, but evidence had mounted that they in fact were the work of another, hidden actor. U.S. officials said that was Iran, a nation that increasingly had clashed with the president in recent years.

Analysts said targeting Democratic voters may have been an effort by Iran to prompt complaints about a far-right group associated with Trump. If it became apparent that the threats were coming from the Trump campaign or his allies, it would reflect poorly on the president himself, said Ariane Tabatabai, Middle East fellow at the Alliance for Securing Democracy.

Iran wants whatever weakens America the most. Yes Trump assassinated their general but long term he inflicts far more damage on America than their general does so that's a chess trade heavily weighted in their favor.

BLM wasnt the one they were saying would go after you. Learn to read. It was mainly the Proud Boys that they were masquerading as.

sonic fan is the only one posting logic in this topic. The threats would look awful on Trump and hurt him, not help. Did y'all not pay attention to the IRan deal? They don't like Trump, they want him out.

They are, yes. They are a fascist, white supremacist, male chauvinist organization. Explicitly so. None of this changes that.
