Senate intelligence report warns of repeat of Russian election interference

CNN  

CNN — A Senate Intelligence Committee report detailing how Russia’s 2016 election interference was encouraged by President Donald Trump and his campaign raises the stakes for the current campaign at a time when Trump is openly amplifying Russian disinformation. “Russia is actively interfering again in the 2020 US election to assist Donald Trump, and some of the President’s associates are amplifying those efforts.” Wyden also said that redacted information in the report that has not yet been released to the public is “directly relevant to Russia’s interference in the 2020 election.” But the Trump campaign and some Republicans responded to the report with a backward-looking critique and insistence there was “no collusion,” rather than questioning how American politics may still be vulnerable to foreign disinformation and interference in 2020. “The Committee observed numerous Russian-government actors from late 2016 until at least January 2020 consistently spreading overlapping false narratives which sought to discredit investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. elections and spread false information about the events of 2016,” the report said. What’s next The 15-member Intelligence Committee used its report Tuesday to call for legislative, law enforcement and cultural changes in the nation’s approach to national security, especially related to election interference.
