WASHINGTON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - The United States on Friday released a U.S. intelligence assessment sent to more than 100 countries that found Moscow is using spies, social media and Russian state-run media to erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.
“This is a global phenomenon,” said the assessment. “Our information indicates that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, see value in this type of influence operation and perceive it to be effective.”
A senior State Department official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said that Russia was encouraged to intensify its election influence operations by its success in amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Except every Republican lead House investigation this year has said, “Theres nothing there we can charge anyone with, but we’re gonna keep pretending there is so we can creat a fake moral equivilancy!”
Watch some news that doesnt stroke your echo chamber.
With all due respect, perhaps you could revisit Assange/Snowden leaks.
With all respect, please be more specific
The ones about USA propagandizing us. NYT is the only outlet that apologized for it but iirc, said they still do it.
I tend to watch many news sources on the “left” and “right”, one major theme I keep seeing in the “extremes” is a doubt of our government and corruption.
Antiwar vs. pro war
Freedom of speech vs censorship
This you?
If you see everyone that disagrees with you as an enemy, so be it.
I am more of a 3rd party kind of person, but believe whatever comes to your heart.
Your post history betrays you
In what way?
I post on different thinks.
Do I really have to say it? Even your username says it by itself
