Russia Leading 'Drumbeat' of Disinformation Ahead of US Presidential Election

Jeff Seldin

   FBI Director Christopher Wray told lawmakers Thursday that Russia is
   not letting up in its efforts to sway the outcome of the November
   presidential election, backing earlier assessments from U.S.
   counterintelligence officials that Moscow's main goal is to damage the
   campaign of Democratic candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden.

   Wray, testifying before the House Homeland Security Committee,
   described the Kremlin's influence operations as "very, very active" on
   social media, on its own state-run media and through various proxies.
