In addition to the presidential contest, Russia, China and Cuba are looking to meddle in congressional races, the officials said.

Foreign adversaries will try to shake Americans’ confidence in the legitimacy of election results in November by giving voice to false claims or spreading their own disinformation about ballot counting, U.S. intelligence officials said Tuesday.

“As we approach Election Day, the intelligence community is also stressing that foreign efforts to undermine America’s democracy won’t end on Nov. 5,” a senior intelligence official told reporters in a virtual briefing.

In its latest assessment of foreign threats to the election, intelligence officials said the main foreign powers seeking to shape the outcome of the vote — Russia, China and Iran — also were focusing on meddling in congressional and state races.

    Is that the plan? Will be a pleasant change from seeing you campaigning for Donald every day. I guess you would be accused of being a Russian bot as soon as you are able to openly support the invasion of Ukraine.

      Instead of wasting your time being mad at leftists for not voting for genocide, you should be paying attention to the election “”“reforms”“” passed by election deniers. Georgia in particular has been turned from a swing state into a guaranteed steal for Trump.

      When the election is stolen by Trump you’d better focus on fighting back against him instead of stupid infighting.

      Politics doesn’t only happen when you vote every few years. Be prepared to actually work with people to stop Trump after the election is over, and that’s going to include people who voted Green or PSL or stayed home.

        I agree it is going to happen and plan to struggle against it, but it absolutely will be easier to fight back if Harris has a large number of votes. That’s why Ukraine genocide and Ohio pogrom lovers are campaigning for Donald every day.

          You’re campaigning for the pogroms happening in the West Bank and the actual genocide happening in Gaza.

          Pound sand, hypocrite.

            No, that shit is repugnant. I don’t want Donald to make it worse, therefore I am selecting the only viable outcome that is not Donald.

            You love that genocide, you love the invasion of Ukraine, and you are eager for pogroms to start up in the US. That’s why you are campaigning for Donald every day.

            “You need to stop infighting with me and prepare to join up against Donald and the absolute fascism of the Repubs. He’s plotting to steal the election. We have to take action!” You cannot be serious that you are going to throw your ballot in the trash and then panic about Donald afterward. Panic so hard that you join your hated enemies, the Dems, against him. This is not a serious position.

              If Harris knew that she was going to lose because of her support for genocide she would stop supporting genocide. It is your fault that Democrats are continuing to support Israel, because you are literally voting for genocide and pogroms. They believe they can win without leftists like me because blue-no-matter-whos like you will vote for them even if Harris killed your whole family.

              We need to purge the Democratic Party of Zionists or else we’re going to go to a bipartisan war with Iran. That’s the best viable outcome. Force Democrats to see that they can not continue to support Israel and force a realignment within the Party structure.

                She will lose if she declares direct opposition because of campaign finance bullshit. Campaign finance bullshit exists because in 2010 a Repub SCOTUS decided that unlimited propaganda is fine. Your solution? “The status quo is despicable. Let’s allow the Repubs to make it worse.” A diligent MAGA campaigner.

                The Dems do not realign to the left if they lose an election. They drift further right looking for people who will actually show up and cast their votes in a way that matters to the outcome. If you wanted progressives writing policies the way to do that is by making it impossible for a MAGA to win anywhere.

                Of course, that’s not your strategy, since you actually embrace the current genocide and hope for more from the far right.

                  Literally antisemitism. “Oh, Democrats are helpless to oppose Israel, they control the government through their financial witchcraft!”

                  The Zionism is coming from inside the house. The problem are US Zionists and they’re the ones we need to defeat.

                  And we can beat them, if you would stop fucking voting for their apartheid, pogroms, and genocide. Do you listen to the news? Doesn’t it make you want to die? I know I do.

                    It is very telling that you describe a massive PAC supporting a state as, since you say “antisemitism,” explicitly Jewish financial witchcraft. You think millions of dollars pouring into propaganda has no effect on the 70+ million people you need to convince to switch their votes from Dem to other so that we end up with neither Dem nor MAGA in office? Be serious.

                    We cannot beat the system by throwing our votes in the trash. If it were unviable to end up with MAGAs in office, we would have better options. If the majority of Americans that are opposed to this shit would actually reliably vote for a viable candidate every election, we would be arguing over who will implement which progressive policies instead of which candidate will do less genocide.

                    I’d rather have that world, but unfortunately you and many other MAGAs love the genocide and crave more of it.
