U.S. intelligence officials are preparing to disclose more information to the public about foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election, top senators said today
Democrats have been openly pressuring the Trump administration to be more specific about Russia’s interference operation, which lawmakers say is more sophisticated than it was in 2016. Even though many Democrats said they were satisfied with what they heard on Monday, it wasn’t enough to placate those who have been pushing the hardest for additional public disclosures.
Evanina eventually acknowledged that Russia is again trying to boost President Donald Trump and damage Biden, according to sources who attended the briefing, and he said Ratcliffe would reveal more details at the annual congressional hearings on worldwide national security threats. Johnson, who chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, has vehemently denied those charges and has accused Democrats of promoting their own disinformation campaign aimed at tarring him and his investigations.
Pompeo declined to answer, and Murphy has highlighted the exchange to underscore the Trump administration’s reluctance to be more specific about efforts by foreigners to denigrate Biden. Warner on Monday said the intelligence community was “getting better” when it comes to sharing that information.
