Raise your hand if you’re surprised.
Today the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report detailing ‘extensive’ influence operations by Russia in the Presidential election, ‘”denigrating” President Joe Biden and “supporting” former President Donald Trump, primarily with a ‘massive disinformation push’ that — as we know — successfully targeted Trump’s allies and supporters.
And as we all know now, Trump enthusiastically supported the Russian disinformation campaign against Biden and promoted their conspiracy theories even though he knew they came from a foreign government.
The report concluded that Russian President Vladimir Putin was “aware of and probably directed” the operation to hurt Biden — and give Trump a boost, much like he did in the 2016 election.
