The US is preparing to accuse Russia of disinformation campaigns targeting the presidential election
The Biden administration is preparing to accuse Russia of disinformation campaigns targeting the presidential election. That’s according to three people familiar with the upcoming announcement Wednesday from the Justice Department. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to discuss the matter publicly before the announcement. Intelligence agencies have previously accused of Russia of using disinformation to try to interfere in the election. But the announcement expected from Attorney General Merrick Garland is expected to show the depth of U.S. concerns and signal legal actions against those suspected of being involved.
