"FBI Director Chris Wray on Thursday told Congress the bureau has seen 'very active efforts by the Russians to influence our elections in 2020,' primarily to 'denigrate Vice President Biden and what the Russians see as kind of an anti-Russian establishment.' It confirms previous previous statements from various intelligence officials about Russia's interference activities, which continue with less than 50 days until the election."
"The efforts have been through proxies on social media and have aimed to 'sow divisiveness and discord,' Wray. Unlike in 2106, the Russians have not targeted election infrastructure, according to Wray. The big picture: Wray said that his biggest concern related to election security is the "steady drumbeat of misinformation and sort of amplification of smaller cyber intrusions" that could sow distrust in the results of the election" – Axios.
