Kamala Harris busts Trumps intel chief for talking down to her about countering Russian disinformation attacks

Director of National Intelligence Dan Coates told Senator Kamala Harris that the intelligence community has no written strategy with which to counter foreign disinformation campaigns spread through social media, at Tuesdays hearings held by the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Harris got right to the point, asking Coates, do we have a written strategy for how were going to counter the influence operations that target social media in the United States?
We are fully engaged in that issue, Coates replied, hedging a bit. We have regular communication among the various sectors of the intelligence community. Much of that is shared both verbally and in written form.
So there is a written strategy? Harris responded, looking for confirmation.

(602 posts)There is clearly a conscious effort by multiple individuals in various positions of government to subvert American national security and provide comfort to Russia, not only for them domestically, but also here stateside.
Think though the long game, fast forward to the end goal. Its not destruction of the United States, a kakistocracy isnt going to break a super powers near infinite means of generating wealth and control, no, the end goal is its total subversion and takeover by true Russian players, and not merely through proxies like trump, McConnell, this asshole, and others like them. I mean, why should they, they cant be trusted with a butter knife much less a federal government, so, when the Russian power elite start offloading here, they arent going to pat these assholes on the back and say great job, comrade, theyre probably going to line them up in front of a ditch and shoot every single one of them in the back of the head.
Who needs or wants traitors to their own country once they have served their purpose?
If anyone is in a position of threatened existence, its the republican collaborators, so why the hell are they doing what they are doing???
