Default House members reportedly told Russia interfering in 2020 election

House members reportedly told Russia interfering in 2020 election
House members were reportedly warned by intelligence officials last week that Russia is interfering in the 2020 campaign to try to get Trump reelected, mirroring the country’s meddling in the 2016 race.

The New York Times reports:

The day after the Feb. 13 briefing to lawmakers, Mr. Trump berated Joseph Maguire, the outgoing acting director of national intelligence, for allowing it to take place, people familiar with the exchange said. Mr. Trump cited the presence in the briefing of Representative Adam B. Schiff, the California Democrat who led the impeachment proceedings against him, as a particular irritant.

During the briefing to the House Intelligence Committee, Mr. Trump’s allies challenged the conclusions, arguing that Mr. Trump has been tough on Russia and strengthened European security. Some intelligence officials viewed the briefing as a tactical error, saying that had the official who delivered the conclusion spoken less pointedly or left it out, they would have avoided angering the Republicans.

That intelligence official, Shelby Pierson, is an aide to Mr. Maguire who has a reputation of delivering intelligence in somewhat blunt terms. The president announced on Wednesday that he was replacing Mr. Maguire with Richard Grenell, the ambassador to Germany and long an aggressively vocal Trump supporter.

The Washington Post reported earlier today about the confrontation between Trump and Maguire, but the content of the intelligence briefing was not previously known.

Trump has repeatedly pushed back against the intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 race to help him defeat Hillary Clinton.

During the impeachment inquiry and trial, some of the president’s allies tried to peddle the baseless conspiracy theory that it was actually Ukraine who meddled in the 2016 race.

That claim was dismissed by Fiona Hill, the White House’s former top Russia expert, as a “fictional narrative” pushed by Vladimir Putin’s government.

Here we go again.
How low has America fallen.
Putin's bitch is doing his bidding.

At this point, Trump Supporters are no different to anti-vaxxers and flat earthers. All three groups are disconnected from reality and try to override facts that don't support their bull**** with lies and propoganda.

This was a report by intelligence services.

I mean I understand his far right supporters are not fazed. Even they know the orange one is too stupid so he needs vlad in charge. Ok, vlad is not in the same league as adolf but beggars can't be chooses.
