#BREAKING: #Russia is actively working to denigrate @JoeBiden’s campaign, including by spreading #disinformation thru pro-Russia Ukrainian Derkach, assesses US intel. NEW @ODNIgov statement: dni.gov/index.php/news… #Election2020 
ODNI: “We assess that Russia is using a range of measures to primarily denigrate…Biden and what it sees as an anti-Russia ‘establishment’… Kremlin-linked actors are also seeking to boost President Trump’s candidacy on social media and Russian television.”
“foreign states will continue to use covert and overt influence measures in their attempts to sway U.S. voters’ preferences and perspectives, shift U.S. policies, increase discord in the United States, and undermine the American people’s confidence in our democratic process.…”
🚨ODNI: Russia may also seek to compromise election infrastructure to
—interfere w/ voting process
—steal sensitive data
—call into question validity of elex results
🚨🚨“However it would be difficult for adversaries to interfere with or manipulate voting results AT SCALE🚨🚨

ODNI alert is alarming in at least 3 ways:
1) Russia's also trying to compromise election infrastructure—ie mess w/ RESULTS, VOTE TALLIES
2) US CONCEDES vote count manipulation may happen,
3) Manipulating results "at scale" may be hard for adversaries, but easier for Americans.
