According2Sam #29

We have been told that Russia initiated a multipronged attack on America in the 2016 general election. We have been told they hacked the DNC, John Podesta, and other high ranking Democrats, and then published damaging information through DCLeaks and Guccifer 2.0. They also secretly passed off the damaging information to WikiLeaks where it was also published at opportune times during the campaign. We are told they used media arms that operate legally in the United States, such as Spudnik International and Russia Today (RT) to sow discord in America and cause Americans to lose trust in democracy and democratic institutions. However, it was their activity on social media, particularly on Facebook, that Deputy DCI Mike Morell equated to the intelligence failures that led to 9/11. What was the extent of this activity on Facebook, and was it really enough to have a impact on the election? Was it really even Russia that was responsible, and how do we know it was Russia, as we are told? Join the conversation and get answers to these questions and more on According2Sam episode #29.
