In September, U.S. intelligence officials warned that because of the pandemic, it might take a few days for the results of the presidential election to emerge - and that foreign adversaries might exploit the delay to spread false information intended to undermine confidence in the vote.
But instead of doing that, American officials and private experts say, the Russians and other foreign influencers have appeared content to report on the claims - made with no evidence - by President Trump and his allies that the election is being “stolen” from them.
“Nothing that Russia or Iran or China could say is anywhere near as wild as what the president is saying,” said Clint Watts, a former FBI agent who tracks foreign disinformation. “We cannot say this time that Russia, Iran or China interfered in a significant way. They don’t need to write fake news this time--we’re making plenty of fake news of our own.”
As NBC News and other major news organizations have reported, no evidence of election fraud has emerged as a handful of contested states count the remaining ballots, most of which were sent by mail. But Trump and his allies have continued to claim otherwise.
Russian propaganda organs have reported extensively on claims of fraud, but have not gone out of their way to amplify them, he said.
“What we’ve seen for the most part out of Russian right now is that the U.S. is a mess, it’s in chaos, democracy is falling apart,” Shafer said.

His name: Chad.
Says the Stalinist media in Amerika.
brought to you by the people who pushed the russian collusion hoax for three years...
Now the deluge from the media will come.
And then weak Rs asking Trump to concede.
A lot of talk about the first non peaceful transfer of power
blah ####ing blah blah
They Stole an Election to decide the next POTUS.
This wasn’t some local swindle for councilman.
5 states or more conspired, with the help of msm and possibly outside agents and parts of the US government, to attempt a coup.
FB and Twitter are shutting anyone down who dissents.
As I said, the MSM is already in full swing.
If anyone here says the answer is to make changes over the next four years (one absurd comment was to not buy food at liberal restaurants), DONT SAY IT.
There is no 4 years.
We don’t have 4 years under biden. Or Harris.
The time is Now.
Whatever it takes.
Voter fraud is not caused by Russian misinformation.
Voter fraud is not caused by whatever Trump says.
Voter fraud is caused by democrats. Democrats are the ones with the misinformation and the voter fraud.
The usual spam from the usual syndicator
NBC can see Russia from their windows. Chuckle.
Russia doesn’t need to interfere in US elections. NBC and the fake news media and big tech are doing it for them.
Yes, we approaching the place where the only way to get back freedom will be at velocity above 2250fps.
“As NBC News and other major news organizations have reported, no evidence of election fraud has emerged as a handful of contested states count the remaining ballots, most of which were sent by mail. But Trump and his allies have continued to claim otherwise.”
Hitler and Stalin would have been proud to have the 21st century American media as their disinformation/propaganda arm.
CIA asset Ken Dilanian weighs in...
Pretty Funny coming from a Presstitute Owned and Operated by the Communist Chinese Party
If you tell a lie big enough and long enough people believe it.
where’s that pic...of the guy...”not this shit again” meme!!
please stop posting this kind of crap.....
Apparently Project Mockingbird is alive and thriving.
Ken Dilanian is NBC’s national security and intelligence correspondent which means he has no doubt shared countless lies and misinformation in his career. At times, I wonder how someone like that lives with himself. Probably lots of alcohol.
To start with, right away. Russians do not spread misinformation, they spread DISINFORMATION. And the claim that Team Trump is behind the misinformation, is just a part of the classic strategy of Democrat/liberal projection, in which the rival is accused of employing exactly the same methods, whether there is any basis in fact or not.
Joe Biden brags about having “the most extensive and inclusive VOTER FRAUD organization” in history.
Maybe, in a moment of lucidity, Joe spoke a very deep truth. The fraud certainly is both extensive and inclusive.
Joe just being Joe? Not always.
The Russians have no need to spread misinformation. The Democrat House, and the media are doing it for them (Remember Russiagate?)
