WASHINGTON – The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued their final four-part joint public service announcement (PSA) today titled "Just So You Know: Foreign Threat Actors Likely to Use a Variety of Tactics to Develop and Spread Disinformation During the 2024 U.S. General Election Cycle." This PSA highlights efforts by foreign actors to spread disinformation in the lead-up to the 2024 U.S. general election with the goal of casting doubt on the integrity of the democratic process and sowing partisan discord. Foreign adversaries are using a variety of sophisticated disinformation campaigns, often leveraging new tools, such as generative artificial intelligence (AI), to craft and spread misleading content.
“As we approach Election Day, it is important to remember that while elections are political, election security is not. Election security is national security. Our foreign adversaries are looking to attack our democratic process to further their own objectives, and we need the help of all Americans in ensuring they are not successful,” said CISA Senior Advisor Cait Conley. “There has been incredible effort across local, state and federal governments to ensure the security and integrity of our nation’s election infrastructure. Americans should be confident that their votes will be counted as cast. They should also know that our foreign adversaries will try to make them believe otherwise. We encourage everyone to remain vigilant, verify the information they consume, and rely on trusted sources like their state and local election officials.”
The PSA highlights specific examples of tactics we have seen used by Russia and Iran during the 2024 election cycle to target all Americans. These include things from mimicking national level media outlets like the Washington Post and Fox News and creating inauthentic news sites posing as legitimate media organizations to using paid influencers to hide their hand. It is important for voters to critically evaluate information sources, particularly as disinformation campaigns evolve to use AI-generated content. Both agencies urge the American public to rely on trusted information from state and local election officials and to verify claims through multiple reliable sources before sharing them on social media or other platforms.

I despise these people.
let me guess... they’ve dispatched ‘candidate look-a-likes’ that may appear at local food establishments...
So, CISA is also enemy and has to be disbanded.
Nope....he dispatched campaign look alikes that bomb fox news interviews with Bret Baier
Any fake pipe bombs involved ?
But no mention that Iran is actuallly trying to KILL Trump.
CIA and FBI are spreading disinformation. Our government and media are so evil. They lie and lie and lie. No reason to argue about something that is likely just propaganda.
The fbi and the cisa lie constantly. They are integrity-free sociopaths. They must be held accountable for their many crimes.
They are the purveyors of government lies. The very idea of a government “truth” office.
Oh boy! Here we go again!!
Was it “51 intelligence officers”?
And the Germans are peddling this...
Imagine sowing partisan discord!
Oh, the humanity.
Surely no one wants foreign powers to goad democrats into thinking that Trump is a nazi fascist KKK threat to democracy who will use the military to lock up gays, blacks, latinos and social media critics and destroy democracy!
Oh wait…that is kamala’s rote campaign speech
So I was coming off a 3 day drunk and drove through a McDonald’s to scarf some food and a couple of large cokes and you wouldn’t believe who the guy who handed me the food looked like, I guess I was still drunker than I thought.
And from France a month ago...
Here’s a flash for the idiots at the Washington Post and New York Times:
Democrats are importing foreign illegals, giving them driver’s licensees and in that process signing ILLEGALS up to vote. To VOTE ILLEGALLY.
MANY ARE CHINESE OF MILITARY AGE.
And to add insult to injury idiots (useful or not) at the DOJ are stopping elected officials from STOPPING THESE illegals from voting. See: Virginia Governor...
THAT’S HOW THE VOTE IS BEING COMPROMISED.
The people of the FBI need to protect the vote for citizens of OUR country and stop worrying about silly propaganda - which has been happening since the founding of the country.
Americans aren’t stupid. We can see propaganda and STOP calling it ‘disinformation’. That’s the term domestic commies use... the correct term is ‘propaganda’.
AKA the Democrat Party.
