The Biden administration on Tuesday announced sanctions on Russian and Iranian organizations over alleged attempts to interfere in the most recent presidential election.
The sanctions specifically address the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Cognitive Design Production Center and an affiliate group of the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate, the Center for Geopolitical Expertise.
“The Governments of Iran and Russia have targeted our election processes and institutions and sought to divide the American people through targeted disinformation campaigns,” acting under secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Bradley T. Smith said in a statement, according to The Hill.
“These actors sought to stoke sociopolitical tensions and undermine our election institutions during the 2024 U.S. general election,” the State Department added.
Russia was reportedly behind false videos that circulated during the election, such as one accusing Vice President Kamala Harris of being involved in a hit and run.
Smith added that the U.S. would remain "vigilant" against threats to democracy.

Only the CIA is allowed to do that!
And who was behind the charges that Trump was receiving Russian intelligence? That Trump accessed a secret server at Alphabank to communicate with Putin? That Don Jr. was sleeping with a sexy Russian spy?
Only our own government is allowed to lie to us!
Wait a minute. They ALL wanted Biden to win.
Isn’t that just lovely. What are they trying to do, help out the low-minded thug Hakeem Jeffries? Sixty years ago he would have been walking around at night with a length of chain in his hands.
You forget China. Joe is owned by China.
Since Biden wasn't on the ballot, much to Biden's dismay, I know you meant to type Kamala. 😋
That's the Democrat Party's bread and butter.
"They're going to put y'all back in chains."
- Senator Joe Biden
No doubt about it!
Kamala was poised to win big, until that video that no one heard of, or saw, was released.
I mean, if I didn't know better, I'd almost think they knew it was real, and not Russian election interference.
I was going to vote for Kamala and then the Russians took my joy away.
Or the FBI or Keir Starmer and the British.
There is no concern, however, about Ukrainian or Romanian Presidential elections being cancelled.
This is crap. We know Sotero’s Overlords are, in part, Iranians and Pootie Poor wanted Kamila. Period.
“.....Russia was behind a number of false videos, including one accusing Vice President Harris of being involved in a hit-and-run.....Iran also devoted more resources to pushing disinformation in Spanish....The intelligence community assessed that while Russia aimed to aid President-elect Trump in winning the election, Iran preferred Harris....Tuesday's sanctions, however, did not target China, another country U.S. intelligence pinpointed as being active in seeking to influence the election.....China expanded its influence efforts by creating fake social media accounts to “push narratives and sow divisiveness,” mirroring efforts deployed by Russia in prior elections. The country was not, however, found to be taking action with the goal of promoting either candidate......”
I will bet that China would have preferred “Cameltoe.”
China Joe is an equal opportunity scumbag, he'll take anybody's money, Iran, Ukrainian Energy Barons, Russian Oligarchs, et. al. The Russians and Iranians must be pi$$ed that he didn't;t stay bought.
