Texas Republican Rep. Will Hurd, a former CIA operative, is clanging an alarm to his colleagues: President Donald Trump is being manipulated by Vladimir Putin.
Vladimir Putin, the man Trump praised for his leadership, has blocked his most formidable challenger from running in Russia's 2018 election. WaPo Moscow Bureau Chief David Filipov says talk about Putin's challengers is being called meddling. Evelyn Farkas joins.
No one really expected President Donald Trump, who benefited from Russia’s 2016 election interference, to counter that hostile regime’s active measures: Russia wanted him to win, and when they hacked, he invited them to hack more.
Russian interference with American politics did not stop after the election, and prominent Republicans – including House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. Marco Rubio – have been targeted by coordinated social media attacks, cybersecurity experts told a Senate panel Thursday.
Former acting CIA director Michael Morell says the agency missed the meddling until it was too late.
