The situation with the Russian investigation heated up as Adam Schiff said they won’t be revising their memo. President Trump refused to sign off on the memo saying the memo needed revisiting.
If the memo doesn’t meet Trump’s criteria then it won’t get any further than his desk. Schiff made it clear the memo stays except for slight redaction if any at all.
Any big problem was the concerns regarding Russia meddling in the affairs of America. Intelligence leaders said Russia was interfering in its political process via cyber activity.
The leaders also said that Trump wasn’t showing enough interest in the matter and that was a huge concern.
Security Worry
“This is an election year in our country, and it’s frankly frustrating to me that we haven’t passed legislation to help states strengthen the security of their voting systems,” Sen. Susan Collins said.
Many persons had grave concerns about Russian interference and it was certainly worrying to hear this.
“Persistent and disruptive cyber operations will continue against the United States and our European allies, using elections as opportunities to undermine democracy, sow discord and undermine our values,” said Dan Coats.
However Trump had a different idea about this, which could be ascertained from his statements.
Trump spoke in June 2017 at a press conference and said Russia and many other Countries are involved in cybercrimes.
“As far as hacking, I think it was Russia. But I think we also get hacked by other Countries and other people.”
