Politico: Intelligence community creating hub to gird against foreign influence
The center will be a clearinghouse for intelligence related to malign influence from multiple government agencies and provide assessments and warning of such activities.
The nation’s top spy agency has begun work to establish a hub to combat hostile foreign meddling in U.S. affairs, following multiple assessments that Russia and other countries have sought to sway elections and sow chaos among the American people.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence will create the Foreign Malign Influence Center “in light of evolving threats and in support of growing policy and congressional requirements,” an agency spokesperson said Monday in a statement to POLITICO.

WNU Editor: So a new bureaucracy is going to be set up to provide assessments and warnings of foreign meddling?!?!?!?
Makes me wonder on what the US intelligence community has been doing for the past few decades that they must now have this new department to confront something that has been ongoing for as long as I can remember.
It is clunky to set up domestic and international spying on American citizens across multipole agencies., This new agency is meant to streamline the effort for any new Democrat administration. Brennan got caught. This is meant to go after chat rooms like Louis Lerner went after Tea Party Groups. It is a scorched earth tactic. They mean burn out the grass roots all the way up to sabotaging, sidelining or taking out any successfully non-Democrat candidate.
ReplyDeleteA Republican president should one win, could shit down such an office., which would be best. Merely replacing a few people at the top wont work. Democrats will come in and like firing all the US attourneys would fire anyone they could and replace them with apparatchiks.
This is 1984.
