Mueller: Russians entered U.S. to plot election meddling

Special counsel Robert Mueller charged 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities on Friday with an illegal "information warfare" scheme to disrupt the 2016 presidential election and assist the candidacy of President Donald Trump.

The dramatic indictment reveals a bold covert effort that went beyond the previously-known use of "fake news" and social media misdirection to divide American voters and harm Trump's Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.

It charges that as early as 2014, Russian nationals physically entered the U.S., and, hiding their true identities, gathered intelligence, organized political rallies — and even paid Americans to assist their political sabotage. The Russians allegedly paid one American in Florida to dress up as Hillary Clinton in a prison uniform and hired another to build a cage to "imprison" the Clinton impersonator at a Florida rally.

I liked how Vindman said it was the consensus of the intelligence community that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election.
