House Speaker Nancy Pelosi weighs in on an intelligence report on Russia, China and the U.S. presidential election, saying Moscow is 'actively 24/7 interfering' while the Chinese are 'not really getting involved.'

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of Calif., center, accompanied by Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer of N.Y., left, speak to reporters following a meeting with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows as they continue to negotiate a coronavirus relief package on Capitol Hill in Washington, Friday, Aug. 7, 2020.

“They’re not equivalent,” said Pelosi, D-Calif. “Russia is actively 24/7 interfering in our election. They did so in 2016, and they are doing so now.” She urged intelligence agencies to “put more information out there” on the specific nature of the threats.said Russia was already using a “range of measures” to undercut Trump’s Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, and promote Trump with misinformation on social media.

Trump’s national security adviser, Robert O’Brien, said Sunday that the U.S. is taking any threat to U.S. elections seriously. He said that China has engaged in cyberattacks and phishing “with respect to our election infrastructure.” Pelosi and other congressional Democrats have expressed concern that intelligence agencies have been withholding from the public specific intelligence information about the threat of foreign interference in American politics.

TRUMP is tight again!!! Democrats are in the pockets of the Chinese

The queen of the liars

words from the chairman himself

If we want to really rate the severity to which other countries are interfering with our elections and policy, Israel and Saudi Arabia have a far deeper impact in the way the president, of both parties, conducts foreign affairs.

Pelosi doesn’t care what happens to Americans. She has more money than her great grandkids will ever spend. They safe. Meanwhile we have to put up with her elitist spewing on a daily basis. Yuk.

BS! I'm sure the fact that the Chinese are trying oust Trump has nothing to do with her downplaying the situation.

so what she is saying its ok for China to to do this.because they support the dems i got it so again its a double standard but yet again it was proven trump did not collude with Russia

CCP🇨🇳 Are Working Overtime to get BeijingBiden elected

Putin’s GOP partners– “Derkach & Russian allies despise Biden, who spearheaded [Obama] efforts to reform Ukraine, rein in its oligarchs & diminish Russian influence. They’ve attempted to depict Biden’s reform efforts as a corrupt plot to enrich his son”

Does Moscow really give a damn about the elections here at this point in time? VladimirPutin doesn’t give a damn about the results of the election. As for China, XiJinping is fed up of DonaldTrump and the persecution of Chinese people and goods.

Bullshit. Like anyone believes her.

Hmm..suddenly the dems like the Chinese. A year ago they where a serious threat. Must be communistenvy

Beeotch, you can’t have it both ways! The intelligence says BOTH nations are actively interfering and have vested interests, and we all know the Chinese want Biden and the Russians want DT

Tried to read the article, but, so many pop-ups. Nancy Pelosi is correct there's a difference in Russian and China's involvement. Did the article mention her and husband's lucrative business dealings in China, but, not much in Russia?

So the if it benefits them it don’t matter!

😂😂😂😂... WTF...this is such a lie! China is THE MOST DANGEROUS!

🤣🤣🤣

Well China gave us the virus that crashed the entire globe. What has Russia done tapped a few emails. Shes right nowhere near the same. Finally agree with the old bint

She’s suffering from the same disease as Biden dementia

FBI active espionage cases 75% China CCP. Should the Democrats lie? Russia, Russia, Russia for 3 years, now Wind up toy starts again. Spying was Obama administration against political rival Trump. Clinton & DNC paid for fake Steele Dossier. So they Lie, Steal & Treasonous

*after her Botox appointment *

Back to this again. It’s not interfering unless a person’s vote gets changed after they voted.

What could this woman possibly know except to lie.

morgfair Russia's working hard to keep their agent in office. China can't hurt us any more than what Russia's agent's already done so they figure 'why bother'.

What about the British, French, Germans and Israelis? What foreign power was backing Epstein and Maxwell? Were they blackmailing U.S. Politicians? What about NXIVM?

Could you schill for the CCP any harder Pelosi?

Bahaha lie. China wants trump out and they are actively spreading propaganda through state owned media in the US. Why lie? Hmmm.. why ignore the Uighurs? Hmmm.

What a joke. Does she realize how stupid she sounds to most Americans?

Pelosi and establishment Dems are handing Trump 2020, and their theatrics hurt more than help.

This is America

Funny. It follows exactly what she needs it to say. If anyone really believes a damn thing she says I'd be surprised. Republican or democrat.

She’s eating to much Ice Cream

Yet, China is our biggest adversary by a long shot. And has been for years...

🤔🤣😂

Relax, everyone is doing to USA what the USA has always been doing to elections in other countries. Well maybe the Americans did even worse - assassinations, sponsoring regime changes, propping up puppets and of course, sanctions and invasions.

Lmao she’s covered for china because they want to walk all over biden like they did Obama

Democrats are looking more & more like they are in bed with CCP.

I honestly think republicans don’t care as long as trump wins -but god help if China helps Biden win hahaha

Apparently you are already worried Biden is not going to win !! Didn’t you say this 4 years ago

I believe the democrats and republicans in part as well are doing a fine job of interfering with the elections buying votes and manipulating the American people

This is a BS answer. Russia is a major threat to the US election..and guess what..SO IS CHINA. ANYYYY country attempting in interfere in the US election is a big deal and congress the the admin should do everything they can to stop it from happening.

How and why the republicans let that arrive? Shame on them.

Don't you love farce? My fault I fear. I thought that you'd want what I want. Sorry, my dear. But where are the clowns? Quick, send in the clowns. Don't bother, they're here.

Wow and the other media says just the opposite

So Russia likes DT and China likes Biden( neither votes here so who cares) but the latter is not really involved according to Pelosi. Intel says otherwise but politicians like Pelosi cannot resist the spinning lies.

well what are they doing? are they holding guns to people's head? are they hacking voting machines? as you can see the democrats are setting the stage to not accept the election results, they know Biden cant' win so this is the desperation showing.

Senator Rubio says foreign interference in our elections is okay.

The US military is FAR more concerned about the threat from China than Russia The downplaying of our biggest adversary is disgusting and make owlish look like commie tool

With this stateMent I am completely convinced that SpeakerPelosi is a total idiot out of touch with reality.

That’s because CCP supports her party.

The Chinese released a biological weapon on the world but not interfering with elections. Seriously?

If I'm not mistaken, It's in China's better interest to see Biden assume office. Not to mention all the financial special interests he's prostrated for.

I wish more liberal women had after birth abortions so they don't pollute this country with more liberalism

Anyone really believe anything coming out of her mouth other than her dentures?

lanct22 The fact that either can have an effect on the outcome of the election is beyond terrifying...double and triple check everything you read online...stop supporting candidates just because of what party they represent...

It’s okay when there’s foreign interference for the candidate she prefers

What a nice thing to say about China

She got played. Sorry, AP.

Anyone that believes this is a 🐑

Got it - SpeakerPelosi is delusional and in China’s pocket

China and iran also realize trump is an idiot who will cause wars and hate. Russia doesnt want change because trump is corrupt enough to let russia get aways with shit. I guarentee most of the world wants trump gone

She is a lying sack if shit. The Chinese have much more to lose if President Trump is re elected. Over the last several decades Congress incl Biden, Feinstein, & Pelosi have catered to the Chinese allowing the significant decline in American manuf & jobs. What a phony!

All Pre-planned between them anyway.

Where is their proof?

Russia has rented space in Pelosi's head.

they aren't idiots they just got money to resurect cold war, for making on weapon factories full scale load. so all American pay for hoax instead of health care or universal education.

Maybe the Democrats should concentrate on finding a presidential nominee that’s not senile. BTW anyone else notice that Pelosi has really big breasts?

Why isn’t he being held accountable? He gets away with something every day!! People are sick and dying, there’s civil unrest, foreign interference and zero reassurance or compassion from our “leaders”. I’ve lost faith in both sides.

Pelosi’s inner 1% is more obvious every time she opens her mouth.

This is how Trump won the first time! And now he’s doing it again. I just hope the Dems can beat him at his game!

No mask? She needs one.

She wants usa to become Marxist.

Bullsht. The DIrector of National Intelligence himself disputes Pelosis lies.

Then maybe it should be DJT who should be worried about interference, Nancy said on T.V. that China would rather have Joe Biden for president...

Hahaha. And like Trump stated: The report also includes Iran. But, again, FakeNews and EnemyOfThePeople including Pelosi, ignore that fact.

Pelosi is saying that because the China Communist Party want ChinaJoe to win.

Other countries interfering in elections? I know the US has never done that before.

While I usually support Pelosi- this is a bad answer. It should have been any intervening actions by any foreign government for either party is not to be tolerated.

Democrats r racist and evil and r and anti legal immigration . They just want illegal immigrants from South of the border. Trump best president ever for the whole world❤️

so she's on china's payroll, got it

So you guys u dont want others to interfere in your elections but at the same time thats what you do in small countries

The Democrats won’t say anything bad about China or Antifa! That says a lot about who they support. Wake up America, Democrats love China and they are our biggest adversary! SenateDems HouseDemocrats realDonaldTrump

Those damn Russians, always pestering me to vote for Trump. I told them I won’t tolerate their interference unless they give me a bottle of good vodka. Caviar would be nice too.

She is so full of it.

Waaahaahaahahaa

Dear Madame Speaker: I'm voting for President Trump. Russia has not influenced my vote.

Pelosi cannot be that ignorant, so I hope she is just lying. Russia and China both interfere in our domestic politics, just as we interfere in theirs.

Can’t wait for the presidential debate....all they been hiding from the American pple n the world shall come to light....Biden it’s you I’m talkin bout.. MAGA2020 TrumpLandslideVictory2020 AllLivesMatters

Is she going to see if China is making all the online quizzes where no matter what you answer the result is stuff like'you LOOOOOVE China' or 'CHINA ROX'? MustangsMom

Ha!!! Of course SpeakerPelosi would say China not really getting involved! CCP is for Biden 9:1 ! Sure just take spotlight off them, they’re fine. And let’s just conveniently forget about how they hacked Equifax and stole 180 mm of our soc sec nbr. Nah, they wouldn’t interfere

Intel only even mentioned China and others because the administration is hostile and trying to hide their findings. Russia is by far the threat.

Bahaahaahhaa

So did like Chyna call her and tell her what to say or do you just believe this woman as she stands out of the podium trying to make the President of the United States look bad anyway she possibly can for political reasons

Makes me like Russia 🇷🇺 even more

Is this SpeakerPelosi not accepting the analysis of the intelligence community? Isn’t that what she pilloried realDonaldTrump for doing? The irony.

Where was SpeakerPelosi in 2016, along with ObaMAGAate and bidenGate - those 3 as government officials were charged with stopping the interference. certainly not realDonaldTrump who was a private citizen.

Hahaha. These life long Washington DC creatures keep trying to feed us this crap still after four years of it blowing up in their faces. Pathetic. 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽

Let’s face facts: China’s position to see Trump out of office is well within the consensus of international opinion.

Oh really Chinese not getting involved? Is that what she was told at the last CCP planning meeting? Or was it Diane Feinstein’s driver who relayed the news?

Does anyone believe Pelosi who was wrong about Trump campaign collusion? China is the US adversary to be concerned with all all accounts and magnitude, but she won't even bring that up because they are pro Dem and Biden. Disgraceful. She will sell out this country to an enemy.

The powerless democrats 😂

NUTSY PELOSI

The woman honestly doesn't know what she's saying from one minute to the next.

Russia targeting Biden but China prefers Trump lose, counterintel chief saysTop intelligence officials have vowed to deliver more specifics about interference threats both to lawmakers and the American public. The idea that China is pro-Biden is so laughable. Trump is the best thing that has ever happened to China. Trump has done more to effectively neuter US projections of power and therefore give China free reign to expand their influence than the CCP’s wildest dreams. “Nat’l Security Council spokesperson John Ullyot said the U.S. 'will not tolerate foreign interference in our electoral processes and will respond to malicious foreign threats that target our democratic institutions.'
