In discussing tactics, Evanina noted that the countries could try to compromise election equipment either to affect results or give the illusion of tampered results, but he did not say that such activities have been observed., criticizing the U.S. response to the coronavirus, although Evanina noted that Beijing continues to weigh the"risks and benefits of aggressive action" when it comes to influencing the election.
The statement did not refer to any specific cyberattack attempts on the part of any of the three countries in the style of Russia in 2016. And Evanina noted that it would be difficult, due to the disparate nature of America's election infrastructure, to affect vote tallying at scale.that his team had seen"nothing at the directed, focused level of 2016."In a joint statement, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.
Nobody has been tougher on Russia than President Trump. This is contrary to Obama who was, while on a hot mic, caught making unguarded comments with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Obama said he would have more 'flexibility' on difficult issues after November's election.
When did the US become the playground for proxy wars? That was our thing!!
The difference is, one of the candidates will acknowledge it and be alarmed about it and one of the candidates will welcome it.
I can’t wait for President Trump to acknowledge the dangers of China’s involvement! 🍿
So now it’s a contest between China and Russia. How the (once) mighty has fallen.
Congrats USA: we’re finally a proxy war just like we’ve always wanted for the rest of the world.
NPR - fire you twitter writer. Again, the title used china 'trying to 'undermine' ' election, where as the article only says 'prefers.' NPR's standards has dropped to the level of dumpster fire, if it's tweet writer is a propagandist. Fire your tweet writer.
Russia is causing Biden’s dementia?
WW3-esque
It does not matter. There is a good chance Trump won’t leave the White House if he loses.
Whoa.
The candidates denigrate themselves just fine.
No matter who wins the election US will remain a military ruled state, between USmilitary starting fires abroad and police doing the same at home , status quo will be preserved
Well, I’ve got to hand it to China on this one. I’m sure they hate dealing with the unstable, uneducated, petulant child trump, and would rather negotiate with an adult...Biden. Russia? Well, they want our country in tatters; trump will achieve that for them.
No shit, really ?
Can China just release the pee tapes
china is undermining, russia is interfering...shit show!
Lmfao I give up
So why can’t trump just say, we can’t have this and form a commission to help prevent it?

Never thought I'd be rooting for China in a US presidential race, but here we are.
I’m rooting for China.
Still playing the Russian card?
NPR! Don't you dare 'both sides' this issue!
WITH THE HELP OF SITTING GOP SENATORS! You buried the lede. 🙄
Conflation of two different approaches. You can not capture nuance in a headline and people won’t read the story.
?
Not a trymp fan, but bidens not the answer
they'll just cancel each other
So it’s China versus Russia in our election. Good. Seems like how it is intended to be
Lol
That's BOGUS! You should pull this tweet. 'Prefers' is not on the same level as actively engaged.
Fix your headline. Doesn’t match what’s in the report
Tit for tat
China usurps Russia as our 1 foe.
Here we go with the fucking RUSSIA BULLSHIT again.
China has a preference who wins; all nations do. Russia is actively interfering in our electoral campaign like they did in 2016, with big payfoffs and no negative consequence to them. Big big difference.
Feels really weird saying this... but... go China?
Ok, so let’s do something about ALL foreign interference in our elections regardless of which party benefits!
That’s what countries do. Including the US.
Who? Ratcliffe?
China rolls over Hong Kong and Tibet, builds concentration camps, sells nuclear technology to the Saudis and expands its military. The GOP bans dance videos and says this. The base never looks closer
You don't need 'national intelligence reports' to see that LOL...
It's a known fact Russia has a favorite, they're meddling. The Chinese intentions are to create an atmosphere of distrust against our electorate system.
So our election is a battle between China and Russia. I'm putting my money on China.
Baloney. China gets everything it wants with Trump. This is theater for the base
China is bigger than Russia so “Go Joe, Go”
Tim Murtaugh for the president's reelection campaign, said: 'We don't need or want foreign interference, and President Trump will beat Joe Biden fair and square.' They sound like a bunch of misfit kids in a 90s sports movie. “We don’t need NOBODY and we’re gonna PROVE it to ya.”
Holy Moly, Rocky! My childhood nightmares are coming true! Please don’t make me duck and cover!
😂 oh America. What a mess.
Rooting for China. 😐
Is he an actual intelligence officer or just a Trump sap?
Ok, Biden Fu Yung vs Trumpski, got it.
Didn't Trump -- unlike Biden -- encourage China to interfere? Reap what you sow.
China and Russia are using the USA as a puppet in their power struggle. Why don't they just go at it toe-to-toe and leave the USA out if it?
Difference is that Joe Biden won't accept help from China while trump is more than happy to accept any and all help from Russia.
LilySuJa How sweet. Russia and China are fighting over us. I say we step aside and let them duke it out. Russia doesn’t stand a chance.
the largest threat to america wants Potato Joe. (no, not anfifa, the chinese.) joepotatoe
lol, like either of them need any help at being terrible When they're already arguing over who can best walk and talk and recognize animal shapes on a weekly basis, it won't be much extra work to make them look bad.
See this broadcast
I think they are both interfering to get us to point fingers at each other, etc... They are both bad actors and they are just trying to create confusion and distrust. And turn the American people against each other.
What hath Trump wrought?
We don’t need Fans.
Its so easy to smell both turds, so vote green party n howie hawkins, he stands for m4a and all the other good ideas
Why does the press continue to attribute equivalency to China’s alleged “desires” with Russia observed “activities”? The US should be focusing on the foreign actor actively engaged in efforts to disrupt the election, but Trump/Barr won’t permit it. Treasonous. Report that!!
Go China!
I hope the Russians and the Chinese help to persuade me to vote for Trump again!
More BS!! Defund NPR!!
Now that CCP and theNewSovietovietUnion are complete dictatorships with rubber stamp government branches (something donnyt wet dreams about) the U.S. intel community has ZERO influence on their 'elections'.
I hope China wins biggly.
Jesus! What’s happening with ? You tweeted this a day ago seemingly implying that China and Russia cancel each other out when we know that’s not the case. Russia is helping the moron in the WH, China prefers, but is not meddling to help his opponent! Are you asking questions?
As long as you both-sided it everything is good. Same exact actions from both countries, right, that’s what you’re saying? Seriously, what happened, NPR? Did you fire so many people that the intern’s intern handles your social media now?
China fights Russia on American soil. Proxy war. Fight the faraway enemy is better than crossing their long, shared boundaries.
If China is anxious to keep trump out of the WH it has nothing to do with Biden, it is simply that they are smart enough to know that a world in chaos with trumpis bad for business, Putin on the other hand is all in on trump b/c the chaos and corruption is what he is paying for.
Biden should ask China to assist him, since it’s something the GOP doesn’t see any problems with.
The whole world except Russia wants this orange monster defeated.
I know what we should do, let’s carpet bomb ballots all over the country and hope that they reach the right people.
The people rooting on China are also the people overlooking the slavery in that country all four political agenda
And America and Americans let all of this happen because....
According to the poll, 71% of Chinese support Trump. He is someone we trust.
Maybe Russia and China will cancel each other out
Oh, great!
Who’s the top official? Maxwell Smart? Hahahahaha hahahahaha!!
So it was the Obama Administration doing it last year now it is the Democrats trying to and Russia at least birds of a feather will always flock together
All of Our enemies prefer Biden. This is a basic fact.
Do not both sides this, please. Correct this headline.
Seems like everyone is getting a say, but us.
Hope China wins this one.
NPR isn’t doing truth any favors with its headlines. China doesn’t like Trump for some reason. But they aren’t attacking our election the way Russia is. Read the reports.
I thought NPR was better than this kind of oversimplification into a narrative of false equivalency.
Democrats have already pushed legislation forward for protecting our elections from outside interference. Been sitting on Mitch's desk for a long time.
We cannot turn the reigns of our nation over to a competent yankee
why don't we just end all this madness over how America will undertake an election amid the pandemic they so pathetically can't seem to handle, by just having the Russians & Chinese decide between them via arbitration?
If China supports NOT having Trump, then I actually agree with China! HailChina
Bring it on China and Russia. We’re ready💪💪🙏
Actually that’s not what they said. They said Russia is currently meddling in our election AND that China and Iran prefer Biden. Did not say China was meddling. Come on NPR be better than this
Does Trump need help undermining his campaign?
Putin riding Trump into battle:
The only votes that foreigners influence are the silo-readers! Read widely and wisely!
I'm rooting for China on this one.
The whole world should want Biden to win. Trump is chaos, he’s a demogogue. VoteBidenToSaveAmerica
I hope ET or Jesus returns before November..then you both will lose.
🇺🇸 🇨🇳 🇷🇺 “New START” : crucial
No, *you’re* the puppet
