The Chinese regime has the “most massive” program among countries seeking to interfere in the U.S. election, and has taken the most active role in political influence efforts, White House national security adviser Robert O'Brien said on Friday.

“There’s always going to be propaganda. There’s always going to be efforts to influence us,” O'Brien told reporters at a briefing. “We know the Chinese have taken the most active role.”
