President Donald Trump has accused The New York Times of committing an “act of treason” over its recent report alleging that the United States is “stepping up digital incursions” on Russia’s electric power grid.
The June 15 report cited anonymous former and current government officials as claiming that the United States has increased its cyber-attack efforts as a warning to Russian authorities. The article said it was a “demonstration” of the Trump administration’s use of their new authorities.
