Acting Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on Wednesday warned that countries working to destabilize the United States are prepared to interfere in upcoming elections either on or close to Election Day, echoing recent warnings from top federal law enforcement and intelligence officials.
“WARNING. The bulk of disinformation attacks prepared by our adversaries were designed for the days before & just after Election Day,” Rubio wrote to Twitter. “They may come faster than they can be spotted & called out, so word to the wise, the more outlandish the claim, the likelier it’s foreign influence.”
