The NABWMT, as a program by the Media Committee is monitoring Voter Suppression in the USA. They have information on their web pages to keep folks aware of the attack on our vote by such news.

So, the National security advisor, said he had no knowledge of intelligence agency warnings that Russia is trying once again to help Trump by interfering in the 2020 campaign. Aides have tries to downplayed this.

Vice Adm. Joseph Maguire has retired as acting director of national intelligence claimed to be unrelated to Trump’s unhappiness over this briefing to lawmakers about Russian attempts at election interference.

The president presses ahead with his reelection bid and the Democratic contest for the nomination to oppose him gathers pace. So, Trump’s backers suggested that Ukraine — not Russia — interfered with the 2016 campaign. However,  the U.S. intelligence community concluded Moscow sought to do so in 2016.

National security advisor Robert C. O’Brien said he was not aware of any effort by Russia to try to bolster Trump’s 2020 prospects. In addition, news outlets have said lawmakers were told last week that the Kremlin is seeking to aid Trump, and also looking to help Sen.

Vice President Mike Pence’s chief of staff, Marc Short, denied in an interview on “Fox News Sunday” that Maguire’s departure was prompted by Trump’s displeasure over a briefing to members of Congress given by one of Maguire’s deputies.

Pence’s chief of staff also depicted Maguire’s departure as in line with the scheduled end of his tenure by March 12, since he was serving in an acting capacity. “It’s not firing,” he said.
