The Department of Justice (DOJ) has recently announced sanctions on Russia for allegedly attempting to influence the upcoming elections. Attorney General Merrick Garland filed charges and seized internet sites believed to be involved in the interference. It was revealed that some right-wing provocateurs were utilized by Russia in these efforts.
Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed the sanctions as a joke and advised his supporters to back Vice President Kamala Harris. This move has sparked discussions on the credibility of the intelligence community in addressing foreign interference in U.S. politics.
