Rep. Adam Schiff: Russians now attacking 2018 elections

Facebook reveals new attacks on the 2018 U.S. Midterm elections that they describe as “consistent” with the Russian election meddling in 2016. Rep. Adam Schiff tells Ari Melber that the Russians appear to be using the same “vectors” to meddle in the 2018 midterms as they did to interfere in the 2016 Presidential election: using social media and hacking political campaigns. Schiff also notes he is “concerned” that Congress learned about the attempted hacking of 3 campaigns this year from Microsoft, rather than from Federal intelligence agencies, which he attributes “unquestionably” to a lack of focus from the Trump administration.Aug. 1, 2018
