Конгресс вернулся к работе. Комиссия Сената по разведке выпустила промежуточный отчёт о российском вмешательстве в выборы. Речь идёт о хакерских атаках на инфраструктуру.

In 2016, cyber actors affiliated with the Russian Government conducted an unprecedented, coordinated cyber campaign against state election infrastructure. Russian actors scanned databases for vulnerabilities, attempted intrusions, and in a small number of cases successfully penetrated a voter registration database. This activity was part of a larger campaign to prepare to undermine confidence in the voting process. The Committee has not seen any evidence that vote tallies were manipulated or that voter registration information was deleted or modified.

Председатель комиссии собирается свернуть расследование к августу 2018, очевидно чтобы оно не повлияло на выборы в Конгресс в ноябре.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr (R-N.C.) said Tuesday that he plans for the panel to begin to wrap up its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election in August, when the Senate leaves for a monthlong recess.
"This gives staff the month of August in all likelihood to wrap up our investigation and for staff to work intensely while we're out of here and not getting in their hair," Burr told reporters.
The committee's assessment of whether or not there was any evidence of coordination or collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia will be part of that final work, he said.

Вчера в комиссии прошли слушания по утверждению Джины Хаспел на пост директора ЦРУ. Отношение к этому двойственное. С одной стороны, Хаспел - ветеран разведки, включая российский отдел (заместившем директора которого она одно время работала), и ее профессионализм коллеги оценивают очень высоко.

Within the storied halls of Langley, Ms. Haspel is widely regarded as a serious officer who is prepared to lead the CIA on day one if the Senate acts to confirm her as the first female D/CIA. She understands how to work with the CIA’s interagency partners and liaison colleagues. Ms. Haspel has also long been focused on the care and protection of the men and women of the CIA. Her career is a sterling example of service and commitment to country. For all this, she commands the devotion of the men and women of the CIA workforce and the respect of the substantial group of bipartisan leaders that have already gone on record to support her nomination.

В администрации Трампа компетентный профессионал на своём месте - большая редкость.
