Russia is Meddling in the US Election Again
Summary
The Russian group that interfered in the 2016 election is again targeting Americans with misinformation online.

The disinformation campaign, which Facebook and Twitter have taken down, was aimed at pushing voters away from Democratic candidate Joe Biden in support of President Trump. We'll check in on efforts to prevent misinformation on social media and foreign interference in the 2020 election.
