He admitted that his pre-election payment to bury the story of Trump’s alleged affair with former Playboy model Karen McDougal was made “at direction of the candidate,” as was the $130,000 hush money payment to Stormy Daniels. Trump has said previously that he had no knowledge of the payment. Cohen also admitted that the payments were made with the intention of influencing the election.In some matters there's no reality, only perception.

Trump rally voorprogramma laat zien dat er nog steeds niets tussen Trump en zijn hardcore fanbase komt. De governor van West Virginia liet iedereen nog even zijn love pledgen aan de president onder luid gejuich. Lara deed net haar intro riedeltje over fake news, democrats en er werd door een andere GOP'er nog even op communisten gehaat.

The shadowy group, known as Strontium, created domains that mimicked organizations such as the International Republican Institute and Hudson Institute so intended victims would believe they were receiving legitimate emails or visiting real sites, Microsoft President Brad Smith said in a blog post. Microsoft said it’s sifting through evidence of the group’s intentions after getting a court order to take over those domains, effectively disrupting the hacking campaign.
The two targeted institutions are conservative bastions, which at times have been at odds with Russia or U.S. President Donald Trump. Russia rejected Microsoft’s accusations that it was attempting to influence upcoming U.S. elections, which will determine control of Congress, Interfax reported Tuesday, citing an unidentified diplomatic official.
Russia is accused of trying to sway the vote in 2016 through disinformation campaigns and targeted hacking, setting in motion a fiery dispute between Trump and Democrats. Even before Microsoft’s warning, top U.S. national security officials had sounded the alarm of further meddling in the midterms. At least three congressional candidates have already been hit with phishing attacks that strongly resemble Russian sabotage two years ago.
Cybersecurity firms Recorded Future and FireEye both said the behavior Microsoft identified is consistent with the group’s past operations. Analysts said they expect to see more operations like this.Russia calls Microsoft's hacking allegations a "witch-hunt"SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.

Ook kun je spoilers niet lezen als je een ban hebt.quote:Russian foreign ministry on Tuesday denounced as a “witch-hunt” accusations put forward by Microsoft Corp over alleged attempts by hackers linked to Russia’s government to launch cyber attacks on U.S. institutions.
“It is regrettable that a large international company, which has been working in the Russian market for a long time, quite actively and successfully has to take part in a witch-hunt that has engulfed Washington,” the ministry said in a statement.
Microsoft said that hackers linked to Russia’s government tried to carry out cyber attacks on the U.S. Senate and conservative American think-tanks. It accused Moscow of broadening attacks ahead of November’s U.S. congressional elections.

Facebook Identifies New Influence Operations Spanning Globequote:Facebook said on Tuesday that it had identified multiple new influence campaigns on its platform that were aimed at misleading people in different countries and regions. The social network found and took down 652 fake accounts, pages and groups that were trying to sow misinformation.
The activity originated in Iran and Russia, Facebook said. Unlike with past influence operations, which largely targeted Americans, the fake accounts, pages and groups were this time also aimed at people in Latin America, Britain, the Middle East, as well as in the United States, the company said.
The scale of what was uncovered far exceeded that of another influence operation that Facebook revealed last month, in which the company said it detected and removed 32 pages and fake accounts that had engaged in activity around divisive social issues ahead of the midterm elections.
But the aims of the latest campaigns on the social network appeared to be similar to those of past operations: to distribute false news that might cause confusion among people, and to alter people’s thinking to become more partisan or pro-government on various issues.
“We believe these pages, groups and accounts were part of two sets of campaigns,” Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive, said in a conference call about the activities late Tuesday. “One from Iran, with ties to state owned media. The other came from a set of people the U.S. government and others have linked to Russia.”SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd. Je moet je daarvoor eerst gratis Registreren.
