Washington — The Biden administration is set to accuse Russia of engaging in an interference campaign leading up to the 2024 presidential election, multiple sources familiar with the planning confirmed to CBS News.
The actions against Russia are expected to include multiple announcements across executive agencies on Wednesday, including charges filed by the Justice Department, the sources said. The news was first reported by CNN Wednesday.
Attorney General Merrick Garland is convening a meeting of the Election Threats Task Force Wednesday that will include FBI Director Chris Wray and top Justice Department officials.
"They're still at it," the FBI leader told the House Judiciary Committee during a hearing in July. "We've seen that in election cycle after election cycle."
Already, the FBI has disrupted a Russian AI-enhanced social media bot farm that spread disinformation in the U.S., which was designed to be an influence operation. Some of the fictitious profiles from bots purported to be Americans.
Wray said such efforts to influence U.S. elections were not limited to Russia, but also Iran — in 2020 and 2024 — and China
Jen Easterly, director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA, also warned about threats related to the 2024 election.
"We can absolutely expect that our foreign adversaries will remain a persistent threat, attempting to undermine American confidence in our democracy and our institutions, and to sow partisan discord," she told reporters Tuesday. "And that's why it is up to all of us not to let our foreign adversaries be successful."

Twitter is littered with it. If you happen to catch a Musk tweet when it happens you can see the automated insta-responses auto fill and they are all generic right wing accounts named after Trump or Musk or something similar. And now we are seeing the blue checks as bots too.
OpenAI has made this a nightmare for social media. But a lot of bot farms are set up by actual humans making it near impossible to detect. The human creates the account and then the AI runs it after.

Tim Pool exposed as a Russian asset. They were paying him $100k a week to constantly spout civil war jargon and divide us.
Honestly I'm starting to think Elon Musk's entire Twitter purchase was to divide us.

Thankfully Trump will set an example for the country with his concession, he won't resort to crybaby tactics like this.

Anyone with Twitter can easily check a Musk or Trump tweet themselves and see that the comments on tweets are now very balanced with opinion being shown both by people for and against. Posts from dem influencers are still being shown(because they get a lot of engagement) and they're still easily available for guys like LakerLegend to copy from there to here on ISH and pass on as his own opinion to get you guys riled up.
It sounds like you got used to only seeing anti Trump rhetoric as top comments, but that was before Musk and when Twitter was part of the censorship program to vilify regular Americans(those right wing generic accounts you mention).
You're likely right that some of those accounts are ran by people who use ChatGPT to write the posts, but I don't see why that concept of running and account would be limited to people supporting Trump and Elon. E.g you can try for yourself going on ChatGPT and get information about the recent assasination attempt, it won't give you much of anything.

Is this a joke? The blue checks filter to the top of the comments and the blue checks are 90% MAGA types who bought into the whole idea that Twitter is the only route to "free speech".

Look at that poll, virtually no Democrats. They all left. And then read all the comments. Like half of them are bots posting pictures of Trump shirtless riding a Lion. :oldlol:

Now look at that poll. It's an absolute joke. The whole place is one big MAGA bot.

Mark Cuban showed the bot issue here with this poll:
https://x.com/mcuban/status/1830283465964859404
When he tweeted that it was 804k votes, super lop-sided toward Trump, and magically only 656k engagements which is impossible.

And then look at Elon himself on there. He posts every single hour spewing the same "Vote Trump or America will fall to communism and freedom will vanish" repeatedly.
In fact, how does he even find the time to post that often? Isn't he supposed to be running like 10 companies? I mean he spends more time posting on Twitter than Chewing spends posting in here.
He himself is a Russian asset, he is doing EXACTLY what they want. Getting us to rage against our own media. Dividing us.

Trump always had the most energetic supporters when it came to memes and visuals. With 2024 AI capabilities, posting beefed up Trump pics is exactly what they would be likely to do now that they're not banned, shaddow banned or have their content hidden from general view. You're expecting blue collar middle class working people to be writing long political essays instead of having some fun with their free time on the internet instead?
Democrats left, or no longer follow Musk and didn't see the poll, and that's their right. If you'd rather live in a digital echo chamber with no opposing opinons, there are plenty of other platforms for this kind of thinking. Twitter used to be the same echo chamber and one big DNC bot, back around 2020 if you signed up and not followed anyone, you'd get suggested to follow Biden, Obama and Hillary, and official tweets from those accounts was pushed to your account and with notification on front screen unless you actively turned it off.
You probably got used to these echo chambers too, so you got the sense that support for Trump was disappearing so now you're annyoyed it's visible and go the route of dehumanizing your enemy. It's the same kind of dehumanization and dividing message about Trump being a threat to democracy which put crazy leftist Thomas Crooks a nano second away from blowing Trumps brains out live on CNN. I wouldn't be surprised at all if someone tries to kill Musk before the election because of the same kind of thinking you're expressing here and him "being a Russian asset".
Also, you don't have any proof that these accounts are bots. You used too, but it turned out to be fake due to twitter categorizing US accounts as Russian because of threat from US government to ruin the business.
But given your view, let me ask you these couple of questions:
1. About a month ago, thousands of twitter accounts all started posting anecdotes about Trump and Vance being "weird", all using that specific word. Were they bots?
2. LakerLegend are posts 90% tweets ad verbum from Trump hating twitter accounts or they have the word poopsie in it. Is he a bot?
