"Rigged" author explains how Russia is interfering in the 2020 election today

The Dworkin Report

Scott speaks with author David Shimer, whose new book "Rigged: America, Russia, and One Hundred Years of Covert Electoral Interference" has received critical acclaim, including from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Shimer is a Yale fellow and associate of the Wilson Center think tank whose work has appeared in Foreign Affairs and the New York Times.

"I show how the Soviet Union in the United States interfered in elections all over the world during the Cold War," Shimer told us. "[The book shows] how Russia is interfering in elections all over the world, in this century right now. It shows how Russia interfered in America's 2016 election and gets into both that operation and its aftermath."

"What I'd like to emphasize to your audience is just not to fall for the temptation when something happens, like if emails are released or if a new tactic is introduced," David presciently explained two weeks ago, "I think that the daily media has a tendency to ring the alarm bells and induce almost, or provide a sense of panic." In light of the Russian election interference scheme we are witnessing President Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani's conduct in real-time, it's a must-listen interview for anyone participating in the 2020 election.
