Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference

The Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference examined whether Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and whether any individuals in the U.S. government coordinated with those efforts. It found that Russia did conduct operations to influence the election, primarily through social media and hacking, to favor one candidate. The investigation did not establish that the Trump campaign criminally conspired with Russia, but it identified numerous contacts and efforts by individuals linked to the campaign. The report emphasizes that the interference was extensive and aimed at undermining confidence in the electoral process.
