In the throes of the 2016 campaign, the FBI found itself with an escalating problem: Russian diplomats, whose travel was supposed to be tracked by the State Department, were going missing.
The diplomats, widely assumed to be intelligence operatives, would eventually turn up in odd places, often in middle-of-nowhere USA. One was found on a beach, nowhere near where he was supposed to be. In one particularly bizarre case, relayed by a U.S. intelligence official, another turned up wandering around in the middle of the desert. Interestingly, both seemed to be lingering where underground fiber-optic cables tend to run.
According to another U.S. intelligence official, “They find these guys driving around in circles in Kansas. It’s a pretty aggressive effort.”
It’s a trend that has led intelligence officials to conclude that the Kremlin is waging a quiet effort to map the United States’ telecommunications infrastructure, perhaps preparing for an opportunity to disrupt it.
“Half the time, they’re never confronted,” the official, who declined to be identified discussing intelligence matters, said of the incidents. “We assume they’re mapping our infrastructure.”
As the country — and Washington in particular — borders on near-obsession over whether affiliates of Donald Trump’s campaign colluded with the Kremlin to swing the 2016 presidential election, U.S. intelligence officials say Moscow’s espionage ground game is growing stronger and more brazen than ever.
It’s a problem that’s sparking increasing concern from the intelligence community, including the FBI. After neglecting the Russian threat for a decade, the U.S. was caught flat-footed by Moscow’s election operation. Now, officials are scrambling to figure out how to contain a sophisticated intelligence network that’s festered and strengthened at home after years’ worth of inattention.
Trash intends to let Russian spies back into their US compounds after Obama kicked them out.
Trash is very probably, and obviously SECRETLY, indebted to Pootin's mafiya by many $100Ms, giving Pootin leverage.
Next up, will be Trash allowing Rexxon T and Vlad to close their $500B oil/gas deal.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah.
Trump President. Not Clinton.

Putin president, not Mendeleev.
You gd right, hater.
It's perceived as righteous when we do it to them---and an outrage when it's done to us.
+1
Still, we should be aware of our enemies' capabilities and intentions.
Pootin HATES Hillary because she, as SoS, supported the Russian demonstrations against Pootin's crooked election in 2011(?), and of course, Hillary's little neocon Victoria Nuland supported the Ukrainian Nazis who overthrew Pootin's puppet in Ukraine.
puttin agrees
Thanks ObamaAfter neglecting the Russian threat for a decade, the U.S. was caught flat-footed by Moscow’s election operation.
But you approve so why are you complaining?
^^^Trump really knocked over the ing apple cart November last. Everybody got their rearranged. Obama thought he was going to be President for another 8 years. Gonna sit in there with the Clintons and have a grand old time.
Just gets better every day, bum.

Actually not really. Learn how to read brah.She leaked a memo that said Russians did not hack the elction
Something that reads: "The russians did not hacked the elections" is not something that 1, would be classified. And 2, would carry any criminal action toward the person who "leaked" it.
Real attempts by Russia to hack election results are certainly of great concern even if they were unsuccessful. Especially if we're going to kowtow to their every request moving forward as this administration seems inclined to do.
He mopped the in' floor with her in' ass.
