On Friday, US President Donald Trump dismissed US intelligence warnings that Russia was meddling in this year's elections, describing it as a "hoax" by his Democratic opponents.

"There is another disinformation campaign launched by the Democrats in Congress, saying that Russia prefers me to any candidate who does nothing from the Democrats who, after two weeks, are still unable to count their votes in Iowa," Trump wrote on Twitter. "Trick Number 7!"

US intelligence officials warned during a testimony before the House of Representatives that Russia was interfering in the 2020 election campaign in support of Donald Trump, which drew the ire of the president, who then decided to fire the director of national intelligence, Joseph Maguire, according to media reports.

The Washington Post and The New York Times reported Thursday that Trump was angry with Acting National Intelligence Director Maguire when he learned of the February 13 session before the House Intelligence Committee.

Shelby Pearson, McGuire's aide, was reported to have told lawmakers that Russia was meddling in the US elections for Trump.

Reports stated that Trump complained that Democrats would use this information against him.
Trump was also dismayed by the presence of Democrat Adam Schiff, who led the investigation that led to the House passed, dismissing the president on charges of abuse of power and obstructing the work of Congress, the session, according to the "New York Times."

The Kremlin has rejected what was reported in a report alleging that Russia is trying to interfere in the electoral process in the United States to tip the ballot for President Donald Trump in the upcoming elections due later this year.

The Russian news agency TASS quoted a spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin as saying that the allegations were "suspicious."

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the report was another "episode in a series of reports of suspicious madness." We regret to say that the number will increase with the approaching elections. Certainly, these (reports) are completely false. ”
