The Report of the Select Committee on Intelligence, United States Senate, entitled “Russian Active Measures Campaigns and Interference in the 2016 U.S. Election – Volume 5: Counterintelligence Threats and Vulnerabilities,” issued August 18, 2020.
This edition by Quid Pro Books is Part 1 of 2, dividing the August 2020 report in half. This first part adds a Foreword by Steven Alan Childress, a senior law professor at Tulane University.
Although volumes issued earlier by the committee covered other aspects of the Russian operation, such as its "efforts against election infrastructure" and its "intentions," this Volume 5 is the virtual culmination of the committee’s investigative and reporting work for the U.S. Senate. Reports issued before August 2020 lack the breadth, depth, and insight into interactions between the foreign interference program and U.S. participants. Thus this book, with its particular subtitle and divided into two parts, is not to be confused with the earlier and more tentative Volumes sharing the same main title. Moreover, the printing by Quid Pro is not affiliated with garbled Kindle versions that may have low reviews for their poor quality. And this paperback is printed in 7.4x9.6" format so as to fit a normal size for a book, unlike other publishers' letter-size reprintings, yet it retains the committee's pagination.
Part 1 includes introductory material and pages 1–463 of the Select Committee on Intelligence’s report. Part 2 excerpts pages 464–952, beginning with the involvement of George Papadopoulos and Carter Page and ending with the separate views of several Senators, including Sen. Wyden's assessment of the redactions and issues remaining. Part 2 is sold separately on this site, with a blue cover.
As the New York Times concluded upon its release, the report “provided a bipartisan Senate imprimatur for an extraordinary set of facts: The Russian government disrupted an American election to help Mr. Trump become president, Russian intelligence services viewed members of the Trump campaign as easily manipulated, and some of Mr. Trump’s advisers were eager for the help from an American adversary.”
