Indications that russia is targeting the 2018 u.s. midterms at a scale or scope to match their activities in 2016. but let me go further. just like the activity targeting internet-connected systems in other sectors, we do consistently observe malicious cyber activity from various actors against u.s. election infrastructure. >> so she says they consistently observe sort of these malicious actions happening but not to the scale to which they happened in 2016. what do you make of this? >> look, russia still views the united states as their main adversary. we're their main target. that hasn't chan...

Additional indictment here that will include americans. you know, i think it defies belief to think that we won't see an indictment that includes roger stone, who is clearly the go-between with guccifer and is referenced in this indictment. we don't know who mueller plans to indictment, but it seems very clear that this indictment last friday was not the last indictment in this special counsel investigation. >> interestingly enough, joyce, you bring up the fact that we could easily see roger stone indicted. roger stone is saying these indictments vindicate him, so two very different points of ...
