House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says that despite the intelligence community’s recent disclosure about Iran’s attempt to interfere with the outcome of the U.S. presidential election, Russia is the real threat undermining the election in November.

“Russia is the villain here from what we have seen in the public domain,” Pelosi told reporters at a press conference Thursday. “Iran is a bad actor but in no way equivalent.”
