"Russia bought the right. The cost was around $10 million so far, but this might just be the first of many bombshells. …
The payments from Russia were in the hundreds of thousands of dollars to some of the top commentators on YouTube and Twitter—all at the expense of our democracy."

"The Russians are accused of laundering $9.7 million to Tenet, which was 90 percent of all the money the company received during the time in question. (That’s right, 90 PERCENT of the money for this hot new upstart right-wing media company came from Russian shell companies. Oh, did you think they were funded by the grassroots?)"

Yesterday, one day short of 60 days before the November election, the US government did four things:
"• Indicted two RT officials, Konstantin Kalashnikov and Elena Mikhaylovna Afanasyeva, and in the process exposed some right wing influencers to be useful idiots paid indirectly by RT.
• Unsealed the domain takedown affidavit for a bunch of sites used in a Russian fake news program, Doppelgänger."

"• Imposed Treasury sanctions on RT and Doppelgänger, among other entities.
• Indicted Dmitri Simes and his spouse, Anastasia, on sanctions tied to Aleksander Udodov."

@wdlindsy I wouldn't doubt they are behind much of the funding fueling much of the Anti-LGBTQ Republicans hate against Trans and LGBTQ people.

@CloudyBlake I don't think I'd ever seen that Upton Sinclair quote before. I really like it. Thanks for sharing it.

My tiny country Bulgaria was subjected to over 300 million of US propaganda and espionage money just last year. (Only the VoA website team got 143 millions). US embassy in Sofia is of a size of entire quarter, and no government could do its job without the approval of US.
How this compares to the 10 millions that Russia spent in US?
—Armenia and Georgia are subjected to even worse cases of US influence than Bulgaria.

@tuparev @inthehands I see. Russia and what it's doing are all good, then. Since that's the case — in your mind, evidently — I wonder why Europe just doesn't turn to Russia as its great savior?

That's exactly the problem with the neolibs!
You think, that you are riding on a white horse of moral values and everyone else is in a jungle of misery. Count the body bags your morals created and compare them with the jungle!
BTW, if you bothered to exam my CV (you did not) you might learn, that I did escape the communism and for many years was prominent member of different EU green parties. I just dislike the western arrogance.
