Trial has begun in Florida for four activists accused of illegally acting as Russian agents to help the Kremlin sow political discord and interfere in U.S. elections.
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Trial began Tuesday in Florida for four activists accused of illegally acting as Russian agents to help the Kremlin sow political discord and interfere in U.S. elections.
All four are or were affiliated with the African People’s Socialist Party and Uhuru Movement, which has locations in St. Petersburg, Florida, and St. Louis. Among those charged is Omali Yeshitela, the 82-year-old chairman of the U.S.-based organization focused on Black empowerment and the effort to obtain reparations for slavery and what it considers the past genocide of Africans.
IMO: The Russiagate hoax was a hoax, similar to the Tulsi Gabbard and Jill Stein smears and many others.
It would be really interesting if a duopoly ex-president can be sent to trial and jailed; it would open it up for our past and future presidents being sent to trial and jail as well. It would be awesome if they were sent due to war crimes!
I wonder which journalists in MSM get propped up by the owner-class; it seems many like to follow the status quo, whether they are "left" or "right" leaning.
Federal officials have accused Russia of using unwitting right-wing American influencers in its quest to spread Kremlin propaganda ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
Tenet was founded in 2022 by Lauren Chen, a conservative Canadian YouTuber, and her husband, Liam Donovan, whose X profile describes him as president of Tenet Media. Chen hosts a show on Glenn Beck’s BlazeTV and is a contributor to right-wing activist group Turning Point USA. She wrote opinion pieces for RT in 2021 and 2022.
What sets the RT operation apart from many other interference efforts is that it appeared to reach a real audience, thanks to the recognizable names attached.
After Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, many American cable distributors dropped RT’s U.S channel, RT America, from their lineups, and it eventually shut down production. The video scheme allowed RT to covertly reach American audiences without a presence on the airwaves, the indictment alleged.
“There was no influence exerted over me in that way. There's no change in my perspective or the nature of my content,” said Matt Christiansen, another Tenet Media contributor, in a livestream on Wednesday evening. “How am I unwittingly duped into saying someone else’s words when I wrote every one of them?”
If you're just gonna dismiss every media outlet because you don't like the words they use, read the indictment. Tim pool and Dave rubin and friends are literally russian mouthpieces no matter who says it.
Yeah, they accuse them because they spew russian talking points all the time. This is different because they discovered that the company that pays them was actually founded by 2 RT employees. Literally. Actually. Russian. State. Funded.
The owner-class and their lackeys will get away with much more when we compare the working class being sent to jail, 13th Amendment and all.
Thirteenth Amendment
Section 1
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
IMO: People bash China for their alleged "Social Credit System," but in the US we have a credit score system and many other government agencies that are there to collect our data; it all seems like wishful thinking while also following the status quo talking points, so the American people don't pay attention to what our politicians and those in power are doing to the working class.
Well, in the US it’s all about how likely you are to repay your debt. Not, like, how many times you heil Xi or avoid eye contact with Pooh bears (I joke) (or do I?)

Yes, playing the game how they want you to will keep you in the safe area.

If you follow the free speech news and the political tribalism in the US, you would see that we do not differ that much with the China calims being said.
It seems like every day we get closer to what negative things we say about other foreign nations.
