So, the Democrat “Russian interference” election narrative can be reborn from the ashes! :ghost: :ghost: :ghost:

Well…

Everyone on that list is 100% a dimwit.

Throw in Jimmy Dore and Steven Crowder and you’d have a Royal Flush.

Think through the implications here…

So far, everyone embroiled in this indictment (just the tip of the iceberg) is claiming to have been set up and retained independent control of their content. That is not believable, but is the predictable argument. This warning, from someone who wades in the same fetid swamp, is saying “dont make that excuse because they know you are not and it will make it worse for you” and positioning it, somehow, as a furtherance of these guys being the victims and the Feds being the bad guys.

The indictment that came out this week made a clear if under the radar acknowledgement that this case is just one of many active influence operations they have under investigation, and you have to imagine its tentacles go far deeper into our politics than just moronic podcast bros.

Keep in mind that in 2016 shortly after the election Paul Ryan was caught on a hit mic openly acknowledging the belief within the party that at least one member of their house caucus was bring paid at time by the Kremlin. Rand Paul, who has taken many pro-Russian positions supposedly in the interest of US isolationism, has had two different senior aides jailed for being on the Russia payroll, one of whom acted to get Russian money into the Trump 2016 campaign fund

By the way…

We are now close enough the election that people who have insisted a good economy is actually a bad economy will start describing good economic news as being because of anticipation of a Trump presidency.
