A Tennessee-based media company with prominent MAGA personalities on its roster has been accused of receiving millions of dollars from two employees of Russian state-backed media company Russia Today (RT) in order to influence American viewers.
According to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, the Russian employees created a $10 million scheme “to create and distribute content to U.S. audiences with hidden Russian government messaging.”
It’s just tiresome to see people blink straight past the billions injected by our at-home crop of fascist oligarchs and fixate squarely on “Facebook took $46k from a Russian media group to post ForwardsFromGrandma memes” as the singular reason for an electoral outcome.
Would that Americans could hold an ember of hate for the Koch Brothers that rivals the bonfire they feel towards Tucker Carlson and Russia Today.
