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.”

    Nice that it came to the light, but it was long clear that Putin supports his top agent to get back in the White House so he can get easy access to top secret papers again. I think we can safelöy assume that each and every piece of paper stamped “Top Secret” that Trump stored in various non-suitable places and forgot to return has found it’s way to Russia, at least as a copy.
