Unsealed FBI doc exposes terrifying depth of Russian disinfo scheme
New court documents reveal that Russia is keeping a very, very long list of influencers to spread its propaganda.
The Russian disinformation plot revealed in a Justice Department indictment this week may just be the tip of the iceberg, according to newly unsealed court documents.
On Wednesday, the DOJ announced it would seize 32 internet domains linked to a larger Kremlin scheme to promote disinformation and influence the 2024 election. The Russian campaign, known as Doppelganger, uses AI-generated content to create “fake news” boosted through social media with the aim of electing Donald Trump.

Of particular note, the documents released Wednesday included an affidavit that noted a Russian company is keeping a list of more than 2,800 influencers world wide, about one-fifth of whom are based in the United States, to monitor and potentially groom to spread Russian propaganda. The affidavit does not mention the full list of influencers, but is still a terrifying indicator of how deep the Russian plot to interfere in U.S. politics really goes.
Yup. Good enough for me.
Everything else you've got is pretty trash in terms of talking points. You're even contradicting your own earlier posts. Try being more consistent ideologically next time.
The fuck is this whattaboutism for example? These guys aren't even related to the case discussed.
We have a list of 2800 influencers who have been caught up into some Russian disinformation campaign, about 20% of whom are American and thus have rights against being outted right now (at least, until further crimes are found plausible). I'd say this is a big deal. And further interaction with the money is banned.
And that's liberalism in a nutshell.
Never solve the problem. Just put a band aid on to cover it up.
I'm a conservative yo.
You talk like a Democrat
Sounds like something a non-American would say.
