Its been pretty obvious our government is extremely compromised by Russia for a while now.
Money compromised everything. When these people made laws designed around hiding their finances we were doomed.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The former FBI informant charged with fabricating claims about a bribery scheme involving Joe Biden, his son Hunter and a Ukrainian energy company has "extensive" contacts with Russian intelligence agencies, according to the Justice Department.
Federal prosecutors also say in a new court filing that Alexander Smirnov admitted to authorities after he was arrested that "officials associated with Russian intelligence were involved in passing a story" about President Biden's son, Hunter.
In the filing in federal court in Nevada, prosecutors argue that Smirnov be held in custody, pending trial.
Through his attorneys, Smirnov has asked the court to be released ahead of trial, saying he has ties to the community and isn't a flight risk.
"Thus, Smirnov's efforts to spread misinformation about a candidate of one of the two major parties in the United States continues," prosecutors said.
"He is actively peddling new lies that could impact U.S. elections after meeting with Russian intelligence officials in November."
The original article contains 444 words, the summary contains 157 words. Saved 65%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
And his surname is Smirnov, like a vodka-making brand. It sounds just like something from a Clancy's novel.
