Tim Pool, Dave Rubin and Benny Johnson addressed allegations that a company they were associated with had been paid to publish videos with messages in favour of Russia
A number of high-profile, conservative influencers in the US have said they are “victims” of an alleged Russian disinformation campaign, after the Biden administration accused Moscow of carrying out a sustained campaign to influence the outcome of November’s presidential elections.
Tim Pool, Dave Rubin and Benny Johnson published statements on Wednesday evening addressing allegations that a US content creation company they were associated with had been provided with nearly $10m from Russian state media employees to publish videos with messages in favour of Moscow’s interests and agenda, including over the war in Ukraine.
Unfortunately the US Department of Justice says they agree because they are (yet again) bending over backwards to protect right wingers from being held accountable for their actions to harm our country
Garland doing half measures.

I just want to remind everyone that some dipshit dressed like a WWE wrestling heel managed to convince a Dem majority to vote to defund one of the biggest progressive GOTV operations in the midwest. But they can’t be bothered to hold millionaire media hacks to basic tenants of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
If Harris loses this election in a nail-bitter in some swing state bombarded with fake news, I hope we all remember this moment.
