“Rebel News” is funded by #DarkMoney, in spite of always crying poor. A key source of this dark money? Well, ask yourselves: why is Rebel a constant source of Kremlin propaganda? Not just recently. Remember this from 2018? pressprogress.ca/ezra-levants-r… #Cdnmedia #CdnDisinfo #cdnpoli

Fast forward to before & since, #RussianInvasionOfUkraine. So-called “Rebel” so-called “News” has become a constant vector of 🇷🇺disinfo & propaganda. Including the role both played in #FluTruxKlan op. #cdnpoli

Since Russia’s attack on #Ukraine️, “Rebel News” has at times been brazen in amplifying Kremlin propaganda. #cdnmedia #cdnpoli #PutinWarCriminal

Rebel put out propaganda images, including phoney stocked shelves in Moscow in an effort to sway people against Russian sanctions. #CdnDisinfo #RebelNewsKremlinOps #cdnpoli

Take note of the cross propaganda of #FoxNews’ #TuckerCarlsonIsARussianAsset & Rebel News.

At times the propaganda of #RebelNewsKremlinOps is so blatant, it looks like it was written & handed down directly from the Kremlin. #cdnpoli #UkraineWar #CdnDisinfo #cdnmedia

I’d like to underscore this detail. Take note of the date of this propaganda piece written by RT/Rebel/Post Millennial propagandist, Ian Miles Cheong . It was published on February 23/22. Russia launched its full scale #UkraineInvasion on February 24/22. #Cdnmedia #cdnpoli

And here we have Ezra Levant retweeting a Russian state media propaganda video (while he attacks 🇨🇦’s gov’t & CBC), conveniently in English, attacking “diversity” - a Kremlin dog whistle to right wing rubes. H/t @PPollievre
