How exciting! US Treasury imposes sanctions on 4 Ukrainian traitors who were working alongside Russian intelligence agents. A few are Medvedchuk's people. Medvedchuk is Putin's associate and is under investigation for treason. ria.ru/20220120/sankt…
"Russian intelligence services, including FSB, recruit Ukrainian citizens in key positions to gain access to sensitive information, threaten sovereignty of Ukraine, and then leverage these Ukrainian officials to create instability in advance of a potential Russian invasion."
“United States is taking action to expose & counter Russia’s dangerous and threatening campaign of influence & disinformation in Ukraine,” said Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Adeyemo. “We are committed to taking steps to hold Russia accountable for their destabilizing actions"

I am angry, stressed, overwhelmed w the news from hell. Have been warning about the threat Kremlin poses forever and there cannot be mixed messaging coming out during Putin’s reckless dangerous escapades. He has spent over a decade attacking democracy and creating complete chaos
Russia has invaded countries, used their tactics to divide countries, attacked elections, installed pro Kremlin fools, and spent a decade doing everything to subvert democracies around the globe. It didn’t have to get to this dangerous juncture had the Kremlin been dealt with
With that said the West must unite and protect Ukraine and Europe because an attack on Ukraine can easily spill over into Eastern Europe. Every single measure needs to be taken against Putin and his criminal thieves including seizing their assets in West/sanctioning them all
Putin is acting like a reckless sociopath endangering all his neighbors. Why didn’t the West stop his a decade ago? Appeasement has led to this dangerous point where he is simultaneously preparing for another invasion while lashing out at Europe and US thetimes.co.uk/article/russia…
US has not once threatened any attack. If anything the strategy was exhaustive diplomacy. Meanwhile one of the insane Duma members called for a nuclear strike against Nevada. Just because. The rhetoric coming out is the worst I have seen in decades
Ukraine was hit with a cyberattack and now Norway. And this happened along with threats to Sweden
Good! The world needs to see this propaganda operations by the Kremlin and how they work
NSA Sullivan stated that they will share info with press within the next 24 hours on what US officials have seen Russia doing in terms of disinfo to create a pretext to further invade Ukraine
Here was one of many disinformation operations that was just plain nuts
Kazakhstan’s Pres Tokayev announced that he wil become the head of the Security Council after dismissing ex pres Nazarbayev. Mass protests continue across many cities and a Russian plane arrived earlier this morning ria.ru/20220105/kazak…
Another Russian special flight squadron TU-2014 is heading to Kazakhstan. Possibly to evacuate officials. Also Tokayev warned of a tough response to protesters
These protests started because over fuel prices. Russia is calling them riots meanwhile Nazarbayev's son in law, Kulibayev, who sits in Gazprom’s board is known as the oil king. How kleptocracy affects regular people struggling to get by. Also internet outages have been reported
Kazakhstan's Pres Tokayev has declared a 2 week state of emergency in Almaty and in western Mangistau as protesters came out in large numbers to protest fuel prices. Roads are closed, military deployed and firing tear gas, stun grenades, internet disrupted
Besides Russia obsessively covering these protests propagandists started circulating assurances and a map that the Russian population in the north does not support these protests and is calm dialog.ua/opinion/243631…
