Anne Applebaum's credibility should be nuked to zero after she got caught red-handed serving as a secret "Inner Cluster Cell" member of a busted British intelligence operation set up for covert censorship & political warfare operations known as the Integrity Initiative.
These secret "cluster cells" were set up by British intelligence to have "cluster members" spanning all key positions of political influence in a region
The clusters specifically sought as recruits: journalists, politicians, military, academic & business leaders in each country
Want to know what a real "organized online influence campaign" looks like? Welp, Anne Applebaum can tell you. She helped create them for her MI6-backed, UK Foreign Office funded political dark arts op
Here's her UK cluster secretly activating a Spain cluster to carry out a hit
Cluster members, like Anne Applebaum, were told not to tell anyone about their cell unless they could be trusted.
Since it was an intelligence cut-out, they were coy: "If asked about money for funding activities of a cluster, always be firmly vague and helpfully uninformative."
The Integrity Initiative, run out of Anne Applebaum's UK Inner Cluster Cell w/ a supporting cast from British intelligence, was utterly fixated on killing the Nordstream pipeline.
In 2018 they plotted: "Start a campaign to prevent construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline"
When the Nordstream pipeline mysteriously blew up & serendipitously accomplished Anne Applebaum's Integrity Initiative high-priority goal of killing the construction, Radek Sikorski (Polish defense minister) famously thanked the US government for blowing it up:
Radek Sikorski is Anne Applebaum's husband.

Wow. Incredible find here. Imran Ahmed, the censorship operative who pledged “black ops” against RFK and whose annual priority was to “Kill Elon’s Twitter” is being represented in court by Norm Eisen !!
Norm Eisen specifically made Internet censorship a cornerstone of his domestic color revolution playbook, published in 2025. Eisen personally representing Imran Ahmed now should be understood in that context.
Norm Eisen "personally trained prosecutors and judges" in USAID / State Dept Rule of Law programs before quarterbacking the domestic color revolution network against Trump when he won in 2016
What Blob Ops To Control Elections In Moldova Teach Us About Blob Ops To Control Elections Here -- Video thread from my sub stream on USAID in Moldova🧵
When NATO hires TikTok influencers to promote the pro-EU puppets in Moldova or Romania, that's kosher. If Russians simply have TikTok accounts and criticize pro-EU puppets in Moldova or Romania, the entire election has to be canceled unless the pro-EU party wins.
Every time you hear the word "integration," replace that word in your head with "digestion." So when someone says "EU integration," think "EU digestion." A country is being eaten alive, digested, and only a husk of its old self will remain, to be pooped out at the end.
This is the day I’ve warned the Trump Admin every day for 7 years would come, since 2018’s EU Disinfo Code, to 2019 when the DSA was floated in concept, to 2020 when it became a formal draft EU law while I was at State, to its 2022 adoption, to its 2025 mandatory Disinfo Code. 🧵
I keep telling you exactly what to do and exactly what bad things will happen next if you think you can ignore this and not do anything, and each thing I keep saying will happen next literally keeps happening next and happening exactly as I told you it would if you didn’t act
How could anyone in the admin be surprised the EU censorship law would fine/extort X ??? That’s WHY they made the law, whose enforcement teeth JUST kicked in this summer! This is like letting a flesh-eating cannibal sleep on your chest then being surprised it bit your heart
2. Super short story version on @joerogan of how this plot set in motion above, "Say something about a critical infrastructure threat to elections to feel menace," from today's classified annex, snowballed into the Disinformation Governance Control to control social media speech
@joerogan 3. Note, for example, how DHS — who mass censored virtually the entire Trump movement during the 2020 election — got away with censoring by citing power to “protect critical infrastructure” of elections from “misinformation”, self-aware they bumped up against the First Amendment
BREAKING 🚨 The US State Department has just placed all 30 full-time staff at the Global Engagement Center’s remnant known as R-FIMI on leave, eliminated all 50 full-time staff positions and delivered a notice to Congress ending R-FIMI’s existence and $65 million in funding 🧵👇
This historic development today was made possible by @SecRubio and Acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy @DarrenJBeattie, as part of a complete restructuring of the State Department’s activities and capacities to prevent the abuses and weaponization of the past.
@SecRubio @DarrenJBeattie The development today is the State Department’s initiation of a RIF (Reduction In Force) that will permanently end the positions at GEC / R-FIMI, so there is no more reshuffling of positions or simple renamings of the office to carry out the same malign censorship efforts.
Bad Kitty has published a very important series here, with a lot of details that I think need to be cleanly organized and sense-made for a wider audience so what she’s uncovered really hits home. I’ll be going over these on tonight’s sub stream at 10pm ET
