In light of today’s news of DOJ exposing Russia’s disinformation operations via Tenet Media and American influencers, I’m going to start a thread on others besides Benny Johnson, Tim Pool, etc who should be investigated. Drop your Western propagandists below ⬇️
I’ll keep adding to this thread and do a list of kremlin disinformation spewing politicians and Russian agents like Manafort. Now that Moscow is waking up I’m sure this thread will be attacked by Russian trolls and bots 🤷🏼♀️

Guess I have to yet again explain disinformation vs misinformation.
Misinformation is when someone unknowingly spreads false information while disinfo is the malicious intent of spreading lies.
What we are seeing on social media and by Trump and co, influencers, state actors is DISINFORMATION
To combat disinformation media and others need to understand it and label it correctly. Over a decade of insidious disinformation operations and I still see some in media say misinfo 🤦🏼♀️ including experts
And the KGB perfected and weaponized disinformation (aka dezainformatsiya, дезинформация) and why Russia uses it as a weapon
New evidence has emerged from The Insider that Russia did indeed offer bounties to kill US and coalition troops in Afghanistan.
A reminder that Trump downplayed and protected Russia in 2020 when the NYT broke the story
I have been anxiously waiting for a month for this new investigation to come out because the initial reporting in 2020 and the handling (ignoring bounties on US troops) of it made my blood boil
Musk’s X post backing the AfD sparks a firestorm, further aligning his actions with Moscow’s interests and deepening concerns about his threat to democracy. Also a short background on AfD
Waiting for MAGA at the lead of de facto president elect Musk to now stand with Iran. Insanity
The Iranians said the meeting between Mr. Musk and Ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani lasted more than an hour and was held at a secret location. The Iranians, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss policy publicly, described the meeting as “positive” and “good news.”
The most ridiculous part is how Trump and all his sycophants spread conspiracies about the Biden admin and Iran and a week after winning the election they are running to make nice with the Iranians. This despite the supposed assassination plots. Definitely something to monitor
In an interview, Russia’s former FSB head stated that Trump has to pay back a debt for his election win. What’s more telling is that in the same interview he ‘hoped’ US intelligence can prevent Trump from another assassination attempt. Such a mafia mentality from a thug responsible for countless assassinations
And for everyone posting about this with little know of Patrushev, he isn’t just Putin’s aide 🤦🏼♀️ he is KGB who later became the head of FSB and was responsible for blowing up buildings to get Putin elected.
