1/13 It's amazing to see Western influencers being revealed as paid russian disinformation agents, but this is merely the tip of the iceberg. Fun fact: they all support Trump and work against Democrats. Coincidence? I don't think so!
2/13 TENET media and its content creators are facing scrutiny after being exposed as disinformation agents funded by russia to promote pro-russian rhetoric.
3/13 Tim Pool, Dave Rubin, Benny Johnson, and Lauren Southern are the influencers associated with Tenet media. The organization received $10 million to disseminate Kremlin talking points in the United States.
4/13 The ironic part is that the shared factor among these individuals is that they are all paid by russia to criticize Democrats and support Trump. This serves as further evidence that russia is attempting to facilitate Trump's election.
5/13 Many more individuals, including some close to Trump, are likely on russia's payroll while supporting him. Trump himself could potentially be a russian asset or, at the very least, an opportunistic useful idiot.
6/13 This is merely the tip of the iceberg. There are numerous other instances in the West. Every country has its own russian disinformation agents, and I hope many of them are exposed in the coming months.
7/13 German author and journalist Hubert Seipel, based in Moscow, was caught less than a year ago for accepting €600,000 in exchange for his pro-russian rhetoric.
8/13 Scott Ritter, an American convicted pedophile and russian disinformation agent, has reportedly terminated his collaboration with russian media today due to sanctions. He is a clear example of a russian asset in the US.
9/13 There are numerous other cases that require investigation. Individuals like Douglas Macgregor, who consistently echo Kremlin talking points and oppose their own country regardless of the circumstances, are among those who need to be looked into.
10/13 Tucker Carlson is another individual that the US is likely investigating at the moment. Those associated with TENET Media were instructed to promote his videos showcasing shopping in russia.
11/13 Some of these individuals are useful idiots, while many deliberately turn a blind eye, and others are genuine disinformation agents. Ultimately, the distinction is not significant. Most of them are aware, but it can be challenging to prove that they are.
12/13 russia seeks to exploit Western freedom of speech to create divisions within our societies and erode trust in institutions. They have been remarkably successful in this endeavor, which is why it is crucial to investigate all cases like TENET Media.
1/8 Russian intelligence always finds a way to completely screw up.
They recently tried to build an untraceable new hit squad, but got caught because their top operatives literally typed their secret assassination plans into Google Translate
2/8 A new investigation by Insider and Der Spiegel reveals that Russia created a top-secret hit squad called Center 795, after earlier assassination units were exposed.
They embedded it inside the Kalashnikov arms company, hoping it would be untraceable
3/8 This was not just a small team.
Center 795 functioned as a private shadow army funded by billionaire oligarchs.
They had cyber teams, sniper units, drones, and even their own heavy equipment to conduct sabotage and massive military operations
1/7 Remember when the 2024 Trump campaign was sold as the ultimate pro-peace ticket?
Tech oligarchs and political opportunists swore they would end America's wars.
Now they are the architects of a new war in Iran.
The hypocrisy is staggering 🧵
2/7 Look at the political roster.
JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, and Pete Hegseth spent years railing against regime change and foreign interventions.
Today, they are all sitting in the administration overseeing a devastating, open-ended conflict in the Middle East
3/7 Then there is Stephen Miller.
Before the election, he warned that Democrats and neocons would start WWIII.
Now, as Deputy Chief of Staff, he is actively celebrating the bombing of Iran, praising the military for finally fighting a "politically incorrect" war
1/10 If the last few days of Iranian strikes on Dubai have proven anything, it’s that a massive number of people completely despise the city and those living there.
And honestly? There are very good reasons to despise them.
A thread on the city of hypocrites 🧵👇
2/10 Right now, the UAE is running a pathetic paid propaganda campaign.
They have enlisted some of the worst internet grifters, including Andrew Tate, to desperately pump out the message that "everything is under control" while the region is literally at war
3/10 Spoiler: Everything is not under control.
No matter how well your air defenses are working, you cannot claim "everything is fine" when ballistic missiles and kamikaze drones are smashing into your luxury hotels.
