1362 RUSSIAGATE: The Manufactured Reality? Inside the Deep State Narrative Machine

from Richard Syrett's Strange Planet · host Richard Syrett & Glassbox Media

What if Russiagate wasn’t merely a political scandal, but a case study in modern perception management? Tonight on Strange Planet, Richard Syrett speaks with author Drew Thomas Allen about intelligence leaks, media amplification, Crossfire Hurricane, the Steele dossier, and the growing fear that information itself has become the battlefield of the digital age. GUEST: Drew Thomas Allen is a political commentator, author, and host known for his deep dives into media manipulation, institutional power, and modern political warfare. In Clinton Hoax, Obama Coup: The Declassified Story of the Trump–Russia Delusion, Allen examines declassified memos, intelligence operations, FBI investigations, and the evolution of narrative management in the digital era, arguing that Russiagate exposed far more than partisan conflict.
