It's Raining [Russian] Indictments
from Narativ with Zev Shalev (Audio) Hosted by narativ
Narrativ Live discusses the US Department of Justice's recent indictments against a Russian influence network targeting the 2024 US elections. Notable right-wing influencers Tim Pool and Benny Johnson are implicated in a $10 million operation orchestrated by RT (formerly Russia Today) employees. The DOJ also addresses the Doppelganger campaign, which involved creating fake news websites to spread Russian propaganda. Concurrently, there has been significant global news, including the banning of Elon Musk's social network X in Brazil and the arrest of Telegram's CEO in France. Additionally, breaking news reports highlight a horrendous terrorist attack at a concert hall in Russia claimed by ISIS.
