The US intelligence & propaganda machines dwarf those of all other states, just as the US military dwarfs those of all other states. And they don’t only direct it at other countries, they direct it inward, too. “Russiagate” was a domestic psyop directed at its own people, to manufacture our consent to censorship.

The US most definitely uses its surveillance and propaganda system to influence the public. This was all exposed a long time ago.

The thought that Russia influences AOTUS is a conspiracy is probably one of the more bonker things I have ever heard though.

For sure stories were made up but anything short of of acknowledging that Russia has financially supported and heavily influenced everything about the current administration is pure conservatard garbage.

I am not sure what you were trying to express with that. Half the articles show how Trump has supported Russian interests to the detrament of the international community.

It is clear you have not even taken the time to read your own articles. I am guessing you push so much conservtard bullshit it is impossible to keep up with the lies.

There is no doubt Russia heavily influences Aotus. Just the simple matter of bank rolling him demonstrates all you need to know.
