COLLUSION!
I another time, this would have been called a “fifth column”, the activation of sympathizers with the known enemy within the country the enemy has targeted. These “sleeper agents” have worked themselves into a position of wealth and influence, and exercise that wealth and influence to subvert and cause chaos within the country, while working with signals from the enemy, to position and impede efforts to root them out of positions of wealth and influence.
None dare call it treason.
