Moscow-based Aleksandr Viktorovich Ionov, the head of the Kremlin-funded Anti-Globalization Movement of Russia, allegedly worked with the Russian Federal Security Service to carry out a “malign influence campaign” on US elections, the DOJ wrote in a statement.

OK? That has nothing to do with these 4 Americans.....and the Russians do what the CIA's been doing for generations. That should come as no surprise.

In July (2022), prosecutors accused Aleksandr Viktorovich Ionov of recruiting political groups in Florida, Georgia and California and directing them to spread pro-Moscow talking points with the backing of the Kremlin.--- NYPost

The Russian agent from this case below has popped up in the news again with charges against another bunch of black communists.

A Florida socialist political group defended its relationship with Russia after the FBI alleged Kremlin agents teamed up with the organization in a "brazen" attempt to undermine US elections.

Federal agents on Friday raided St. Petersburg's Uhuru House — the headquarters of the socialist pan-African political organization — in connection with the alleged election interference conspiracy, the Tampa Bay Times reported. (Excerpt) Read more at businessinsider.com ...

Still no charges against 50 former intelligence officials.

Well, that's different.

"Because reasons".

You are a troll.
This Russian agent and the people he recruits were connected to the burning of Ferguson, Missouri.
He is also connected to a netball named Louis Marinelli, who is also connected to the group Uhuru House. Along with Democrat Xavier Becerra and Obama’s pal Eric Holder, they were trying to squeeze more electoral votes out of California for the Democrats.

They are communists, working for Putin.

[piasa]

Louis Marinelli resides in Moscow, by the way.

[piasa]

No, they are not. They are working for a foreign country like the late Ron Dellums was. Same foreign country, for that matter, as the communist Democrat Dellums. If they weren’t registered as foreign agents for Ivan there, they are in violation of the law.

[piasa]

You support the burning of Ferguson Missouri? They did.

[piasa]

Who do you think recruited them? Do you even bother to follow the stories you post?

Romain heads a group called Black Hammer. Ever heard of it?

[ronnie raygun]

Those in our own FBI are still walking free

[falcon99]

True. But seems like this Administration are really only interested in going after Russia supporters, not Chinese supporters when it comes to meddling in our elections. Wonder why that is.

What was criminal about it?‘
I agree , millions of people are sowing discord, there is no right to be protected from discord.. maybe they are not u s citizens

There were times where I expressed schaudenfreud for the karma some experienced, not moral but not illegal. (“There are consequences”.)
I would never encourage any destruction because the repairs come out of my pocket every time.
If they were directly involved, they should be prosecuted.

"recruited"? Where does it say they were "recruited"? Where does it say they were paid? Did YOU even bother reading the article before shooting your mouth off? Apparently not.

[FLT-bird]

No, they are not. They are working for a foreign country like the late Ron Dellums was. Same foreign country, for that matter, as the communist Democrat Dellums. If they weren’t registered as foreign agents for Ivan there, they are in violation of the law.,/p>

"working for"? OK. Where's the evidence they were paid? Where's the evidence they were acting under the direction or control of anybody in Russia?

Near as I can tell it is you who is the troll here. There is no evidence presented that these people were paid by Russians or under the control of Russians. But of course anything for more Neocon warmongering eh? That seems to be your only motivation on this board. Along with several other newcomers who mysteriously showed up a year or so ago....ie trolls.

It isn’t tyranny. They failed to register as foreign agents.

Unless and until they provide evidence that these people were in the employ of Russians - something they have not provided thus far - this is tyranny. The things they allege are not crimes. They are the right of any American as per the first amendment.
