When President Biden proposed an additional $24 billion in supplemental funding for Ukraine in August, Moscow spin doctors working for the Kremlin were ready to try to undermine public support for the bill, internal Kremlin documents show.
In an ongoing campaign that seeks to influence congressional and other political debates to stoke anti-Ukraine sentiment, Kremlin-linked political strategists and trolls have written thousands of fabricated news articles, social media posts and comments that promote American isolationism, stir fear over the United States’ border security and attempt to amplify U.S. economic and racial tensions, according to a trove of internal Kremlin documents obtained by a European intelligence service and reviewed by The Washington Post.
One of the political strategists, for instance, instructed a troll farm employee working for his firm to write a comment of “no more than 200 characters in the name of a resident of a suburb of a major city.” The strategist suggested that this fictitious American “doesn’t support the military aid that the U.S. is giving Ukraine and considers that the money should be spent defending America’s borders and not Ukraine’s. He sees that Biden’s policies are leading the U.S. toward collapse.”
The documents — numbering more than 100 and dating between May 2022 and August 2023 — were provided to The Post to expose Kremlin propaganda operations aimed at undermining support for Ukraine in the United States, as well as their scale and methods. The files are part of a series of leaks that have allowed a rare glimpse into Moscow’s parallel efforts to weaken support for Ukraine in France and Germany, as well as destabilize Ukraine itself. -excerpt

This information must really have the pro Russia/Putin crowd in a tizzy. THey have jumped on this thread like flies on poop. Check out the vast number of odd KEYWORDS listed under the thread’s description. Be sure to read some of them, they are really something. That is the biggest number of odd Keywords I have ever seen listed for a thread on this subject.
Oh, she’s been sliming other people’s threads with her spam, hoping to hide from all of us who are on to her, and from Jim who has asked her to cut back on the propaganda.
I guess she realized the futility of that little trick and has gone back to spamming out in the open. For now, anyway. :)
Would you please add me to this ping list?
Absolutely.
Your welcome kit will be delivered to you by FedEx.
Enjoy!
Great.
But the matter remains: why do I have to fund it, and why is it my problem?
I live in the People’s Democratic Socialist Workers Paradise of NY.
I have plenty more problems than I need, I don’t care about a Eurozone problem.
FR just keeps burning it's credibility.
It’s fun to mess with them.😉
No, I didn’t say that.
What about those who make up obvious lies and gaslight?
Some of the stuff that qualifies as argument and debate by the pro-Russian side is truly shocking. I can't even take this site seriously anymore. We have management complaining about pro-Ukrainian propaganda when the Russian side has been calling people who support Ukraine "global-homo", "Nazis" and every filthy name in the book.
We have had people blame everyone but Russia. Apparently the Orange revolution was America's fault and Russia is some sort of savior.
I have disagreed with people before, but not even far left abortionists have been as cynical and evil as some of the pro-Russians here.
I am sick of their tactics. I am sick of their lies. There is no tactic that is beneath them. There is nothing perverted or underhanded enough that they won't use it. No matter what you say, they are determined to deflect through the most dishonest way possible. There is no religious system in the world that wouldn't recognize them as belonging to the depths of hell.
Thank you for saying that.
Yes, the Putin apologists are disgusting - both in their tactics and their world-view... yet they are allowed to bully everyone, without any consequence.
And the people running FR wonder why their donations are down.
When Putin demanded that the U.S. rule out Ukraine as a future member of the NATO alliance, the U.S. mischievously replied: NATO has an open-door policy.
In the 2008 Bucharest declaration, NATO had put Ukraine and Georgia, even farther east than Ukraine, on a path to NATO membership and coverage under Article 5 of the treaty.
Unable to get a satisfactory answer to his demand, Putin invaded and settled the issue. Neither Ukraine nor Georgia will become members of NATO. To prevent that, Russia will go to war, as Russia has done.
Putin did exactly what he had warned us he’d do.
Whatever the character of the Russian president, he’s established his credibility.
When Putin warns that he’ll do something, he does it.
Are you paying attention?
“And the people running FR wonder why their donations are down.”
How do you know this? Last FReepathon was successful.
No matter, I’m sure you have donated...
Because of all the bandwidth you use.

If it weren’t for copying and pasting stuff from the Ukrainian Ministry of Propaganda and google, mommy would be at a loss for words.
So It has that going for it. LOL!
You mean like saying that everyone who opposes the war adventure is a Russian troll?
See post 61 for zeeper lies proving my post 48 correct.
You’re welcome.
First of all, I'm not debating someone who cuts and pastes the crap they post. Why would I? It's like trying to debate plagiarist Joe Biden. I have higher standards than that. And as far as my being anti-Ukraine, I guess you've missed in all my comments where I said I don't give a $hit about Russia or Ukraine. You need a reading comprehension class.
Sounds like you need a Whambulance!!
How much you wanna bet that Dat is yet another foreign poster upset that uncle stupid USA won’t fund their pet cause that they use to replace a personality with.
