U.S. Accuses Russia of Spending Millions to Influence American Voters
The Wall Street Journal ^ | Sept. 4, 2024 | Dustin Volz

Posted on 09/05/2024 7:44:07 AM PDT by horsappl

Responding to the Biden administration actions, RT said Wednesday in a mocking email that “2016 called and it wants its clichés back,” and “Three things are certain in life: death, taxes and RT’s interference in the U.S. elections.”

“For us, this is not funny,” Garland said in response. He added that advances in generative artificial intelligence and other evolving tradecraft had made Russia increasingly sophisticated in its election-influence operations.

“Therefore, it is a bigger threat than it ever was before,” Garland said.

So what does he think about China? Do they have any technology improvements? Why does he think Russia has such tremendous technology compared to China?

Two observations:
1. DemWits are totally bereft of any new ideas.
2. DemWits know their voters are stupid as dirt and will swallow any lie they tell. #RussiaRussiaRussia

This is completely unacceptable.

There is only room enough for one foreign country to have advocates embedded in American media/news/big tech to spread their propaganda and it ain’t Russia. (it’s the one with people embedded in the banks, intelligence agencies and a handler in every congressional office)

51 former intelligence agencies say they are using Donald Trump and the Hunter’s laptop is fake. The Secretary of State who is negotiating the Israel Hamas surrender says so. //sarc//

Congress shall make no law . . .

The Russians have as much right as anyone to support whatever candidate they want; as long as they don’t vote.

Well that’s because Tim Walz is China’s technology to influence elections.

As the unelected and elected class of US Government bureaucrats spends $500 Billion to influence US elections to suit their purposes.

So I'm not real clear on just who the bad guys are? Well, actually I do......and it's not Russia.

Obama spent billions on rigging elections in Israel alone. It was one of his pet goat projects.

Don’t be surprised if they start arresting people. More people, one should say.

“Therefore, it is a bigger threat than it ever was before,” Garland said.

If that is true, Mr. Garland, then it means you are a complete failure at your job and should be fired, TODAY.

Putin said he’s supporting Harris recently......

‘Firstly, (US President Joe) Biden recommended all his supporters support Mrs Harris,’.... Putin said during a question and answer session at Russia’s Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok.

‘Here, we are going to do that too, we’re going to support her,’.... he added...

‘She laughs so contagiously that it shows that everything is fine with her,’.... the Russian leader said, as members of the public laughed.

’ Trump has imposed as many sanctions on Russia as any president has ever imposed before, and if Harris is doing well, perhaps she will refrain from such actions.’
