Harris Targeted in Insane Russia-Backed Crime Conspiracy
A website called KBSF-San Francisco News painted a horrible picture: According to the site, then–California Attorney General Kamala Harris hit a 13-year-old girl with her car in 2011, fleeing the scene before she could be caught or identified. The site included a video, credited to KBSF-TV, of a young woman in a wheelchair—the alleged victim, Alicia Brown—recalling the harrowing moments after their vehicles collided.
Except none of it appears to be real.
Behind the operation is John Mark Dougan, a former Florida cop who has since relocated to Moscow to work full-time inventing fake news sites in an effort to spread misinformation among American voters ahead of the 2024 election, according to the BBC.
Another site launched by Dougan, The Houston Post, accused the FBI of illegally wiretapping Donald Trump’s Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago. Other sites bore equally American names, including the Chicago Crier, Boston Times, and DC Weekly. According to the BBC, most of the stories posted on the sites were not necessarily fake, but rather poor copies of actual news items that had been reworked by A.I. engines. Some of the articles still sported the user’s instructions to the bot at the bottom of the text, at the time of the BBC’s investigation: “Please rewrite this article taking a conservative stance.”
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

So just another clownish sycophant.
Worse than that, he only joined forces with Trump after his own grasp at power failed. Were he experiencing more success, he'd still be launching the same criticisms as he did previously:
Quote:Despite recent public statements of support for one another, Trump and Kennedy, Jr., the two have expressed bitterness for one another in the past: In text messages obtained by The New Yorker earlier this month, Kennedy called Trump a “terrible human being” and said the former president was “probably a sociopath” while attending the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee last month.
After Trump called Kennedy a “Radical Left Lunatic” whose votes would be a “WASTED PROTEST VOTE” in April, Kennedy referred to Trump’s comments as “unhinged” and a “barely coherent barrage of wild and inaccurate claims” while calling Trump “frightened” to debate him.
Kennedy also said in April Trump “promised to drain the swamp” before he “filled his administration with swamp creatures” and “promised to protect our rights and then torpedoed the Constitution,” in addition to claiming Trump “ran up the biggest debt” in U.S. history during his presidency.
In May 2023, Kennedy said “UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES” would he join Trump on a presidential ticket, as their positions on issues and philosophies “could not be further apart.”
Q: What specific legislation will you commit to to make child care affordable?
Trump: Well, I would do that and we're sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Marco Rubio and my daughter, Ivanka… But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about that because the child care is, child care couldn't, you know, there's something you have to have it in this country, you have to have it... I want to stay with child care… So we'll take care of it. Thank you.

Right. He's tripping over his own dick to suck Trump's.

DOJ: Russia Aimed Propaganda at Gamers, Minorities to Swing 2024 Election
A 277-page indictment. unsealed this week, gives unprecedented insight into the goals, target audiences, tactics and resources the Kremlin is using.
This is "Project Good Old USA"
The plan was written in late August 2023 by Moscow-based company Social Design Agency. The company founder Ilya Gambashidze shared his plans with high-ranking officials in the Kremlin, and notes obtained by the FBI show Putin was among those being briefed.
Central to the plan was not trying to convince Americans that Russia was great, but to expose America's darkest fears
"They are afraid of losing the American way of life and the ‘American dream.' It is these sentiments that should be exploited," Gambashidze wrote.
The messages produced south to push racist and conspiratorial narratives that have taken hold in right-wing communities online in recent years, including a reference to the great replacement theory.
As well as using platforms like Facebook, Instagram and YouTube to push their narrative, Russian is now using Trump's own Truth Social, as well as Reddit which it calls the only platform that is “free from democratic censorship.”
The plan targets a very specific audience:
"The community of American gamers, users of Reddit and image boards, such as 4chan" described as "the backbone of the right-wing trends in the US segment of the Internet”
At one point, one Russian official said: "We need influencers! A lot of them and everywhere. We are ready to wine and dine them."
SDA keeps a list of 2800 global influencers and another list of 1900 anti-influencers.
While the plan has secondary goals like boosting support for the US to stop sending aid to Ukraine and making President Biden less popular, the main goal of Project Good Old USA is crystal clear:

Quote:An independent assessment by the congressionally appointed Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction found in 2022 that “the most important factor” in the collapse of the Afghan military was Trump’s withdrawal deal, “followed by President Biden’s withdrawal announcement,” which he made a few months after taking office in 2021.
