    I would be surprised if there weren’t well placed Russian influence in most conservative media in the United States.

      Bingo. People keep saying how obvious because views aligned 100% with Russia (which, randomly, is like lottery odds). I have conservative friends who believe all that shit and they don’t follow any of these clowns. The amount of times they’ve regurgitated Russian propaganda to me verbatim is hard to comprehend, and I’ve been shouting this from the rooftops for the better part of 2 years. It was just so damn obvious. People who have never given a thought to news outside of the US all the sudden telling me about Nazis in Ukraine was just a little too on the nose.

      I’d bet my savings account this is just the tip of the iceberg.
