The United States on Wednesday announced a broad effort to push back on Russian influence campaigns in the 2024 election, trying to curb the Kremlin’s use of state-run media and fake news sites to sway American voters.
The actions include sanctions, indictments and seizing of web domains that U.S. officials say the Kremlin uses to spread propaganda and disinformation about Ukraine, which Russia invaded more than two years ago.
Attorney General Merrick B. Garland on Wednesday announced actions by the Justice Department, including the indictment of two Russian employees of RT, the state-owned broadcaster, who used a company in Tennessee to spread content, and the takedown of a Russian malign influence campaign known as Doppelganger.

That’s funny because NYT is pro trump disinformation source as well.
How so?
The Petty Feud Between the NYT and the White House.
They also blindly published unverified stories and exaggerations about the october 7 hamas atrocities.

So you’re concluding that NYT is maga now because you don’t agree with how they covered Israel/hamas?
Jesus Christ.
Well that might be overstating it. But their constant attacks on Biden while staying silent on Trump is them not fighting fascism. Pretty standard for neoliberals. Maybe I shouldn’t single them out since I hate all the billionaire owned newspapers. THEY are the reason for creating the fertile ground that Trump could use with their decades and decades of shit reporting and disinformation and bias. They are the reason we can’t and won’t do anything against climate change.

I’m a huge Biden guy. Love him. NYT throwing him into the fire was fucked up but it did give dems a better shot at the White House in 2025. Unintended fortune perhaps, but Biden was losing it until he dropped out.
I sub to WaPo and NYT. Most of their stuff is fine but everyone once in a while you’ll get a jaw dropper. Hell, even CNN was coddling to Trump not long ago.
I’m a huge Biden guy. Love him.
How can you love someone who is so adamantly defending and enabling a genocide?
AIPAC has spent $100m influencing US elections this year to ensure their preferred candidates win and we are supposed to believe Russia is the threat?
Yeah, money is politics is bad. Also, foreign governments interfering in our elections is bad. You discovered the principle of more than one thing can be bad at once.
There are levels of bad, $100m in elections is by far worse
Seriously? Your response to this is a whataboutism. And the topic is regarding Russian disinformation campaigns. Was the irony intended?
Pointing out a more blatant and damaging form of election influence is not whataboutism.
It needs to be addressed because one is being blatantly ignored, and the one being ignored is the larger of the threats
The kleptocracy trying to get Trump elected (which means Palestine gets wiped out) is the less dangerous threat?
Yeah I’m good. Have fun reposting this same broken logic talking point I’ve seen multiple .ml accounts spewing today.
Less dangerous, are you fucking serious?
You’re sacrificing Palestinians to genocide that you are largely responsible for it being able to happen at all, and your argument is ‘Well it’s a less dangerous threat to me’.
Have some empathy.
If you haven’t noticed, Palestine is currently getting wiped out. I never claimed that Trump was a lesser evil or lesser threat because lesser evil or lesser threat does not exist
Both things can be true.
And only 1 is being addressed
Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of good.
No one’s talking about perfect, We’re only talking about a level playing field.
