The Department of Justice says that Russia is again interfering with the U.S. election through media outlets such as RT.
Russian election interference. Stop me if you think you’ve heard this one before.
The U.S. indicted two employees of RT and sanctioned the editors because they say that they used Russian state funds to disseminate information that was favorable to Russia.
Why would information favorable to Russia interfere with the U.S. election? Russia is not on the ballot. This requires some kind of stretch whereby you believe that a certain candidate would be more favorable to Russia and therefore Russia is manipulating you to thinking highly of the country and therefore asking you to vote a certain way. That narrative broke apart in 2016 by the Clinton campaign and the Steele dossier so it is almost a cliche to use it again but they are using it again.
So which candidate would Russian President Putin favor if he were indeed to manipulate U.S. voters? When asked about this, he said Kamala Harris.
