( Court cases here, not conspiracy: ) Republicans and MAGA cult members crying about fake news and election tampering. Here is the truth ,  verifiable and accurate: they are the fake news sources AND  the Russian hacker enablers. It serves their Christo-fascist goals of control. Jesse Benton, a Republican operative with ties to Trump’s campaigns, was convicted for arranging at least $25,000 in contributions to Trump’s campaign from Russian national Roman Vasilenko. It was $100,000, but he greedily pocketed $75K of it, so Trump left him hanging. He was found guilty of concealing it illegally and concealing its foreign origin. The small amount was all that could be 100% verified. The cash and mail bribes are an unknown amount. He was convicted on six counts (conspiracy to solicit/contribute as a foreign national, conduit contributions, falsifying records) in 2022. He destroyed most of the records that would prove even worse dealings. In April 2024, the appeals court upheld his conviction. Politico The case shows that some GOP operatives have been directly involved in shady foreign money routing tied to Russian sources (money that fuels propaganda, vindictive hateful digital ops, and influence campaigns aimed at the uneducated). In September 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice unsealed the indictment of two more Russian nationals (employees of RT, the Russian state media) for funneling at least $9.7 million into a Tennessee-based company (identified as Tenet Media). They created propaganda and fake news content pushing unverifiable narratives favorable to pro-Russian and pro-G.O.P. interests, especially as it relates to race and voter suppression. Russian propaganda agents paid right-wing influencers: Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Dave Rubin, and an A.I. and video effects team to create and distribute phony and doctored propaganda videos. 90% of the money came from Russian sources the bank records prove it flat out. This is obviously Trump but very hard to prove. The videos were ordered with explicit instructions to “divide and distract,” create strategies to justify attacking immigrants and  immigration, “white victimhood,” censorship, culture war issues, and were “consistent” with aims to sow discord and “riotous violence.” This is provable covert funding from a foreign state actor — Russia caught red-handed channeling money through “domestic” media actors and influencers. That is a troll farm or influence operation, with GOP election influence and hateful propaganda content. Good Ole Charlie Kirk was a tireless, hate-filled troll. He forced Turning Point USA / Turning Point Action to hire teenagers in Arizona to post coordinated attacks on Joe Biden and related topics on their own personal social media accounts. Some of those posts were identical (copy/paste), others were just petty, vindictive personal attacks aimed at youth and college students but also the elderly anyone who “may have been undecided or easily intimidated.” It got back to Charlie Kirk via right-wing lawyers. “Classic troll-farm playbooks: enlist many (often younger) people to amplify hate and racist, anti-gay messaging inauthentically.” Turning Point’s founder, Charlie Kirk, of course was given talking points to defend it, calling it “sincere political activism,” but the mechanics and scale put it clearly in troll-farm territory. It was an ever-expanding troll farm that got caught and shut down mid-stride. Those were amateurs though. Project Lakhta / Elena Khusyaynova – The Infrastructure of Troll Ops Elena Alekseevna Khusyaynova, an operative and  accountant based in St. Petersburg, was charged in 2018 with conspiracy to defraud the U.S. by interfering in the 2016 and 2018 elections. She managed the funds of Project Lakhta, a multi-million-dollar social media campaign, creating fake friend profiles, spreading hateful anti-Democrat misinformation, and sowing racial and class-based, hateful, unfounded bigotry and misinformation. Again, Project Lakhta is tied to the Internet Research Agency (IRA) and to Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin, who was indicted for funding and organizing election interference operations. The G.O.P. was aware and complicit on many levels. There is no way Trump would not have known and/or personally funded these hate-filled conspiracy theory screeds. Regardless of what's provable directly, the relevance of this is the clear politically backed infrastructure: Money laundering, fake accounts, propaganda ops that foreign influence campaigns use fake news and post that align with or amplify GOP messages of fascism and fear-mongering.

Their banks have little to no regulations and there is no separation between the banks and the state.
