Apparently some right winged youtubers are getting arrested for taking money from Russia.

Lauren Southern, Lauren Chen, Tim Poole, Dave Rubin are "just" four of the people implicated in the scheme, the DOJ alleges that some of them were paid 100,000 per video. They admitted it but claimed didn't know the money was coming from shady videos but the information in the indictment says that Lauren Southern made private messages that said "I wonder when Russia is going to pay us" and checking the time in Russia on Google. So she knew for sure at least.

@LordShadowfire Sporty Spice on my other thread posted a meme about Democrats supposed obsession with the Russia Trump collusion. I found it funny because it's literally evidence that while Trump may not be knowing of Russia's meddling, it sure does speak volumes when they funnel 8 million in funds to these people to promote trump and pro Russian sentiments.

To make things even more weird is right wingers open support of Putin on numerous social media outlets so yeah.

I found for the fact he shared this meme unironically was hilarious and sent me ☠

@Burnley123 Agreed. It's easier for Russia to help trump win because he's also said that he's against sanctions on Russia on top of the war with the Ukraine.

I feel like with these right wingers, there's a neon sign somewhere that points to all the obvious things and yet they still fail to miss it. I'm sorry but as much as I know these influencers were used, there's something to be said about being willfully ignorant instead of just ignorant. Deep down you have to know.

@Burnley123 He can claim all he wants, the evidence that Russia interfered in his favor is very strong. Although never charged, I suggest that you actually read the report, don't just accept what Barr and other Trump followers said it said!
