Putin getting his candidate elected

Trump, Putin’s candidate.

CIA "Cooked The Intelligence" To Hide That Russia Favored Clinton, Not Trump In 2016. Russia didn’t fear Hillary Clinton. “It was a relationship they were comfortable with,” some CIA analysts believed, but intelligence was suppressed. On the fall of the last great Russiagate myth.

Putin and his massive influence upon America’s marketplace of ideas.

Do you save a copy of this response in a word file somewhere? I could swear just a few days ago I saw this same rebuttal to the same played out argument on a different post. I'll have to start doing the same.

Seems like something a Russian propagandist would have at their fingertips.

Dude, even your first link, Racket News, written my Matt Taibbi.

Taibbi began as a freelance reporter working in the former Soviet Union.

Such US corporate leftist stuff indeed.

Oh, did Taibbi catch Orc cooties for having been a reporter in the Soviet Union in the 1990s? This “guilty by association” garbage is what Russiagate conspiracy theorists live by, so I shouldn’t be surprised you might think so.

Such US corporate leftist stuff indeed.

Did you miss the part where I said, “US independent left- to centrist-liberal sources”? Taibbi is an independent civil-liberties focused liberal investigative journalist.
