Why are you putting that in quotes when it was a real thing that resulted in indictments against 34 people and 3 organizations and siezed tens of millions of dollars of assets? Is your argument that we shouldn't have enforced the law?
- dumbledoren 2y ago> "indictments" An indictment is a formal charge or accusation. You can formally accuse or charge anyone with anything. It doesn't mean that any of the charges has any merit or are proven. And normally, nothing has come out of it. > siezed tens of millions of dollars of assets You can seize 'assets worth millions' from anyone. That doesn't mean anything either. The US constantly keeps doing that to its competitors' companies. All that the russiagate stampede produced was proof that a Russian media outlet paid for $150,000 worth of bad Facebook ads that pointed to actual American mainstream media news pieces about Hillary Clinton's laptop. Nothing fake, nothing illegal. But the russiagate excuse did allow the consultants and companies that advised the Clinton campaign to create the election disaster it suffered. They weren't the reason why the campaign flopped. It was Russia. Then the same clique of consultants sank Harris campaign just last year. This time it wasn't possible to blame Russia.
