Right-Wing Influencers Tied to Russian Disinfo Campaign Say They Are ‘Victims’
After the Department of Justice issued an indictment Wednesday accusing Russia of using American right-wing commentators to peddle propaganda ahead of the November election, several public figures linked to the scandal have spoken out, claiming that they are “victims” of the alleged influence operation.

According to the indictment, two employees at Russian state media RT have been secretly funding a Tennessee-based media company with nearly $10 million, laundered through foreign shell entities. The company allegedly paid some commentators hundreds of thousands of dollars a month to make videos—mainly about political issues—for its platforms, and the two RT employees allegedly deceived the commentators about where the company’s funding came from.

Benny Johnson, a 37-year-old former BuzzFeed plagiarist-turned-conservative commentator with nearly 2.4 million YouTube subscribers, wrote on X that a year ago his company negotiated a “standard, arms length deal” with a media startup that was later terminated. Johnson is a regular host on Tenet videos, with his latest video published on Wednesday.

    Benny is not in pb's top ten.


  3. by Curt_Anderson on September 5, 2024 3:23 pm
    But you have linked to Benny more than once as I recall.

    HtS, how much are you paid to post here? You can express that amount in rubles or dollars, whatever is more convenient.

    That reminds me... I've been meaning to ask what happened to Robert? He must have been getting paid by Biden this time because it sure seems like he disappeared the same day Joe dropped out.*



    *Or, if you're a Repub... the day Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris slipped into the Oval Office while Joe was preoccupied watching the wallpaper... kidnapped him, took him to that secret room underground they had in White House Down and tortured him by repeating "Say it aint so, Joe!" in non-stop highpitched sing-song until he couldn't take it anymore and signed over the presidency to Kamala.

    "But you have linked to Benny more than once as I recall."

    H€ek. I've probably linked 50 right-wing commentators and podcasters.

    Hate is an Equal Opportunity Right Wing Bullshitter. He's open and inclusive of all forms of flaming right wing bullshit.

    Openness and inclusion, acceptance, diversity, tolerance, freedom and love.

    Curt- according to you, it's impossible to have that information, and it's all hearsay. So I'm really not sure why you posted such a lie? It doesn't make sense. Oh. Yeah. You're a good little german and all you do is "follow orders."

    OD,
    Did you not notice the word "allegedly"? Or that I attributed the Putin stooge accusation to the DOJ? On top of that, Benny Johnson and his fellow rightwing podcasters claim not to be "victims" of RT, so they are not even denying the allegations that they were spreading Russian disinformation.


  10. by HatetheSwamp on September 6, 2024 3:21 am

    OD,

    Does it fascinate you that, since KK released that ridiculous economic plan,... which mimics Stalin, that, suddenly, GOPs and conservatives are Rusky pawns.

    Wokes, like Curt and po and Donna don't know how to laugh, but they are funny. Baha
