Spies reveal Russian plot to spread chaos with 'news' websites exploiting Covid-19, BLM protests and attacking BOTH Joe Biden and Donald Trump
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • New Russian fake news plot is detailed by U.S. intelligence after information is declassified, saying two former GRU spies now run trio of websites

  • Aim is to spread chaos and division, intelligence sources say

  • Three websites include articles calling Biden a 'puppet' and portraying Trump as a 'pirate'

  • Other articles tried to exploit Black Lives Matters protests and link violence to Democratic control of cities where it has happened

  • Stories echo Russian efforts in 2016 to exacerbate race relations in America and drive corruption allegations against U.S. political figures
Nobody noticed their impact in 2016, it was so small, so no reason to expect them to be more effective now that we’re on our guard.
