Where have we heard this before? The Biden administration is claiming that Russia has been actively interfering in the 2024 U.S. election by operating what it calls “sophisticated” campaigns to influence American voters.
Democrats claimed that the election of Donald Trump to the presidency in 2016 was the result of “Russian collusion.”
51 former and current intelligence officials assured us that the 2020 presidential race was nearly tainted by “Russian disinformation.”
Now we’re being told that the 2024 election cycle has been influenced by Russian opinion manipulation.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) isn’t persuaded by the latest claims of Russian interference and has called out the Department of Justice (DOJ) for targeting pro-Trump influencers.
Russian interference again says the Democrat’s DOJ..
Of course targeting Pro- Trump influencers..
With the Presidential election two months away..
This is the same administration that is on the verge of giving long range missiles to Ukraine, after funding hundreds of billions…

Greene points out the shady connections between the Biden administration and Ukraine that has seen hundreds of billions of tax dollars and weapons sent to Ukraine to prolong its conflict with Russia–a conflict Trump has promised to end in the interest of peace for both countries.
Greene says, this is why these claims are suddenly surfacing just two months before a presidential election.
At a press conference on Wednesday, Attorney General Merrick Garland said, “The American people are entitled to know when a foreign power is attempting to exploit our country’s free exchange of ideas in order to send around its own propaganda.”
But as Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) points out, the alleged interference by foreign actors pales by comparison to what U.S. intelligence agencies did when they lied about the Hunter Biden laptop going into the 2020 election.
Nothing in U.S. history comes close to the interference caused by the letter engineered by Antony Blinken (working for Biden’s 2020 campaign) signed by 51 intel officials falsely claiming Hunter’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” https://t.co/T4eL8qOzrr

There’s also the matter of one of the most blatant examples of election interference–the July 13 assassination attempt against former president Trump.
Why don’t these clear examples of election interference get the same kind of coverage as the accusations against the Russians?
American voters should take exception to any attempts to influence or manipulate their votes.
They just don’t expect their own government to be the ones doing it.
