National Rally has been playing defense since a media story revived accusations of ties to Moscow.
France’s far-right National Rally says a new report on Russian interference in French democracy is part of a “cabal” against the movement, after a Washington Post investigation revealed Moscow’s efforts to promote “political discord” in France and undermine support for Ukraine through “political figures and social media accounts.”
“Let’s be serious, this is a cabal,” National Rally MP and spokesperson Laurent Jacobelli said in a radio interview on Tuesday, claiming the newspaper’s report, which quotes Kremlin documents, insufficiently lists its sources and unfairly draws ties between Russian troll farms and France’s main far-right political force.
“This is more akin to gratuitous accusations than journalistic work,” he added.
Step 1. Russia admits it’s losing the war in Ukraine… Continue to send Russian men to the meat grinder because Putin gonna Putin.
Step 2. Make tentative pacts with Iran, North Korea, and China (On the down-low) to provide equipment and continue funding the war.
Step 3. Apply leverage to compromised GOP assets to halt U.S. war funding.
Step 4. Supply Iran with Intelligence gained from compromised and twice-impeached U.S. President Donald Trump about how to attack Israel, and convince them to provide that to Hamas to provoke a war.
Step 5. Continue back-channelling with China to increase threats or even encourage invasion of Taiwan.
Step 6. Hope that the U.S. has to use war funds to choose between protecting Taiwan, supporting Israel or supporting Ukraine.
Step 7. Ramp up support for far-right candidates in key Ukraine-supporting allies elections, including U.S. France and Germany.
Step 8. Attempt to win war of attrition against Ukraine as funding/manpower dries up for Ukraine.
Agreed. If it’s working, they have no reason to stop. We need those with good bullshit filters to increase in number.
Spot on! Malcom Nance does a great job explaining this in his book “The Plot to Destroy Democracy: How Putin and His Spies Are Undermining America and Dismantling the West”
