It’s laughable that Putin would sit next to someone and not know who they are.
He most definitely knows who she is. The man sits at hundred foot tables. Wont use a cell phone. He fears assassination at all times. Unbelievable
Margarita Simonyan and everyone else in Russia lives in Putin's shadow. She's very intelligent and important so Putin knows her.
It’s laughable you believe everything the US tells you
Exactly
Ironically Biden probably does this daily.
The weakness of most media, especially social media, focuses on “he said, she said” which is worse that useless revealing facts.
She doesn’t know what the Russian military is doing but knows what NATO has been doing “for years and years”? 🥴
So I assume it is vice-versa. Do you know that dirung Iraq occupation by US in 2003-06, 500k Iraqians were killed per lancet?
@@dmitryletov8138the western people always believe that they live in free society where they're the one who knows the truth about everything in the world but actually are the most ignorant about other parts of the world
She's a mouth piece for Putin now. Where have u been?
Should've asked her about those journalists who were killed, like Anna Politkovskia
We see in real time how it is going with Julian Assange. Why didn't you talk about him? EVER?
@@dmitryletov8138 Julian Assange, the person wanted for rape and other sexual crimes in Sweden? He should be extradicted to Sweden to stand court.
Julian Assange is still alive in a nice prison with video games and three solid meals a day
This is from 5 years ago? I hope there's some more recent information added to this report.
You’re smart to notice the date; you’d be even smarter to question why old news is being passed off as new news.
@@neoneherefrom5836 becuase its still relevant. there's dates on every report so i don't think they're trying to pass off anything.
@@neoneherefrom5836 Hillary asked to see it one more time lol
If you watched the entire thing, you would see it's a timeline of reports and the most recent one was in 2022, right when the Ukraine war started. Any new report will just be redundant. Russia is still fighting its cyberwar against the US and what it calls "The West"
@@neoneherefrom5836Oh wow thanks for letting me know I didn't watch the whole thing. I already knew Sixty minutes is fake.
Its amazing how many American Republicans love this channel
No better than Democrats loving CNN and MSNBC. It's literally no better.

No they don't
Well I know a few in FLorida@@notreally2406
Just like they love Fox news
What??? There is no free media in Russia. Why didn't Leslie call her out on her lies???
Her “whatabouts” matching perfectly with Trump’s.
Yup.
07:10 - a Russian using whataboutism fallacious arguments? I’ve never heard of such a thing! Oh wait… yes, yes I have.
US justice system is clearly based on whataboutisms - rule of precedents
1:00 they do there is none. Shes a real Russian. She cant imagine a world not as corrupt as Russia.
Sadly, She is not alone, In Russia 80% are in love in Putin, sad news.
@@iraklimgaloblishvili7047I can tell you more: in the whole world 80% of people think exactly like her.
I hope it is not true, i wish it was more like 0.8% : O @cookml
Lol said the Russian, “ I give you my word “🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
I'm surprised that state controlled media wasn't labeled as "Foreign agents" until now. In either country. Government controlled information meant to be broadcast in another country, has a higher than normal probability of being biased and serving its own interests.
They don't care
@@frozenlama23 I suppose because that would make many top rated networks also fall in that category. There's so much news out there, it's quite possible that it's coming from a source that should be labeled as such. Mostly social media and user-content streaming type outlets though. Mostly...
Impressive how the RT lady manages to work her way out of questions, it’s quite representative of the Russian misinformation strategy!
She's a Russian asset, I don't buy her story one bit!
Republicans learned it well
Everyone is fishy and suspected but the American media is applauded and believed wow
@@najibsalwe6873 You prefer Russian FSB propaganda spoon-fed by Putin.
She's just calling out the hypocrisy.
FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS SHOULD NOT EXPECT THE FREEDOM TO UNDERMINE OUR CIVIL INSTITUTIONS. FULL STOP.
CIA Coups in Iran, Guatemala, Congo, Dominican Republic, S Vietnam, Brazil, Chile….Countless CIA crimes/atrocities carried out on behalf of sitting US Presidents.
Yes, including AIPAC!!!
AIPAC =Blackmail Inc.
that what ruzzia does.... since forever ! they will not stop, unless stopped !
The fact that the Reporter is Using Facebook and Twitter as Reliable Sources says it all
3:56 and here we are five years later and she was right
She's right because of facts or because you choose to believe her?
Ask her to interview Russian citizens. See if they all have e same thing to say as she does.
The older population will blindly recite propaganda in support of Putin; the younger generation born after the fall of the Soviet regime are more inclined to have a more democratic (i.e., "Western") mentality.
That wouldn't happen, but if it did they would be carefully selected so no Truth could be had.
They'd all have the same opinion as russian state media if expressed outwards. Being critical of Russia in Russia is highly frowned upon and sometimes illegal
@@anacc3257or dead. A Gen who criticized Putin was found dead along with his wife. Putin said plane wreck was bc they had grenades on it yet satelittes proved he shot it down.
I watch Daniil 1420. He interviews mostly Muscovites on political issues. It’s amazing how informed they and how evasive they can be. Speaking against the government is punished by 15 years in prison.
I use to follow RT till I found out so much what they said was a lie. Than I blocked them off my Facebook ect
They got banned from KZhead. I use to follow them to hear the other's side of the storey. But after Ukraine. Their propaganda was terrible
@@jaymesninSame
Meanwhile your on the biggest platform of misinformation lol FACEBOOK !
Is it just me, or is this episode no longer about rt.
This is a Hit Piece. Our schools USA schools do not teach Kids to Think. Most in u.s. are so Dumbed Down . No Critical Thinking, going on here.😮
You can, and should not say that again. Fairly certain you are a graduate of that class.
It's truly astonishing to hear this artificially blond lady speaking so candidly, accusing the Russian boss of RT of something that America was unaware of the power of! The blond lady appears somewhat naive, seemingly ashamed of what Russia could do in 'manipulating' information, and this itself is a form of manipulation; a visual distortion. Let's not forget that we pioneered the internet, recognizing immediately the opportunity to reach every corner of the planet. Regrettably, we didn't pay enough attention to the fact that the internet is not a one-way street. As we export our perspectives to other countries, they, too, can share their news with America. Now, our surprise at this reality seems misplaced. We criticize any country limiting internet access and news circulation, claiming it's undemocratic, and that is precisely why we don't limit the internet. However, Twitter files revealed that censorship was applied to protect specific individuals close to those in power. So, whatever RT did in America, they didn't innovate; they merely applied what they learned from us. It's disheartening to witness sixty minutes persisting in their narrative of moral goodness and superiority.
“I’m afraid the election is going to be rigged” = I’m afraid I’m going to lose the election, so I’m going to claim it’s rigged, because my ego can’t handle losing.
Okay, Mr. Ivan the Hispanic Russian bot. We weren't born yesterday. You can even think of an original comment. That came from Moscow. You think we can't tell when some fake RT news channels targets far-Right clowns in America, Europe, and Latin America?
I used to follow RT on Facebook and I have to admit I couldn't agree more with 60 Minutes
I only watched On Contact with Chris Hedges
This is 5 years old. Russia is now a pariah state, RT is now absolutely the propaganda dept of Russia, with non state media folks removed.
It’s just not a worth it
Me too, for a couple of years around 2011-12. After comparing RT America and RT Germany (also Ruptly) I realised I'd been duped, they were just out to stir things up. Clever propaganda, very clever. No Soviet-style voices from an alternate reality, they'd just take what's already that and milk it for all it's worth, create a narrative that wasn't really there, make fringe groups look like they're the voice of the ordinary folk, stir up lots of anger, and create their own alternative "MSM" for idiots like me. It worked like a charm! For a bit.
I used to watch a lot of their videos and read articles when I was a teenager. They kinda fell off my radar. It makes sense to me though now looking back on it. Teenager me was thinking, "oh it's a foreign news source, maybe they'll be less biased about American politics." But I guess when it comes to American politics, everyone in the world pretty much has a stake.
Simonyev reputation self destructs when she opens her mouth....
We don’t need to start looking at people without seeing them as people. Defense is important to us as an American people and it’s sad to get shot past on some platforms but peace should always prevail over war… 🙏
You don't get it, this is war. This could have cost lives and still could. This was used to attack the Ukraine so actually it did cost lives of our allie along with direct military attack.
Then ask yourself why does usa invade my country new Zealand with its spy base 🇳🇿 but the Russians do not?
YER BAWZ!!!!
What? We DONT need to start looking at people as if they are people? Your comment is very confusing.
dinner pic of Putin= I don’t believe Putin would have anyone sitting that close to him that he didn’t know everything about.
Along with Jill Stein, too. What an uncanny coincidence
Yup. And now she's running again..
Well, Putin probably knew who this guy was. Let’s put this aside. The point 60 minutes were making is that sitting next to Putin made this guy ‘highly likely’ to be a traitor to US. And this is a stretch too far.
I follow rt just to keep tabs on what Putin is thinking
Keep our enemies close.

It's not an opinion when you lie... it's just a lie.
Wise people listen to both sides. Then you know the other side of the story.
Unless one side is lies and is used as a weapon against your own country. Putin is an aggressor, as was Hitler and his agencies seek to destabilize the Western Democracies.

So you're saying we should listen to Putin? You're kidding right?
just like someone says "don't read quran or you gona be islam" 😂
This reminded me when Putin said the West is hysterical about his plans for Ukraine.
That reminds me when Putin said he won't invade Ukraine 😅
The interview starts of with the interviewed person asking questions like she's doing the interviewing. Disinformation at it's best!
The interview starts with the interviewer Criticizing the person to be interviewed. Manipulation More as its best😏. Sometimes It is good to pay attention to the detail. Besides they were already talking before they started airing the interview. Leaving things out even better manipulation. Why is it interviewer blaming the other person labeling and shaming 'a force to reckon with.' That's for people who don't have a talking point. No name Shaming or name calling necessary

When I used to watch RT online, I kept in mind that THIS was the opinion and perspective of a foreign government. Our own government thinks we are all too stupid to recognize subterfuge all by ourselves. Many RT stories were an adversarial spin on the situations. But some stories were just free-reporting/actual journalism that MSM would not cover. They are definitely a foreign agent seeking a voice and influence in our culture. That should never be forgotten. But I also don't think they should be silenced. Silencing opposition is a Leftist fallacy these days and will NEVER be good in a free country. Russia should definitely ban our media in return as there is no doubt our News is political and biased these days. True journalism is DEAD in America. Ask any conservative seeming journalist ( they don't even have to actually be conservative btw) how hard it is for them to find a job in the U.S.. Elon is hated now for simply paving the road to free speech on Twitter. Our free press is a laughing stock of the world now. It's shameful that our younger generations are so misinformed they cannot even discuss issues without name calling and trying to silence dissenting views.
Except that RT was never that. RT was typically some of the best and often only credible reporting to be had. I used to watch RT online with the understanding that the Russian media company was the only one that would touch an important story and to not spin it in any particular direction. In a nation like the US with a hyper-corrupt govn't, media and industry leaders, no spin is necessary. An RT stringer could just stick a camera out a window and capture the proverbial trainwrecks surrounding them.
Well said. That is the balanced view. And RT always reminded us that they were sponsored by the Russian government. We don't know what shadowy figures sponsor our media !
There are endless conservative media organisations, most peddling lies. And Elon's twitter has become a cesspit of disinfo and hate.
Another typical UI for Russia. It's laughable your saying Dems are the ones silencing opposition. Which party is doing the book banning? Also you are the one that's saying silencing opposition is bad yet you say Russia should ban US media. You say RT should not be silenced yet Russia should ban US media. You should move to Russia where Putin murders his oppositions.
no, we should not allow a nest of foreign agents. They need to slip in only 10% misinformation and their job is done!
Private public collaboration is key to stopping cyber attacks.

This left me thinking of the expression 'The pot calling the kettle black'. If only our intentions were as pure and noble as often presented. We have learned to sing 'God bless America'. Sadly I am inclined to pray, God help America. Man-kind is significantly flawed, if only we could admit, the infraction of others that we abhor are often locked away in our own closets. God help us all.
It is because your god wants it to be so, so why do you bother him - don't you trust in his omnipotence and wisdom? 😅 On the serious note, whether democracy or dictatorship, they will never be pure. But you only need to step back to see the clear differences and making you think like that is the main goal of the russistan propaganda 🫶
28:35 just imagine USA and Russia being really good friends,the world would be a different place.instead of putting billions for weapons,invest in advanced technology sharing science and knowledge the world will be much more technologically advanced than we can imagine. I believe one day that will happen!
I agree, but I'm NOT holding my breath.
I would love to see the complete full unedited video of this interview! Everyone knows, or should know 60 minutes cut and edits their interviews! Sad Leslie!
Absolutely agreed great comment
Who doesn't cut and edit videos? Look at how maga tried to edit Jan 6 video to make it look like a peaceful demonstration. It doesn't make this reporting false, except to those who want to sow doubt. There's enough real information in this report. I just wish we knew how the USA responded to this attack. Just saying stop doesn't cut it for me. This information is also more than enough reason to continue to fund the Ukraine.
Ahh. The gaslighting right out of the gate.
I was with someone who's ID got confused with someone else's in another state in 2016. She had to wait a week for the other state to verify and correct the issue and then they took her vote late. I never knew that was even possible. What we were told is her ID was the same as a baby not even a year old yet in another state out west. Sadly, she passed away from complications with chrons but if she were alive I think she would of still talked about it.
Ppl should realize it is hard to have voter fraud except computers. Putin stated it helped Trump maybe this is what Putin was talking about? Ive got ppl working on my SSN.

So what is 60minutes in the scheme of things like CNN, BBC, MSNBC, ?. I fear those more than the Russian ones .
She talks a pretty good game on Western TV, but have you seen her rusky state media? Not even the same person.
The amazing thing about the manipulation campaign and the ignorance campaign is that you don't have to listen very hard to understand exactly what's happening what you have to do is understand how to combat it which is a bit harder without power but not impossible with people power
This is an older piece. It would be interesting to see if E. Musk has released the ban on RT ads on X. I don't use Twitter, but if you do, let me know pls.

Instead of denying accusations or defending against accusations with something of substance, this woman, Simoyan, makes unequal equivalences to argue and counter argue. I wouldn't trust anything she says.
You wouldn't anyway. Always verify, corroborate, and do your due diligence !
Such Gaslighting by Russia is not unexpected.
.Kinda like Russia russia Russia helped Trump get Elected? or Hunter Biden Laptop disinformation??

Why is people like you always have the same response. Whataboutism. The difference is America admits it’s faults and owns up them when confronted with evidence. Russia on the hand try’s its best to sweep everything negative under the rug and they lie so much that there’s at minimum 50% chance that the complete opposite of what Russia is saying is the truth.
it's not like Meta just gave Israel full access to control/edit/and change FB posts, and they didn't already delete 8000+ posts they didn't agree with.. oh wait, they did give them access just to hinder USA's freedom of speech and ability to think for ourselves

They actually weren't propaganda, though. The idea that they were is the ill-considered product of what amounts to a propaganda outfit itself- CBS.

Funny thing with you guys is that you believe any conspiracy theories but the real ones. Russian intelligence have been doing this all over the world for years.

Social media posts designed to inflame all sides of the political spectrum is another trait. It's a war for your opinion and emotion.

Yes the Russophobes never have any hard facts. Like for instance the rockets that killed 39 at a Russion evacuation site - railway station - were said by Western news to be Russian. Well that was true, however they were an obsolete type used exclusively by the Ukraine army.
Good grammar!
I watched RT. As a matter of fact several well known Americans were host on the show, when there careers ended in the U.S. I'm sure Russia looks for intelligent Americans to move to Russia and prosper in there country. I've seen regular non political, regular Americans leave this country and thrive in Russia. Speak the language, the whole thing. So, the propaganda campaign is more paranoia on the part of the U.S elite. In my opinion.
I live next to Russia. There is a reason why all wealthy people have moved their resources outside russia. There is a reason why educated people leave if they have the chance. Basically people who move there are going because of family/other relatives. No one regular moves there seeking a better quality life. Sure, if you are a millionare you can live well anywhere.

We, USA does PSYOPS, IE Disinfo ops as does every country…Welcome to reality amigo.😂😅🇺🇸✌🏻🍻
Fox News, CNN, MSNBC etc. are just as bad or worse at disinformation as RT
Let RT leave the US, who cares. What American in their right mind would watch it, no thank you! They can keep their dictator Putin, same goes for Xi and Kim. It's all cold now, but if they want to go hot, we'll ring their bell just the same and they know it. Thwarting and dividing America from within is their only move, for now.
This is crazy that your bringing this up again knowing it has been disproven
Right???😂
Disproven by what? If you claim that the evidence is insufficient that's fine, but that's not what disproven means. Somebody did it, you just don't believe it's the obvious elephant in the room.
Their primary argument is that they should be albe to present their argument as truth to people who don't care about truth but only about only how they can manipulate people to their perceived advantage, with emphasis on perceived.
Nobody can convince me that the color of crow is white ,period.
That comeback regarding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq...OOF
The US invasion of Iraq was declared illegal by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan on Sept-15, 2004.
Dismissing every western intelligence and media source because the american military once upon a time conducted a campaign based on faulty information isn't logical. That's what she's doing. Russia commits far worse crimes and regularly lies while doing so, I don't see her reporting on or having an issue with that.
This is very good. The thing is, as a keen observer of human behavior in my country, what people like Putin, Trump, Putin, Steve Bannon, Putin, Tucker Carlson, Putin know is Americans have a very short memory. Mostly because so many Americans don't know anything about their own history and guess what...they don't care they don't know. In fact they wear it like a badge of honor. If 60 Minutes really wants to do something to save our democracy, which the Chinese government believes is waning, is to publish this again and again and especially close to the presidential election next year.
Trump is a great at projection. When he accused China, it really was his cohort Putin. Putin showed Russia Jan 6 proving democracy doesnt work. Putin has now found out trump lied about what he owned for loans etc
Nobody in this country should be granted a high school diploma or G.E.D. with the ignorance level of so many Americans. Social promotion has eroded our nation; arrogant ignorance and gullibility and healthy democracy and true progress are not compatible.
Why are the 2 previous response hidden?
Not all Americans* there's plenty of us with sense left, we are just drowned out by the tik tok brains
The fact u believe this just shows ur ignorance do the slightest research an you will see the lies u have been told but do me a favor look at all angles of the story remember u won’t get real information if cnn msnbc and all the mainstream media’s synchronised reporting from government officials, I have no biases I live in Australia I have no need to lie I just have looked at all angels of the story an only one side is producing facts if trump did work with Putin he would have been exposed in the three impeachment trials they had nothing cause there was nothing

That RT leader is something else she knows how things could be for her country, but decides to take a lesser path for her own people. If that's not true evil I'm not sure what it is.
There is always someone who does the job as Putler wants it to be done... And the idea of fall from the window prevents misbehavior
in which capacity are you speaking for the russian people..??the early you understand russia the better for you,your mission here cannot succeed,slava russia
Everyone needs to realize That what their goverment does does not mean the people there agree with any hostility they might do.
People have their own opinions irrespective of their government’s official policies. News at ten.
Russia most corrupt country on earth and North Korea
My main comment says just that. I never even knew about that bombing. I feel like an idiot to admit that but I was in a traveling band and in the film industry. Didn't pay attention to politics like I do now. I was just going to look it up. So now ALL Russians hate America forever? Seems childish. That was a decision made by specific government people. I'm sure just like with Vietnam people here in US didn't like it. Most people adults today didn't have anything to do with it So they thought helping Trump get elected would help their country? How? He can't stay president forever. Or there will be a civil war. I just read someplace that even if he tried, the White House is owned by the people of the U.S Etc it and that no matter what he'd have to leave the building. They keep saying he'll try to stay in power, I just can't see how he'd pull that off. God help us if he tries. Again.
That RT spokesperson was reading from a well scripted playbook, every question asked by Leslie received the same answer "Yea and what about the American news media", Putin has trained his little puppy very well.
But it’s true 😂
Hypocrites always complain about "whataboutism". Because they also have no defense.
So what?
Exactly
They use whataboutism to the enth degree. That's Russian media's modus operandi.
This is to painful. Keep dumbing down our education system and see what happens.
If /when Trump is convict of Federal crimes, it would be fitting that his pardons of fellow conspirators be set aside as tainted, and those cases be revisited.
Yugoslavia didn’t exist in 1999. In 1999, Serbia was committing genocide.
And 60 minutes is not state run? And there is no collision between the US government and social media? ... Ah we're not stupid...
My question to 60 minutes is this, wasn't our media did/do the same in Russia??
Absolutely.
Is the bag of rice and bottle of vodka worth spreading laughable FSB propaganda and lies, Sergey?
Shhh ! You know they don't like their hypocricy being pointed out. They call it "whataboutism".
Does seems to me.
My husband visited the Soviet Union on a photography assignment in 1990, just before the breakup. He had a Russian speaking guide. He found people living like peasants. There was a noticable difference in the living conditions of the very wealthy and the rest of the population. In Moscow one day they came upon a line of people stretching three city blocks long. When his interpreter asked one of them what they were waiting for, he answered that they didn't know for sure. He'd just heard that they might have some canned goods and toilet paper. The shower in his so-called five star hotel didn't work, and hadn't worked for over two years. The streets were run by organized crime gangs, from which you could buy anything if you have the money. His camera was almost taken by force twice, and it was only prevented by a fast talking interpreter and a ten dollar bill. Very few people had telephones and the wait time for a phone was an average of five years. Supposedly, things have improved, but a friend of ours was there just before the Ukraine war broke out, and he told us that very little had changed. I imagine that this young woman had a very nice life, so it's no surprise that she would defend her country and the Putin regime. However, the majority of the population is living in abject poverty. Yes, we have poverty in this country as well, but compared to Russia, it's no contest. I wish that she would have asked her about the Russian Oligarchy.
You do realise that much of what you describe above is now also fully applicable to life in the US for huge percentages of people. I know friends whom recently visited and went on an extensive holiday in Canada, and then onto the US. They could not believe what they saw in the US with cities filled with homeless people living in deep poverty and massive drug abuse issues and one of the worst drug death statistics in the world.Indeed the US has one of the worst stats in the world for having a few ultra rich people , and millions living in deep poverty. The gap between rich and poor in the US is massive. So as the saying goes, ''don't throw stones when you live in a glass house''
My son visited Russia a few years ago and enjoyed his stay immensely..people were friendly ..spaces clean ...its not how you describe..I think you're biased ...

The original commenter sounds completely ignorant of her own country! In Flint Michigan residents were poisoned by the drinking water. On skid row there is a tent city of homelessness. 😅 It's hard to fathom the arrogance of people in my country who speak of other nations but have no idea what is happening within their very own. To the original commenter, please, stop making us look so ignorant!
@@dianebeckett7494nice people? Where? Hahaha dude I went and nobody ever smiled. Super rude all the time and customer service was atrocious.
Thank-you...
Oh that's just what we need, Homeland Security (executive branch) running US elections. Boy that'll assure democracy. Might as well just have one party.
We may well have one party in the upcoming years. maga has ruined itself over it's abortion policies as well as other overreaching such as denying the will of the voters in maga controlled states. maga has been losing elections for the GOP since 2016. Now the mega donors want nothing to do with maga anymore and the GOP on t he state and national party levels are not able to raise the money they need. According to McConnell, the only way the GOP can win is with mega donors and gerrymandering. Even when they had those, the mega donors are gone now, they're still losing elections, even in deep red states. Bye bye GOP
It is sad to see in our very own country that so many American citizens even many politicians on the right mostly but some on the left as well believe Russian propaganda. There is no real solution because disgruntled citizens now don’t want to hear the truth but instead cling to the lies of those that seek to sow distrust in our government and America as a whole. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord and will continue to stay patriotic Americans. God Bless America and I pray for our great country.
God does not exist.
@@juguetescoleccionables4730 I am entitled to my beliefs sir as you are to yours. Happy Thanksgiving and hope you have a wonderful holiday season.
I love 60 minutes
I love RT
@@joetatoesniff9525 I love them both 🤣
I love RT
I'll say one thing without warranting conflict. You are good. Really good. Great job 👍👏 ttyl
None of them tell us the truth NONE OF THEM.
I think you also need to investigate AIPAC influence on US politics 😅😅😅
You can easily tell when RT is telling a lie because her lips will be moving.
If you're American & take RT at face value, hold this L.
You can just tell how amazingly defensive she is in this interview and presenting irrelevant facts. The same way Trump lawyers are on the defensive…
And Trump himself, mind you.
R/T Gaslighting
Tell me how RT is any different from Fox News or CNN?
@@SvPVids RT has their government breathing down its metaphorical neck all the time and no Constitutional law to help them fend it off.
Where do you think she learnt that from ?
Ive never heard of RT. But from what I've seen on this video clip, eveyrything they've said about the US and its policies are fact. So what's the problem?
if you think that then you don't understand the definition of fact either willfully or maliciously.
@awake3607 I do enough digging and spend considerable time looking up all the fake news that the US govt and its media cook up to hide corporate agenda. They're all corrupt to the core and we're lucky to have few media houses, independent and corporate that still tell the truth so we see the truth and light of day. And frankly I'm surprised at this day and age at any tart who still sees US govt and their policies and activities as anything worthy of being decent. I can always read the room because now they're all stuck in their programming which is easy to read. The only ones who don't see it are delusional muppets that don't want to believe that they're supporting a terrorist, entitled, hypocritical, imperialistic, greedy, corrupt, evil regime that makes the average bad governing bodies of the world look like saints. Disgusting. I left the US after waking up and smelling the beans with the scam Iraq War and the following ongoing need to fight unecessary wars all over the world for profit. And the hijacking of media houses. It only ends when everyone stops their slumber and wakes up. Spend some time everyday researching global events and news, you'll know better. You can even avoid the Russian biased stuff and still know better.
In other words...they'd say anything except their prayers!
“Russian democracy” 🤣
She is good at lying , But she acutally thinks Putin would sit next to someone he didnt know? Right.
Lmao the sheer insolence of the cia agent who made this title.
I plead the blood of Jesus on this entire situation ❤
Good for you, Leslie - staying on track against a bully and a liar, pants on fire.
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🗑️ TALK ....THE 2BLE.STANDARDS OF USA AROUND THE PLANET
This woman I’m sure not lying .. Our country has become an embarrassment
Yes! Putin's Russia is an embarrassing fascist dictatorship. You should move as soon as possible.
Because of Biden!! He is sooo embarrassing
she's a professional liar, so not surprised she fooled you
She dismisses the Mueller report? Hahahaha
