Biden Administration Targets Russian Election Interference with $10M Indictments, Seizes 32 Domains
Sep 4, 2024, 10:59 PM
The Biden administration has announced a series of actions to counter alleged Russian interference in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. The Justice Department has indicted two employees of the Russian state media outlet RT for their roles in a scheme to influence American public opinion. The indictment alleges that RT covertly funded and directed a U.S.-based media company, Tenet Media, to disseminate pro-Russian propaganda through prominent right-wing influencers, including Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, and Dave Rubin, with $10 million. The DOJ has seized 32 internet domains linked to the disinformation campaign and imposed sanctions on individuals involved. Attorney General Merrick Garland emphasized the U.S. government's commitment to aggressively counter Russian efforts to manipulate the election, noting that Putin's inner circle directed the operation. The Treasury and State Departments are also taking enforcement actions as part of a coordinated, whole-of-government response.
