James Angleton (Former chief of counter-intelligence at the CIA)
"It's my firm conviction that the existence of the Department of Disinformation has had much to do with a disarray of what I would call unity in the West.
I would also say it is perhaps least understood by the intelligence services and by their masters. And I speak from there from prime ministers down, and particularly secretaries of state, because it deals with gaining the objectives short of nuclear war. And it presents to the West by the various themes that it promulgates, what I call a wilderness of mirrors.
They can have you believe whatever they desire you to believe. And if you have, as they do, control over both, not both, but all forms of communication with the West, whether it be the media, diplomats, tourists, students, culture, all playing the same theme. That becomes a very convincing conglomerate of information to a man who's attempting to do an overall evaluation."
@JohnMappin It's over. The influence operation has been exposed. Votes passing the house right now for military aid and sanctions. You lost. You can stop with the bullshit now. It's tiring.
Is the debate over America First boiled down to a false choice? @OutLoudNews

🚨 The House just voted 216-204 to clear the final procedural step for the discharge petition to provide military aid to Ukraine and impose tough sanctions on Russia.
We will vote on final passage later tonight
This is our Churchill moment, and we must pass the test.
This is our Churchill vs. Chamberlain moment. Stand with good or stand with evil.
Ukraine is a democracy invaded by a dictator who wants to erase its independence, culture and people.
Ronald Reagan would stand with Ukraine and vote yes tonight. He would choose Churchill.
"I want nationalism. I want America to actually come first." — Candace Owens
She calls out attempts to blame shifting American sentiment on "Russian propaganda," mocking the idea that Americans are being influenced by Russian media.
"As if Americans can read Cyrillic, speak Russian."

Luna: No, I don't support more aid because right now, there is a peace deal. The Russians to my knowledge have agreed to that peace deal. It is the Ukrainians that are holding out—It’s Zelenskyy because he's concerned it will impact his potential upcoming election.
Host: Remind us of that peace deal. Does that include Ukraine giving up land?
Luna: Potentially yes

Candace Owens attended an event with the Taliban.
The same Taliban that murders Christians.
Yet she will tell you how much she cares about Christians. 🤡
Do you see the opp yet?
Great article. I actually started laughing because it is all so fucked up. How has this happened?
Active measures. That is how.
We let our guard down after '91, but they never took their foot off the accelerator. Not for a second. Things did not get better. They got worse. Much worse.
Now here we are, with literal Russian assets in government. At the same time, you have good government officials taking advice from Russian assets on social and alt-media, lowering the digital barriers and defences, and letting every influence op and information op from every hostile nation pour straight through.
Come on in! Hit us with the demoralisation, the propaganda, the chaos, the poison. No problems, everything is fine.
And if anyone complains, or wants to stop it, they are suddenly part of the "censorship industrial complex" and accused of "censoring Americans."
So here we are.
The barriers are down. The hostile ops are flooding in. Everyone is at each other's throat, you're being taught to hate your own country, hate your own history, hate everything about your way of life. The totalitarians are now the good guys, head choppers ain't bad, feudalism is great!
Is anyone willing to do a damn thing to stop this madness?
The stars of MAGA’s conspiracy podcast wing are posting about the glories of Moscow—and laundering Kremlin narratives, writes Park MacDougald. https://t.co/2sGlGnmYb9
I wrote for @TheFP on how Candace’s trip to Russia is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Moscow’s laundering of conspiracy bullshit through the MAGA media ecosystem
In today’s Vatnik Soup, we’ll introduce an American conspiracy theorist, podcaster & antisemite, Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO). She’s best known for spreading conspiracy theories, attacking Ukraine, promoting pro-Kremlin BS, and becoming a favorite of Russian state media.
