'With Trump’s return... the admin. moved swiftly to gut the system and punish the officials who had investigated Moscow’s intervention. Whatever the (his) motives, each step served Moscow...' 🇷🇺 Article by @juliacurlee.bsky.social cc @dpounder.bsky.social @fergdawg.bsky.social

Julia Curlee@juliacurlee.bsky.social

Moscow paid nothing for that, and he used the power gained from foreign help to blind and disarm his own country. As I wrote in my Lawfare essay, “The Unhidden Hand” - the hand that mattered most was never hidden.

The charges, press releases & online amplification create the illusion that non-citizen voter fraud is widespread. This is a strategic, manufactured, false narrative. Statistics show non-citizen voting is extremely rare, & in the few cases that exist often results from confusion, not willful fraud.
