Thanks to at home for joining us tonight.

Really happy to have you here on a Friday night.

Just after the election, three days after the election, a right-wing streaming network started airing a six-part Russian propaganda special, attacking the FBI. Now, I say it was a Russian propaganda special. Attacking the FBI.

Now, I say it was a Russian propaganda special because, specifically, it was made by a producer

who has made a living making propaganda for the Kremlin.

One of the producers, the guy who financed and produced this film, this

docu series, this attack on the FBI, he has been paid by the Kremlin to produce videos that

are designed to lure Westerners, including Americans, to leave the West and move to Mother

Russia. That project was funded by the Presidential Foundation

for Cultural Initiatives, which is a state entity created in the Kremlin by Vladimir Putin in

2021. This guy served on the board of a Russian propaganda outlet that was designed to look like

an American news site. It was launched in the months

leading up to our 2024 election. It was full of pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine content.

This guy has produced hagiographic biographies of pro-Kremlin dictators, including, I kid you

not, an eight-part series, singing the praises of the dictator of Kazakhstan.

And that was paid for by a charity controlled by the dictator of Kazakhstan.

He also created a pro-Kremlin anti-Ukraine film that was paid for by a pro-Kremlin anti-Ukraine oligarch,

who has been under U.S. sanctions for more than a decade.

He and his company produced another anti-Ukraine film last year that featured claims smearing President Biden,

that were delivered by a guy who is under indictment in this

country and sanctioned by the U.S. government as a Russian agent.

So this is kind of their over.
