The U.S. citizens and two Russians were added to an existing case in Tampa, Florida, federal court involving Aleksandr Ionov, described by prosecutors as the founder of a Moscow-based organization funded by the Russian government to carry out a clandestine influence campaign in the U.S.

The four Americans are all part of the African People's Socialist Party and Uhuru Movement, which has locations in St. Petersburg, Florida, and St. Louis. Among those charged is Omali Yeshitela, chairman of the U.S.-based organization — which was raided by the FBI last summer when Ionov was originally charged.

“Russia's foreign intelligence service allegedly weaponized our First Amendment rights — freedoms Russia denies to its own citizens — to divide Americans and interfere in elections in the United States,” said Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen of the Justice Department's National Security Division.

“The department will not hesitate to expose and prosecute those who sow discord and corrupt U.S. elections in service of hostile foreign interests, regardless of whether the culprits are U.S. citizens or foreign individuals abroad,” Olsen said in a news release.

They are guilty of protesting the glorious 1,000 year democrat Reich

I am confused as hell what his skin color has to do with anything...but that aside I am not sure I really have any problem with someone working directly for a foreign government being required to register as such.

I think you just hit the nail on the head. I oppose Ukraine. I oppose Zelenskyy. And I admire Russians for their sacrifice in World War II. I don’t think the United States should be involved in Ukraine because Russia did not get involved in Iraq could you imagine of Russia or China Dave billions of dollars of military equipment to Iraq if they gave him $100 billion to fight Americans we would have had many more Americans die we would’ve of course won the war but we would’ve lost many more Americans.

I don’t agree with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine but America should not be involved in that war and it’s just insane to see the excuses that Democrats and Republicans make for America’s involvement in the Russia Ukraine war as if we’ve never invaded any other country.

YES WW2 RUSSIA helped win the war, But PUTIN the DICTATOR had nothing to do with it.

That was the Soviet Union who mass genocided millions of Ethnic Orthodox Russians and made Christianity illegal. Many of their offspring run out government now.
