It pays well to be a Russian propagandist. One YouTuber contributing to Tenet got $400K a month for 4 videos a week, plus a $100K signing bonus and performance incentives. Another got $100K per video. The right became obsessed with conspiracies but somehow missed this one.

A lot of people thought Russian disinformation was exagaratted as a force in our politics. Other investigations and indictments could be brushed off. Not this case. You have a network of right-wing influencers everyone has heard of, some with millions of followers, directly paid

So Tucker Carlson is promoting Hitler supporters, and lots of the biggest right-wing podcasters turned out to be secretly bankrolled by the Russians? Guess what, I was right: noahpinion.blog/p/liberalism-iโ€ฆ

I have very little patience for those that express shock that Carlson would "go there." He's been there for some time. The doubters and skeptics are either stupid or dishonest or both. unpopularfront.news/p/were-so-back

LOL. According to the DOJ indictment, one of Tenet Media's producers didnโ€™t want to post Tucker Carlson's grocery store trip in Russia because they thought it was not subtle enough for a Russian influence operation: โ€œIt just feels like overt shilling"

๐Ÿšจ Big permitting reform news: The most rigorous climate modeling shows a net emissions reduction from the bipartisan Senate bill. Climate advocates should support this bill.

The US has lagged in shipbuilding for over 100 years. More details about the history of ship construction than I thought was reasonable (with bonus coverage of the Jones Act), but it's still not clear why โ€” it's almost like they have other priorities. construction-physics.com/p/why-cant-theโ€ฆ

Fox says you canโ€™t have law enforcement expose a Russian op this year because itโ€™s election interference. Incredible stuff. Itโ€™s literally Russians paying influencers, open and shut. These people just think law enforcement shouldnโ€™t exist because it hurts them politically.

The world produces less nuclear power today than it did 20 years ago. Two things that are both true: 1. Shutting down existing nuclear power plants is extremely stupid. 2. Those predicting an imminent nuclear renaissance have an extremely high burden of proof to meet.
