On Wednesday, the Biden administration publicly accused Russia of launching a sustained campaign to influence the 2024 presidential elections using Kremlin-controlled media and online platforms to spread disinformation.
Fox News confirmed that Russia-linked entities will be targeted by the Justice Department. A CNN report stated that Kremlin-backed RT TV network is expected to be named by the Justice Department as one of the key players in the covert campaign. Attorney General Merrick Garland is expected to speak about the matter later this afternoon.
When asked by Fox News Digital for its reaction to the allegations, RT said, “We certainly have a reaction. Actually, we had several, but we couldn't decide on one (we even thought of running an office poll), so here they are.”
“2016 called and it wants its clichés back,” was among them, as were: “Three things are certain in life: death, taxes and RT's interference in the U.S. elections,” “We gotta earn our Kremlin paycheck somehow,” and “Somewhere Secretary Clinton is sad that it's not because of her.”
The Justice Department announced indictments against 2 Russia-based RT employees along with the seizure of internet domains in the election influence probe.
