Kremlin gets behind pro-Trump pundit’s propaganda
Over the weekend the news broke that the Kremlin has been urging Russian state media to promote video clips of Fox News host Tucker Carlson taking pro-Putin positions. It turns out Carlson isn’t the only one the Kremlin is getting behind.
The Russian Embassy in the United States is now getting behind pro-Trump pundit Candace Owens, retweeting her “Russian lives matter” propaganda:

You’d think the likes of Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens would be given pause by the fact that the Kremlin is amplifying their words, at a time when the Kremlin has invaded a sovereign country for the sole purpose of trying to destroy it.
