A group of Russian nationals were able to donate to newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson's campaign in 2018 by funneling the money through a U.S. company.
The Texas-based American Ethane company previously donated tens of thousands of dollars to the campaigns of Louisiana Republicans including Johnson, who was voted by the House to replace Rep. Kevin McCarthy as Speaker on Wednesday following three weeks of GOP chaos in the lower chamber.
While American Ethane was run in 2018 by American John Houghtaling, 88 percent of the firm was owned by three Russian nationals—Konstantin Nikolaev, Mikhail Yuriev, and Andrey Kunatbaev.
Republicans are actively and knowingly working toward russia’s goal. The traitor swine.
It's ok now that Russia is run by oligarchs - oligarchs don't really have nationality in the sense of us peons. It was only that crazy, communist USSR they didn't like. Seriously: name me a significant Russian policy that doesn't 100% align with US conservatives.
Almost like the post-Soviet Russian government was heavily influenced by Ronald Reagan's administration. Of course conservatives love Russia now, it's fully realized Reagan's dream.

The NRA was nearly shut down because it was funneling so much money from the Russian right to bear arms group that it didn'tknow what to spend it on - so the leadership spent it on luxury stuff.
Almost like they know how to destabilize a country
