      They knew what was happening, they just figured the ends would justify the means

    3. Apprehensive_Sleep_4 on

      Awhh those little crybabies because they are exposed for commiting a crime. Hoping those influencers will be convicted soon.

    4. agha0013 on

      victims of their own stupidity and greed, or completely complicit and just playing the victim card now that the evidence is exposing them.

      let them cry.

      I’m sure they’re so, so remorseful that they will be donating those big bags of cash they got from putin to worthy causes.

      Maybe they should go back to school and get real jobs? Also maybe stop trusting people with a history of turning on their allies? Well, I guess they can’t do that or they wouldn’t be able to talk to themselves or their fan base. 

      Maybe they should just shut up and stop complaining that their own bullshit was turned against them.

      They accepted money to push a political agenda they happily wanted to share with their viewers anyways. Im over it but glad there seems to be someone paying attention

    13. TheRealBenDamon on

      I’m sure they were wiping their tears away with all that fucking Russian money for being so victimized

    14. SignifigantZebra on

      Not buying it, try again.

      Someone who looks at everything that has happened since 2013. including a full scale invasion for no reason other than fascist warmongering and imperialism. all while conducting a “hybrid war” against Europe, America, and their allies.

      looks at all of that and says “Ukraine is our enemy, We owe Russia an apology”

      That kind of person would have been Lynched during the world wars.

    15. jardani581 on

      so they were..idiots who were useful to the russians…

      useful idiots.

    16. compuwiza1 on

      They were willing participants in Russian propaganda. Don’t believe their lies.

    17. Sad_Log905 on

      So odd the folks at r/conservative don’t even have a story mentioning this although it’s perfectly within their circle. Such a odd alternate reality they stay in.

      Another poster mentioned how this quote from the movie Casino applies to this kind of situation as well:

      “Listen, if you didn’t know you’re scammed, you’re too fucking dumb to keep this job. If you did know, you are in on it. Either way you’re out.”

    21. brickyardjimmy on

      Ah ha ha ha ha. Tim Pool is now a victim. Ha ha ha ha ha.

      No, seriously, these people sold out their country cheap is what happened. The start of what should happen to them is a total and complete shunning of them as pubic figures. They’ve done harm to the country we share for a meager profit.

      This deserves an exhaustive investigation.

      They were getting paid 100k a week for youtube videos. I think they stayed willingly ignorant of the details of their funding despite the blaring clues something was up- like their handler openly googling “time in moscow” in front of them when their pay was late. I mean 100k a week is a chunk of change, they got a better deal than Menendez did and he was the chair of the Senate foreign relations committee. Of course, Trump got 10 mill upfront just from the Egyptians, so he’s the best negotiator out of them.

    23. _SheepishPirate_ on

      Yes. You were. THE WHOLE FUCKING INTERNET HAD BEEN TELLING YOU AS MUCH.

    24. o_MrBombastic_o on

      We’re shocked shocked! We were being paid by Russia to say the exact same talking points we were going to say for free

    25. ttvSprig on

      DARVO: deny, accuse, reverse victim and offender.

      Typical Tim “Tool” Poole.

    26. myles_cassidy on

      Isn’t ‘personal responsibility’ a cornerstone of right wing beliefs?

    28. sadcheeseballs on

      This is a stupid headline that lets their excuse become the story. It should read:
      Right-wing influencers deny being Russian puppets, despite taking money for pro-Russian stories.

      Why give them a sympathetic title? Fuck these traitors.

    29. Kitchen_Philosophy29 on

      Why is anyone letting them turn the headlines for this?

      The got bought off by russia. There are coubtless documents and evidence of them knowing it was the russians

      Between them calling them “the russians”

      Tim pool making statements like “ukraine is the biggest threat to the usa in the world…. we should ask russia for forgiveness”.

    31. Agrippanux on

      An example of a victim is someone who paid ten grand to Trump University to learn the secret of real estate and got some pamphlets and a pitch for MLM, not someone who took $100k to make a video about how Ukraine is our enemy and didn’t think to ask who was paying for it.

    32. XI_Vanquish_IX on

      Lmao the jig is up so they’re rushing to put the blame on anyone they can

    33. bobobobobobobo6 on

      If these people were any better at being victims, they could do it for a living.

      Oh wait…

    34. greatfullness on

      “Unwitting” is an accurate way to describe them – but ignorance of a crime is not a defence – “just following orders” you were paid to is not a defence – if it was the justice system would fall apart lol

      To what extent does your stupidity protect you from the consequences of your actions? Let’s ask Alex Jones shall we

      We need to protect society from their influence, and whatever the consequences they should be a deterrent for others to attempt such unacceptable, treasonous behaviour in the name of greed

      Keep the investigations into these domestic terrorists going, they’ve been destabilizing the west effectively for years now with the help of algorithms and direct connections to peoples palms – a response has been long overdue

    36. DreamcatcherGoneWild on

      “Victims”!?

      Oh please, they knew exactly what they were doing.

    38. ratuuft on

      Playing the victim while receiving millions…

      Is anyone gonna fall for this?

    40. Holden_Coalfield on

      Conspiracy chasers think nothing of mysterious strangers with bags full of money for . . . Chasing mystery man’s conspiracies

    41. stinkyguy3773 on

      traitors…they needed to be treated like it too. sick of this shit.

    42. The_Bard on

      Total coincidence that they had the same talking points as the Kremlin while on their payroll!

    44. ThreeOclockCaveMan on

      Aren’t the real victims all they people they propagandized? Maybe they should pay their rubles to anyone who subscribed to their nonsense.

    46. jpaperkid on

      This is the exact moment every right wing us influencer should be asking “are we the baddies?”

    47. 000TheEntity000 on

      Serious question – is there a crime being commited here? If so , which one?  I would like to see this go ALL THE WAY considering how hateful these guys are in their bones.

    48. k0_crop on

      Send these assclowns to the front lines. They literally betrayed their country and are acting like victims. I hope a drone drops a bomb on top of their heads and they explode into a million meaty pieces.

    49. TheyCallMeBubbleBoyy on

      Right wing influencers attempt to absolve themselves of any accountability in ongoing FBI investigation.

      I’m a victim I swear this cash just showed up in my account!!!

      Lock them all up as traitors.

    50. liburIL on

      Oh, so THEY’RE the victims now??? What a crock of shit. They know exactly what they were doing, and now they’re trying everything they can to not reap what they sowed.
