Do you have sources that don't take funding from US Intel (USAID)?


Felix Sater? I'm guessing he's not funded by US intel? But I really don't know https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Sater#Involvement_with_T...

Or "Alnur Mussayev, former head of Kazakhstan’s security service, who rose up the ranks of the Soviet KGB"? Was US intel funding the KGB?

LOL that was the source? It was a random guy saying he recruited Donald Trump in the 1980s (possibly true), and then a bunch of conjecture based on appearances? No collaborating evidence? No details on what he recruited Donald Trump for or what they used them for?

Thank you for a good laugh.


Sorry, did you want the Politburo to convene in the graveyard to deliver an official statement? Maybe you're waiting for a really trustworthy Russian ideologue like Putin to examine the KGB records on your behalf?

The story is corroborated by Yuri Shvets and Sergei Zhyrnov. You don't have to listen if the accusation offends you, but the pieces of the puzzle sure point towards kompromat more than glasnost.


The accusation doesn't offend me at all. Please send me the sources for Yuri Shvets and Sergei Zhyrnov (either credible journalists or first hand sources that I can dig through are fine).

I am interested in facts, not propaganda echo chamber discussions.
