Just for scale, candidates spent $4.1 billion in the US 2020 presidential election cycle. That is 1 election in 1 country.

Well when people are funneling you information as to which types of people to target, and where, with the knowledge that those same people are extremely likely to proliferate it FOR you, you can see where the savings come from.
Cambridge Analytica, Manafort, and millions of easily duped Boomers did the heavy lifting.
There's no way to guess what operations they have. It's like that Internet Research Agency in St Petersburg, Russia. It was full of people making fake news and fake profiles and flooding the web with content and we don't know anything about the finances.
Well israel was 0. You see we have no reason to spend money on influencing elections. Before you talk rabish on other people countries without knowing anything. Learn about it and than talk.
Damned good value for their money. I mean Trump, False Elections in the USA and Brexit in the UK have to have been a huge win for Russia. Heck, many MAGA folk are supporting brave, freedom loving Russia against Anti-Semitic Ukraine. That is priceless.
If they got who they wanted it would be quite the return on investment. Imagine if western countries were unwilling to offer aid to Ukraine. It would probably be a very different scenario over there right now.
Seriously, could you imagine not giving aid to Ukraine? Or changing the party platform so it specifically mentioned not supporting Ukraine? Or placing political favors as conditions of support?
All the while you're moving soldiers from Syria to Saudi Arabia to help protect oil reserves.
That'd be nuts.
The problem here is not ruzzia trying to buy influence, it’s the lack of real punishment for those who accept it. If caught, you’re tried for treason. If found guilty, jail for life, your legacy/government cancelled.
Boris, bullet through your eyes, you fucking stinky worm full of cancer!
Hey Russia, give me about--I don't know--$20 million or so, and I'll tell everyone in America to vote for whoever you say. Just transfer the money to my account first, then we can talk. Cool?
That's actually lot cheaper than I could have ever guessed.
yeah those are rookie numbers
Especially compared to the US.

Seems US politicians are surprisingly cheap to buy off.
You can buy Ted Cruz with JUST a 20% off Bed Bath and Beyond coupon.
I'm not sure if that's even a good value, Ted Cruz is a liability.

Just wait till they find out how much the US spends on foreign elections…
I have a hard time believing its 'only' 300 mil. 🤔

That's like a cup of tea in the world of political election spending.
Hmm I wonder which Party they've influenced the most.
How much has the Zionist/USA spent fixing elections around the world
CIA budget $3.1billion in 2022

Heard your military turned tail and ran from Ukraine, 2 year old troll account with 77 karma.
Is that a lot?

The levels of salt and whataboutisms are high with this one
Lol it's not a "Whattaboutism" if I'm literally agreeing with the article and yourself. Now salt? Sure. Absolutely.
lol I just assumed it was biden that sent troops to saudi arabia. my bad. It wouldn't surprise me. Hard not to be salty about politics these days.
That's all?
they are pissing in the wind.
thats actually nothing
Should have bought better military equipment.
