Shownotes Transcript

Thanks to the hardworking folks in the intelligence community, we now have new allegations of Russian interference into the 2024 presidential election. Two employees of the Russian state media network RT, previously known as Russia Today, were indicted, dozens of internet domains were seized for “malign influence campaigns” and a new visa restriction policy was introduced as part of the efforts to check foreign influence.

Jimmy and podcaster Ryan Dawson discuss the timing of these indictments and  the online commentators like Dave Rubin, Benny Johnson and Tim Pool who have been caught up in the controversy.

Plus segments on Candace Owens’ controversial suspension from YouTube and Jimmy’s commentary on the Harris-Trump presidential debate.
