This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

The only "crime" the DOJ is alleging is that they violated the Forigen Agents Act by not discolosing funds they may have received from the FSB, or through FSB agents. Not too sure since they constantly claim the Russian nationals that funded ASP were FSB.

Not even clear that this would stand in court since these talking points have been said for decades now. If the DOJ is arguing the intent is due to an "unresonable" sum of money being accepted, in the same way an "unreasonable" amount of drugs must mean intent to distribute, then that would be totally discredited by the fact that these are not new rhetorical talking points.

Imo very weak case, I wouldn't hold my breath for a non guilty verdict, but this is not going to be easy for the DOJ to prosecute.
