From BBC.  Charlton Heston had some good ideas as well.

When protesters call their bluff.

LewRockwell.com, Antiwar.com, DrudgeReport.com, the Ron Paul Institute, Naked Capitalism, WikiLeaks of course, among others.  So basically every website I read throughout the day is on Putin’s payroll. Huh.  Well, where’s my check, Vlad?

The only fake news here is the “exposure” of Russian influence in these news sites.

Of course they would.  Government, like the cockroach, hates sunlight.  From The Intercept:

“The arrests of journalists and filmmakers covering the front lines of the Dakota Access pipeline fight highlight the limits of press protections and the central role of police, prosecutor, and court discretion in deciding whether or not members of the press should face legal consequences when covering protests.

The ‘Investigatory Powers Bill’, dubbed by critics as the “Snooper’s Charter”, has been approved by the UK Parliament, which means the British government now has sweeping power to spy on its citizens, and force internet service providers to record and store information on its customers’ internet activity for up to 12 months.

“Law enforcement agencies will then be able to obtain access to this data without any court order or warrant.”

The UK government has been engaged in this type of total surveillance for awhile now, thanks to Ed Snowden’s revelations, the Snooper’s Charter merely retroactively legalizes it.

Tries to compete with the CIA and other intelligence outfits, fails.  Wanted to fight against a Soviet invasion in Alaska for the explicit purpose of screwing the CIA out of the opportunity during the Cold War, FBI documents show. MuckRock

Further proof that the Drug War corrupts character on both sides of the badge, with the innocent being victimized by the scum that rises to power on either side of the law.
