As alleged, Gal Luft, a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen and co-head of a Maryland think tank, engaged in multiple, serious criminal schemes. He subverted foreign agent registration laws in the United States to seek to promote Chinese policies by acting through a former high-ranking U.S. Government official; he acted as a broker in deals for dangerous weapons and Iranian oil; and he told multiple lies about his crimes to law enforcement. As the charges unsealed today reflect, our Office will continue to work vigorously with our law enforcement partners to detect and hold accountable those who surreptitiously attempt to perpetrate malign foreign influence campaigns here in the United States.

Cue the conspiracy theories in 3…2…1…

    What the hell is this link? This place makes no fucking sense.

    Everyone and their brother is carrying this story. Domestically and world wide. BBC, Al Jazeera, CNN, NYT. Literally everyone.

    And OP posts a link to mediate.com? What the fuck? Then, end your post with “cue the conspiracy theories?”

    What is this place? What a joke

        Is this a community where we post “cue the conspiracy theories” in our “news” posts? If so, that’s fine, your prerogative, I’ll just move along to a different community.
