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…

      Don’t disparage new users, they should feel welcome! If we aren’t kind to people like koofnoof, we might soon find ourselves without thinly veiled bigotry and baseless finger pointing. Are you sure you want to defend basic modern moral standards?

        Man, jerboa has a nice block function. I was using infinity for reddit, and not only was it something like 4 clicks, it had been broken for months. Jerboa? Click dots, click block. Smooth. Its great that there is a list in your account to to unblock here at lemmy as well if you change your mind for some reason.

        Giving shitheels the boot is nice and breezy now.

        Correct, everyone is entitled to their opinion as long as it doesn’t violate the rules. This isn’t a echo chamber and you will see views you might not agree with. That is how it should be.
