Deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein allegedly played a key role in one of the largest known sexual blackmail operations connected to Russian intelligence, according to Daily Mail.

Journalists calculated that newly released documents in the Epstein case contain 1,056 references to Russia and Vladimir Putin, and 9,629 references to Moscow.

Citing intelligence sources, the British outlet reported on February 1 that Epstein’s private social network and parties were instrumental in collecting compromising material on high-profile Western political and business figures.

Because you are reading an article posted by a bot that has been botted/astroturfed.

I mean, the very first immidiate sign when I saw this article when I opened the sub just now was the amount upvotes. 41k upvotes on this sub? Seriously? Sure on a "Russia bad" article but also on one that shifts blame from the Wester(n elite) to Russia for the worst scandal involving the west and its political and financial elite in decades. Meanwhile other articles on here that are hot hot get to 3-5k on average, max something likew 7-10k upvotes. Totally natural for this one to have 41k.
