Russia has spent more than $300 million in a global campaign to influence foreign political events, according to a newly declassified U.S. intelligence review.
Moscow has covertly funded political parties, officials and politicians in at least two dozen nations across four continents since 2014, the U.S. said Tuesday, as the Kremlin’s role in other countries’ affairs comes under greater scrutiny after its invasion of Ukraine.
President Joe Biden’s administration is sharing details of the review with 110 countries as part of its campaign to expose Russia’s actions by making them public.

..."The Biden White House has previously taken the unusual step of declassifying intelligence about the Kremlin's plans.
A stream of intel assessments warning that Putin was planning a full-scale invasion of Ukraine earlier this year ultimately proved correct.
The administration has even released intelligence that was less than rock solid in an attempt to keep Moscow off balance, officials have said.
More recently the U.S. said that Russia is buying North Korean rockets and artillery in Ukraine.
CIA Director William Burns said last week that this strategy had proven effective.
Russia has suffered severe setbacks in its Ukrainian military campaign in the last week, with Kyiv's forces retaking vast swaths of territory, including several key cities, as Russian troops retreat in the country's east."

How about the Russian actors behind Trump's impeachment and Hunter Biden? Are they going to be exposed, doubtful?
