Why in the USA they created the "Committee on Investigations against Russia" and what does Morgan Freeman have to do with it

In America, interest in the "Russian topic" does not subside. We are talking about the intervention of the Kremlin in the course of the American elections (as the special services say, referring to secret data) and the connections of people from Trump's entourage with Russia. The famous Hollywood actor Morgan Freeman spoke on this subject.

Only facts

Special prosecutor R. Müller is going to make an official accusation to the former chief of the campaign headquarters Donald Trump Paul Manafort. John Huntsman, candidate for the post of US Ambassador to Moscow, at a hearing in the Senate Committee, stated that he had no doubt that Russia had intervened in the American elections, and he would “strongly confront such actions as a messenger of his country.” In addition, the Senate, approving the defense budget of $ 700 billion, allocated $ 500 million to the aid of Ukraine in the field of security, including weapons. 100 million - Balkan states to the rescue "in restraining Russian aggression."

New role of Morgan Freeman

In Hollywood films, he played the roles of the Most High and President of the United States several times. Now, in the video of the Public Organization “Committee on Investigations against Russia,” Morgan Freeman says that “America was attacked by Russia” and is at war. Once again, the Americans recall the activities of hackers and intelligence coordinated by the Russian authorities, their intervention in the election. The evidence of the Kremlin’s intervention in the election to the general public was not presented, but the US intelligence services acquainted the members of Congress who adopted the law on new sanctions against Russia. Intelligence materials were provided in accordance with the level of admission of legislators to secret materials.

The committee’s website contains almost all the open information about the alleged ties of the Trump team with Russian politicians and businessmen, data on the alleged “intermediaries” - Natalya Veselnitskaya, Rinat Akhmetshina and others, as well as about negotiations from both sides and interested parties; Messages about the progress of parliamentary investigations and the work of the team of special prosecutor R. Müller, news and video archive on the topic.

Morgan Freeman in the commercial of the new organization calls on Donald Trump to appeal to the nation, officially announce cyber ends from Russia and the beginning of a full -scale investigation of Russian intervention in the elections.

“Imagine a script in which a former KGB officer, annoyed by the collapse of his country, plans revenge. Taking advantage of Chaos in post -Soviet Russia, he climbed the service ladder and became president. He established an authoritarian regime and turned his eyes to the sworn enemy. And like a real spy of the KGB, as it is, secretly used cyber weapons to attack democratic countries around the world. Using social networks to spread propaganda and misinformation, he convinced people living in these countries that one cannot trust his own media, democratic processes and even neighbors. And he won. Vladimir Putin is the name of this spy. And this is not the script of the film ",

- convinces Freeman of the Americans.

Perhaps for the first time the charges against Russia were made at a popular and household level so that any housewife, farmer or cowboy understood-this is a real threat. The statements of politicians, especially political scientists, are usually interesting only to a narrow group of people. A popular actor will more effectively and spectacular letters to the masses.

Actually, this is confirmed by the creator of the committee, director Rob Rainer: Freeman was called to participate in the project "Due to the weight of his voice."

He played the Almighty, reminds the director, in the video the Voice of God sounds.

In addition to the convinced liberal of Rainer, who was campaigning in the elections for Hillary Clinton, Max Buto, a neoconservative historian and publicist, entered the advisory committee. But was born in Moscow, but grew up in Los Angeles, his parents emigrated to the United States. The organization’s leadership also included the former US National Intelligence Director James Clapper. And the former speaker and assistant President Bush-ML represented the new organization of the American media. David Frum, who once came up with the term “axis of evil” (in 2002 it was Iran, Iraq and the DPRK, we were not there then). It turned out an unexpected alloy: a well -known film director, former head of intelligence, historian and popular radio host. “When it comes to an attack on our country, it doesn’t matter to me that we are sitting nearby. We are all about America and all of us are patriots, ”the director who shot such films as Wall Street (with DiCaprio),“ Lying in Seattle ”(with Tom Hanks),“ Several Good Guys ”(with Nicholson, Cruz and Demi Moore), said.

Hollywood was again interested in the Russian theme. As the publication The Hollywood Reporter writes,

From the new films “Red Sparrow” and “Kursk”, during installation, scenes with the participation of the character depicting the Russian president were cut out.

According to journalists, the creators at the last moment were frightened by a large -scale hacker attack, like the one that was carried out at the Sony studio after the film “Interview”, which was satirically depicted by the leader of North Korea. Actress Jennifer Lawrence, who shot in the role of a Russian spy in the Red Sparrow, refused to communicate with Russian journalists at a press conference in London-for “political motives”.

Foreign agents "in the rear of the enemy"

After several years of complete inaction, the Russian media in the United States fell into close attention of American officials and legislators. Senator Mark Warner, a member of the intelligence committee, requires explanations from the Facebook Internet resource, where advertising posts were published about some events related to the election campaign in America. The Internet resource blocked these pages and does not reveal their contents. According to The New York Times, one of the advertisements was dedicated to the antimigrant rally in Aydaho in August 2016, organized by the Secured Borders group, which is accused of relations with Russia.

Facebook, the world's largest social network, announced the identification of an operation, within the framework of which thousands of advertising posts on such acute topics as immigration, racial issues and LGBT rights were posted on the site. This happened within two years, until May 2017. It is assumed that Russia stands behind the publications. Senator Warner requires the continuation of the investigation: who, when, how and for how much.

Three Congressmen-Democrat, Frank Palon, Anna Esu and Mike Doyle, applied to the Federal Commission for Mass Communications with a demand to investigate the activities of the Sputnik radio and the Internet Sit of the same agency. Congressmen believe that their activities are aimed at undermining American politics.

The US Department of Justice sent a letter to the company that serves the RT America TV channel demanding to register as a foreign agent. This law (Fara) was adopted in the United States in 1938 to put the barrier to the spread of Hitler's propaganda. Since then, he obliges to register as foreign agents of organizations officially working in the United States in the interests of foreign states.

The Internet publication of Yahoo News reported that the FBI employees on September 1 met with the former correspondent of the satellite agency at the White House to find out how much this publication can be considered the Rupor of the Russian government and whether the law on registration of foreign agents was violated. The FBI seized a flash drive with official correspondence and internal documents - thousands of pages of materials, which in the future can be represented by the prosecutor.

It is not about closing RT broadcasting in the USA. The Sputnik radio also broadcasts, as the congressmen write in a letter to the Commission on Communications, "it is enough in Washington to include a wave at a frequency of 105.5 FM to hear how the Russian government is trying to influence US policy."
