Original Note:
For context, Tim Pool was paid $100K per episode by Tenet Media, which the US DOJ says got $9.7M from Russia to spread Russian propaganda. Though not charged, his ties to Russian funds raise concerns & are important context in relation to anti-Ukraine content he promotes. https://apnews.com/article/russian-interference-presidential-election-influencers-trump-999435273dd39edf7468c6aa34fad5dd https://www.wired.com/story/influencers-tenet-benny-johnson-tim-pool-russia-propaganda-videos/ https://www.npr.org/2024/09/05/nx-s1-5100829/russia-election-influencers-youtube
