Dougan, a former Marine and police officer, fled his home in Florida in 2016 to evade criminal charges related to a massive doxxing campaign he was accused of launching against public officials and was given asylum by the Russian government. Most recently, Dougan has posed as a journalist in Ukraine’s Donbas region, testifying at Russian public hearings and making frequent appearances on Russian state TV.
Not even close. A useful idiot is tricked into doing something they did not intend to do.
This guy is all in with Russia.
Incorrect. A useful idiot is someone who doesn’t understand the impact/outcome of their actions. A foreign agent doesn’t need to turn/trick/recruit an actor because the idiot is already doing the subversive work for nothing. A small amount of money or encouragement goes a long way with idiots. An example …does anyone else remember the “Hillary is 44” movement after she lost the nomination to Obama?
