The Russian Foreign Ministry tweeted Wednesday after Russian national Mariia Butina was charged with acting as an agent of a foreign government, claiming that it was an FBI set-up to aggravate anti-Russia sentiment in the U.S.
#Zakharova: We are dismayed by the reported arrest of Russian citizen Maria Butina in the US on July 15. According to a statement on the website of the US Justice Department, she is charged with conspiracy to act as an agent of Russia without prior notification

#Zakharova: It looks as if the FBI, instead of carrying out their responsibility of fighting crime, is implementing a political put-up job set to it by forces that are whipping up anti-Russia hysteria in the US

Butina was arrested Sunday and is currently being held without bond ahead of her hearing Wednesday in D.C. federal court.
Snowflakes!
Who cares what they have to say, they lie just as much as drump, all they are doing is showing that actually care about Butina getting arrested. My guess is they mainly care due to in the inroads they have made with the NRA.
And the treasury just made it easier to use something like the NRA to funnel money to elections.

There’s some tactically-smart strategically-moronic Chekists & chaos-agents in Moscow (and DC, and CA) who are shitting themselves today.
