CMRivdogs Posted December 30, 2025 Posted December 30, 2025 She's white and Russian so she gets to stay despite being indicted for illegally taking money for her "business". Thanks Don and JD https://www.thebulwark.com/p/lauren-chen-trump-administration-scores-visa-for-founder-russian-propaganda-outlet-tenet?utm_source=substack&publication_id=87281&post_id=182912328&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&isFreemail=false&r=45wcm&triedRedirect=true Quote RIGHT-WING MEDIA PERSONALITY Lauren Chen left the United States in July in disgrace. Her Tenet Media YouTube channel, which positioned itself as a sort of MAGA supergroup bringing together such popular commentators as Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, and Dave Rubin, had been exposed in 2024 by the FBI as a Russian media front illicitly taking money from pro-Putin propaganda outlet RT. The September 2024 indictment from the Southern District of New York targeted Tenet’s FARA-skirting Russian funders, not Chen or her husband, Liam Donovan. But the Canadian couple were clearly described in the indictment as allegedly scheming with RT employees to direct $10 million to Tenet and even create a fictional persona to mislead one pundit about the source of the funding. In the wake of the indictment, Chen lost her work visa and was forced to leave the country. She also vanished from social media. It seemed unlikely she would return to the United States anytime soon. But this holiday season, Chen and her husband were back in Nashville, where she lived while running Tenet. She broke the news herself, by announcing on Instagram and X on Christmas Day that she could now return to the United States, and specifically thanking the State Department’s Joe Rittenhouse, a senior adviser on consular affairs and former Trump presidential campaign worker, for his help. “The biggest thank you to Joe Rittenhouse at the State Department for moving mountains to ensure we were able to return in time for the holidays!” Chen wrote on Instagram. Chen also thanked Customs and Border Patrol, the FBI, and “the administration” broadly. “Also the utmost gratitude to CBP, the new leadership at the FBI, and the administration for their help making this possible, and for everything they do to keep America safe,” she wrote. Rittenhouse himself confirmed the administration’s effort to help Tenet Media’s founders return to America in a post on X, wishing Chen a “merry Christmas.” They all should spend time in the Florida Alligator Gulag 1 Quote
smr-nj Posted December 30, 2025 Posted December 30, 2025 I just gotta ask…. Why TF are there meetings, AND telephone calls involving world leaders (whose countries are at WAR) being held at a private country club??? Why is this not even getting mentioned / questioned?? There is nothing secure about that place. Not the rooms, not the grounds, not the communication devices. Good lord, why not just invite the spies & assassins to sit at the damn table & serve them croissants and coffee followed by a spa massage??? What the actual ****. and let’s not even talk about that sham of a press conference afterwards. How dare he say that Putin wants only the best for Ukraine. I am sick of this man’s lies and mind numbing stupidity. just sick to death of it. 1 1 Quote

Hard to see daylight between our own nation’s administration and criminals. Being sick of this is a sign of healthy sanity, Sue. Quote

Disagree. Anyone who can turn policy on its head 180 degrees by musing thoughtlessly can screw up the country arguably worse than someone who has to put any time into it. Quote

romad1 Posted December 31, 2025 Posted December 31, 2025 Re: Trumpstein The name that hasn’t come under enough scrutiny is this Wexler guy from Victoria’s Secret. You can imagine how they used his pull to entice young girls into “modeling” Quote

Motown Bombers Posted December 31, 2025 Posted December 31, 2025 If I understand right, they were going to make Giuliani queen for a day and he was going to roll on Trump? They would have had Trump dead to rights. He can't keep getting away with it. Quote

His wikipedia page is amazing. Lots of "but Wexner was found innocent of this" tagged at the end of a lot of crimes he was near and around including assassination and cocaine smuggling. Quote
