The entire thing that this is about TENET / Rubin etc is speculation.
Even if we assume this speculation for a second as real, the cooperating part is not speculation but rather faulty logic.
Omission of someone's name on the public indictment does not imply cooperation. Names can be omitted if they have other entities being targeted that they believe will be interfered with.
The entire thing that this is about TENET / Rubin etc is speculation.
I don't think that's the case. There's enough identifying information in the indictment. They described TENET using the exact language TENET uses on their website And other details in the indictment line up. Tim Pool and Benny Johnson has issued statements that they basically are victims and were not aware of where the money was coming from. Pool, Johnson and Rubin are not implicated in crimes.
the cooperating part is not speculation but rather faulty logic.
Names in indictments are always omitted if they are not the person being charged with a crime.
The logic behind guessing they are cooperating is because there's a ton of information in the indictment about what they did and what they knew. They knew they were working with Russian money and hid that from the people they were hiring for TENET
So the question becomes why were they not indicted?
COUNT ONE
(Conspiracy to Violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act)
COUNT TWO
(Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering)
I do think it's a strong possibility the Founders cooperated against the two Russians.
The indictment says the founders knew the investor were Russians even though they were telling Tim Pool and Benny Johnson that it was a french guy. There was absolutely no internet presence for this guy Even though he was supposed to be a high executive and a French bank.
When they got paid none of the money came from this supposedly French guys company
U.S. Company-I received its 30 inbound wire transfers from seven foreign entities - none of which were U. S. Company-l ' s contract counterpart.
And the two Russians who supposedly were just editing and production staff were dictating what content the company should put out.
So the two founders had to know what the deal was.
I see the two possibilities as the two founders were hit with a sealed indictment and then cooperated.
Or
The two founders were basically in on it but had enough plausible deniability that they might not get a conviction.
I hadn't thought about this
do you think there are other characters behind the scenes?
But looking up one of the founders she has a lot of other interesting connections.
The government dropped 2 indictments and the sanctions today. It was a coordinated thing.
RT got sanctioned and two RT employees got indicted.
Which part sounds like speculation? The cooperating?
That's definitely a guess.

This would be illegal under what law?
Also, whom do you speculate they are co-operating against? The two Russians? Or do you think there are other characters behind the scenes?
So Lauren Chen, one of the Founders of Tenet has just been fired by Blaze Media where she also worked.
This is what they are being charged with.
