VT: There are levels here. VT has, traditionally, been supportive of some Russian policies, Syria for sure and their limited opposition to abuses of international law by NATO and/or the US.
That changed in 2017 when we began to question what we clearly saw as a sea change in overt or visible Russian policy, aligning Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and Israel behind the corrupt Kosher Nostra oligarchs that call Donald Trump one of their own.
This is where the recent cyber attack comes in as it targeted, primarily, America’s power grid, not to take it down but to gain control of it. It took considerable capability on the ground inside the US for the massive hack to penetrate stand alone systems, something supposedly impossible without physical “hacks” as well.
Figure it out…

Guardian: White supremacists plotted to attack power stations in the south-eastern US, and an Ohio teenager who allegedly shared the plan said he wanted the group to be “operational” on a fast-tracked timeline if Donald Trump were to lose his re-election bid, the FBI alleges in an affidavit that was mistakenly unsealed.

The teen was in a text group with more than a dozen people in the fall of 2019 when he introduced the idea of saving money to buy a ranch where they could participate in militant training, according to the affidavit, which was filed under seal along with a search warrant application in Wisconsin’s eastern US district court in March.

The teenager wanted the group to be “operational” by the 2024 election because he believed it was likely a Democrat would win, but “the timeline for being operational would accelerate if President Trump lost the 2020 election,” according to the affidavit. An informant told investigators that the teen “definitely wanted to be operational for violence, but also activism”.

The Ohio teen, who was 17 at the time, also shared plans with a smaller group about a plot to create a power outage by shooting rifle rounds into power stations in the south-eastern US. The teen called the plot “Light’s Out” and there were plans to carry it out in the summer of 2021, the affidavit states.

OK! So “White supremacists were plotting to attack US power grid over trump loss”. Where is the Russian connection? Was the FSB funding him? I think we ought to be told.
I just bought a wonderwash, in case the grid fails. Why not? Clean clothes are priceless.
