Putin’s Propagandists
In recent years, especially since the 2016 Trump vs. Clinton presidential campaign, the world has witnessed a Great Reversal: The most left-wing, pro-Soviet, pro-communist Democrats and their media enablers suddenly began accusing conservatives of being pro-Russian and pro-Putin. Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Maxine Waters, Bernie Sanders, and other ultra-left politicians who have for decades been comrades of Fidel Castro, Deng Xiaoping, Mikhail Gorbachev, Xi Jinping, and Vladimir Putin now pose as anti-communists.
Since Vladimir Putin burst onto the world stage in 1999, as prime minister to then-president of Russia Boris Yeltsin, The New American has consistently exposed him as a career KGB/FSB operative and has opposed bailouts to, and “partnering” with, his regime. By contrast, America’s Deep State, the permanent government of Democratic-Republican globalists and their Big Media accomplices, supported and promoted Putin throughout the first 15 years of his reign (1999-2014) as prime minister and president. They hailed him as a great “reformer” and as an “ally” and “partner” in the war against Islamic extremism and terrorism, while The New American pointed out the ugly facts about Putin and his crimes.
Two examples of our coverage (from 2014) have been reprinted on pages 25 and 30 of this issue. Examples of what George W. Bush, Hillary Clinton, and others were saying before their great reversal appear below.
