🎬 Title: Red Shadow over the White House / Opération Trump : Les espions russes à la conquête de l’Amérique
Story: As we edge closer to the 2024 elections, the unsettling reality of Russian meddling in American politics—whether through spies or figures of influence—looms large. Vladimir Putin appears to be banking on a Donald Trump victory to diminish support for Ukraine. Why does Trump consistently align with Russia? Is there a chance he is compromised? During his time in office, did he prioritize Moscow’s interests over those of the United States? Additionally, what accounts for the Republican Party’s evolving perspective on Russia? Unraveling these issues requires an exploration of a complex web of espionage that has roots dating back to the waning days of the Cold War. At that time, Trump was an emerging real estate mogul, while Putin was a fledgling KGB operative. Though much of this operation remains shrouded in mystery, several key witnesses offer insights—from a former KGB leader and “illegals” infiltrator to ex-Trump advisors and former high-ranking officials from the CIA and FBI. . . .
