RT Discovers 'Deep State' Also Sabotages *Their* Preferred Autocrats
Kirill Dmitriev, Russian presidential envoy, claims the nefarious 'deep state' and 'Western media' sabotaged Donald Trump’s noble 'peace efforts.' This, of course, comes via RT, the Kremlin's English-language propaganda arm. The irony, as always, is a blunt instrument in their hands. While RT champions the idea of a media-subverted presidency, they simultaneously decry any 'Western' media scrutiny
of their own government's actions—actions like, say, invading a sovereign neighbor (referencing Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, a verifiable event). One might wonder if Mr. Dmitriev's concern for media independence extends to outlets within Russia. Or if 'peace efforts' now include the 'negotiations' that preceded said invasion. It seems 'deep state' is only problematic when it's not *your*
state's propaganda apparatus doing the spinning. The mirror, it appears, is optional equipment at RT headquarters.
