Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Kremlin-linked oligarch known as “Vladimir Putin’s chef,” appeared to admit to Russian interference in US elections in a Telegram post on Monday.
Prigozhin said that Russia has interfered, is interfering and will continue to interfere in US democracy, in response to a journ*list’s question about Russia potentially interfering in US congressional elections on November 8.
“I will answer you very subtly, and delicately and I apologize, I will allow a certain ambiguity. Gentlemen, we interfered, we interfere and we will interfere,” Prigozhin said.
“Carefully, precisely, surgically and in our own way, as we know how. During our pinpoint operations, we will remove both kidneys and the liver at once,” he added.
It was not immediately clear how serious Prigozhin was being in his comments, which appeared to have been made somewhat sarcastically. But the US has sanctioned Prigozhin for funding the Internet Research Agency, a notorious Russian troll farm accused of meddling in several recent US elections.
In September, Prigozhin also admitted to founding the Wagner Group – a private mercenary group accused of war crimes in Africa, Syria, and Ukraine – after years of denying involvement with the shadowy outfit.

All the pearl clutching about "Russian interference" is the real troll, the no-name Twitter accounts posting into the void is just bait to get journos to sneed about something that isn't real. It makes Americans think that putin is some all-powerful God who can decide who is president, all while beating each other up for "stealing an election" and then pulling a
That's why I'm voting for Vladimir putin tomorrow. He is clearly the master baiter of our generation.

It's such an easy win for Russians. They can do nothing and say they are interfering and the media will lap it up.

If the Democrats lose then it's clearly Russian interference and if the Republicans lose then it's clearly Democrats stealing the votes.
