In this episode I discuss the Russia and Putin's history of launching cyber-warfare and espionage campaigns including the one against the US during the 2016 presidential election. My guests are Laura DuBois and Marley Clements, producers of the documentary Active Measures. We discuss how Russia successfully compromised the 2016 election as well as Trump's connections to Russia dating back to the 80's, his connections to the Russian mob, dark money laundering and the long-standing connections between Russia and Paul Manafort and Michael Flynn.
