Krystal Ball…Is she a spook?

So you are saying that because she says things you do not like, she is a paid Russian spy, OP?

How original.

Krystal Ball is a pseudo-leftist with liberal leanings. The fact that she works closely and is friends with the nefarious Sagaar Enjeti, a product of the Hudson Institute, tells us everything we need to know about her. And let's not forget the fact that she is in a relationship with that wishy-washy hypocrite and Democrat shill, Kyle Kulinski.

So no, OP, she is hardly a Russian spy. She is more likely to be on the US government's payroll, pretending to be a left wing populist when in reality, she is just a product of corporate media selected to pretend that there is actual plurality in the media.

We do know for a fact that the Russians pay certain people to promote fringe or divisive views. So it wouldn't shock me but I dunno how to tell for sure.

I don’t think any of you know what she’s been up to lately.

She is no liberal. She is no democrat.

She is anti-Ukraine, anti-democracy and gone full blown fascist.

She got her start mail nc a fuss about abortion and was at one time a lefty.

Didn’t hear a peep from her about roe being overturned.

She is swimming in the same waters as Rand Paul. You do the math.

Ok, but why would they pay Krystal fucking Ball, of all people?

Also, speaking of small-time commentators, why do people who actually had shows on Russian media and were employed by them for years like Farron Cousins given a total pass? He only stopped his show on russian-funded tv when the Ukraine war started, but I never hear anyone accusing him of being a Russian agent.

Here she is boosting fellow spook Jill Stien

Here’s her twitter but warning: it’s radioactive

Chocked full of propaganda.

Here she is boasting Glen Greenwald

What the fuck is with the spook shit?

R6 Maybe because he's stopped?

And here she is boosting the third party efforts to stop the democratic senate candidate from winning in Nc by jamming in a third party candidate with faulty signatures.

This is no democrat.

The heavy anti-Ukraine stuff is a tell for me.

Here they all are together. One big happy family.

She was on Bill Maher’s show a couple months back & bridled when Maher assumed she wasn’t a liberal. He corrected himself & said she’s not a woke liberal, which she seemed to be ok with.

Yes. Everyone who disagrees with you is either a US government spy, or a Russian spy, or a Chinese spy.

Tell us more about politics, senpai.

Not good enough, r12. He was literally being paid directly by the Russian government right up until earlier this year.

If that's not a problem for you then a hypocrite.

^^^ then YOU ARE a hypocrite

R7 That's JEFF STEIN who's article she's promoting.

They are all on the same payroll. If you can’t see it; give it time. Figure it out for yourself.

There are dozens of Jill Stien links on there so that one is Jeff. Whoops.

There are 20 more on her Twitter propaganda page.

And of course we have Matt Tabbi

She is blaming democrats for roe vs wade on her Twitter. Not a peep about republicans.

I’ve seen enough. She is a spook.

She’s the new Ed Schulz

Farron Cousins was an employee of the Russian government until February 2022, only decided to stop because of Ukraine, and has nothing but glowing praise for RT in his farewell tweets.

He was a LITERAL agent of the government of Russia, broadcasting to an American audience wekk in, week out, for YEARS.

And yet not a single PEEP from the "everyone I disagree with is a Russian agent although I have no proof" crowd on DL.

Amazing, and very telling, hypocrisy.

all the usual suspects are here.

It’s funny how we keep ending up with this same group up to the same stunts. You can see it plain as day now, if not before.

R2, who are those people with such exotic names.

They're just political commentary grifters, r30. Ten-a-penny in America.

There is a 10% chance she is dumb and is being used by those people but I don’t know. There’s a lot of smoke here.

Plus the MSNBC checks dried up and once you get a taste of that kind of money and exposure i guess you’d do anything including selling out your own country.

Ed Schulz did it. Some people just take the money.

Are they Americans though?

I don’t know guys. This whole third party traveling road act is so murky and shady. I don’t trust it.

What they claim and what they do are always so far apart.

Those names sound like the names of the squad’s campaign managers.

Add her to the list.

It’s time for America to clean house of all these propagandist.

Kick them out of the country for espionage.

Spook???

Jill Stein denies being a Russian assets

Are you asking if she’s black? That’s an old, offensive term.

No Rose but she is taking money from foreign governments in order to “lobby” everyday Americans.

Spook? Oh, dear, OP is an idiot.

This is so sad.

I whisked she had stayed true to herself and just waited it out a couple years. She would have been a hit in todays media and had a multi platform deal.

Sometimes holding on to your dignity pays off in the long run. In ways that you don’t always expect.

Who are these shady ass people she is with all the time. Did they kidnap her?

For gods sake Krystal blink twice if you need our help.

Maybe they don’t pay her, maybe they did a psych job on her. The could have flipped her over time.

Krystal, if you need our help, wear Yellow tomorrow.

Any guesses?

Does OP mean spokes, as in, spokesperson? What the hell is a spook?

Spook = Spy. But I don't think this is what spies do. She's just propagandizing on behalf of Russia's interests and probably taking money for it.

The real spies would be the ones who identified her and pay her to do this, if that's what's happening.

Maybe plant is a better word.

No, she just seems like a propagandist. There's an element of covert work and intel gathering to what spies do. Here's the dictionary definition:

"spy - noun

1. One who secretly collects information concerning the enemies of a government or group.

2. One who secretly collects information for a business about one or more of its competitors.

3. One who secretly keeps watch on another or others."

Ok fine she’s a propagandist. But for who?

I have my suspicions about Josh Barro. Maybe that should be another thread.

Something is off with that one.

R52 Who do you think? Whose interest does the stuff she is doing suit?

R53 How so? Full disclosure, I know nothing about him - just went to his twitter feed, had a scroll down some and nothing really stood out as a red flag.

He treads in the “exaggerating democratic flaws while minimizing Republican criminal activity” Joe Rogan camp of less is more.

God forbid I’m wrong but there’s an awful lot of smoke there.

Why are people who are actual leftists who criticize the center-right Democratic party from the left considered spooks, or friends of Putin, or whatever you clowns think? You know you sound like McCarthy-ites from the 50s? I agree with R2. Krystal is not even a real leftie. But when you go after people like Matt Taibbi, who has a lot of integrity, you don't know what you're talking about.

R55 He is originally a Republican though, so I would expect that from him. I don't see any anti-Ukraine or batshit views from him unlike Krystal.

R57 You agree with R2 who has an even more conspirational view that she is on the US government's payroll? I don't buy that one. The US government wouldn't be paying someone to push anti-Ukraine propaganda.

Ball is completely obsessed with Pete Buttigieg and doesn't miss a chance to trash him. I wouldn't be surprised if she was the DL anti-Pete troll.

Somebody has to tell her he's gay and not interested in using her petty pussy.

People are such fanboys and can’t admit when their idols become exposed like Matt Tabbi who is unquestionably pushing a foreign agenda. He is a great example. Stare at his stuff long enough and it will pop out if you’re too dense to see it from space.

Nobody who organically and genuinely expresses their opinions is ever going to line up with a forging government’s taking points exactly every time. When one has a new talking point, the other propagates it.

It’s not rocket science. How can anyone not see this when pointed out so clearly? There is no denying it unless you’re just a total hopeless case. Doomed to believe everything you see.

None of these people will ever have a honest discussion about issues. It’s always propaganda and talking points. Always.

They never ever go off script and never will.

That’s not normal.

Here she is bashing Hillary for no good reason to distract the deplroables from the trump bust.

Not sure that I agree with you , R2, but I remember when she was a group host of an MSNBC show several years ago. At that time I liked her because she was interesting and reasonable. I was completely aghast when I came across her Twitter account. If she is basically manipulating people on social media for pay or other reasons, she is just as much a purveyor of disinformation as those on the right. And despicable as well.

You sure that wasn’t SE Cipp?

I get these two mixed up.
