Because Trump is an idiot and had these people in his circle. Anna Paulina Luna is the most obvious foreign asset of all time, yet nothing has happened to her, and nothing will. Trump's big ally in Europe is Obran, who's compromised, about to lose an election by a big margin, and Trump still backs him and has even sent Vance over to back him some more. Tulsi Gabbard has to be put out to pasture/Hawaii beach every time the US plans anything with regards to foreign policy because she's so unreliable. Yes the US is looking the other way, because they've allowed these imbeciles to gain power and influence. The only guys that face pushback by the Feds are people like Jackson Hinkle because of their pretend left wing views and trips to Yemen.
Again this just sounds like liberal histrionics about Russia, Russia, Russia. Trump connection this, Mueller that.
Trump is corrupt but he's not an asset. People around him are probably just corrupt weirdos who love this "trad" image Russia is selling and are happy to take free plane tickets, meals, etc to go there and schmooze on someone else's dime while Putin and the Russians try desperately to parlay this into something good. BUT it still hasn't done jack shit for helping Russia in the war against Ukraine, in re-opening trade with Europe, etc so they're running up against a very hard wall in the limits of what good will free dinners, hotels, and hookers will give them when the subjects are just influencers at the end of the day. Former NYC mayor got done for some very minor corruption with an ALLY of the US and all the evidence we've ever seen says exactly one "nation" on earth is allowed to do that kind of stuff within the US and that's the zionist entity which is just an extension of the US anyways.
It is just fantastically reaching conspiracy thinking I'm sorry but it is. And it has its roots in liberal Russia-gate fearmongering which is pushed by western intelligence to justify crackdowns, increased budgets, narrative control of online spaces, etc, etc.
Reactionary grifters have been saying all kinds of things for DECADES. Rush Limbaugh back in the 90s called cops or highway patrol "jackbooted thugs" in one of his diatribes. Why? It sells. It needs nothing more than that and without solid evidence it's just more nat-sec birthed conspiracy brain that needs to be buried because spreading it only serves the imperial spy machine's narrative of infiltration and wolves in the fold that enables them to push through sweeping crackdowns and crushing of alternative opinions and frame it as merely "combating foreign influence" and get the public nodding along because "it is known".
So even if it were true and I want to be clear I don't think it is, it wouldn't serve us to go in with the CIA/FBI/nat-sec-state on that line. Tucker is on Trump's shit-list now anyways. They won't be able to convict him of anything but if he was guilty they would be able to easily and have no reason not to now.
