The Bulwark Daily · Michael Weiss: The Vice President Is Looking Pretty Stupid · 16 Jun 2026 podcast

And I mean, even Trump's, you know,

idiotic sons are investing in Florida-based drone companies that are looking to acquire Ukrainian drone technology.

So, I mean, that's the register that I think the Ukrainians need to use with this administration, and they have.

I mean, this is what the Russians have been doing for a few years now.

Since the war and since international travel has been restricted, rather than send their own operatives into Europe, they are recruiting just...

either organized criminal elements or kids, riffraff, people who are basically what I would call gig terrorists looking to make easy money, in some cases, a thousand pounds or even less.

They connect with a Russian handler on Telegram, and the handler tells them, go and graffiti a wall with swastikas or stars of David.

Go and foment race hatred over here, or in this case, go and firebomb the home of the prime minister of the UK.

Now, the suspects, actually, the people-

I think it was just not very much more than that, actually.

Again, these are just kids in most cases that are looking to make easy money.

So what the Russians are doing is they're recruiting Ukrainians, right, because they want it to look like Ukraine is behind these spate of terrorist attacks.

But really, it's Russians.

And in this instance, the handler was, I think, a 23-year-old kid who's the son of a Russian diplomat.

What was interesting to me, though, and this kind of all my greatest hits come back around.

So this kid studies at Moscow State University's Diplomatic Academy, which is run by their foreign ministry.

The Diplomatic Academy at Moscow State University has a media program run by Rybar.

RYBAR is a sanctioned state media organization that does, among other things, according to the U.S.

government, tries to foment, you know, ethnic tensions, race, hate crimes in the West, all kinds of provocations, sabotage operations.

And two of the instructors in this program on information warfare run by RYBAR, you mentioned the Americans, literally one of the instructors was an SVR illegal instructor.
