A new indictment is revealing Russian talking points that one former FBI special agent said look suspiciously similar to Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH).

On Wednesday, the Justice Department announced two employees of Russian state-controlled media funneled nearly $10 million to promoting Russian propaganda, some of which by right-wing influencers.

The promotional materials uncovered in the indictment were talking points for dissemination, which NBC News reporter Ryan Reilly posted on X.

Among the points in the exhibits urges "constant lies of the U.S. political party B administration about the real situation in the country."

Another point urges talking about "constant lies to the voters by U.S. political party B in power." And another claims America is "suffering defeat despite Candidate B efforts. We are being drawn into the war. Our guys will die in Ukraine

The DOJ claims "political party B" is the Democratic Party and Candidate B is presumably Joe Biden.

The second section reads, "Target audience of the campaign." It lists "U.S. political party A voters," and "Candidate A supporters."

"Interesting how the 'Campaign Topics' exactly mirror J.D. Vance’s campaign talking points," said ex-FBI special agent Asha Rangappa on X.
