Immediately after Ukraine took out two of the five data centers run by the Russian tech giant Yandex, pro-Trump and pro-MAGA posts on American social media sites plummeted. The same happened to posts boosting Germany's far-right AfD. Russia is engaged in MASSIVE election interference.

It’s unsurprising that Trump sold out America by agreeing to purchase Russian diesel fuel The most tawdry aspect of the deal, though, is how cheap it was to buy him He’s giving Putin billions to help fund Russia’s slaughter of innocent Ukrainian civilians for just a paltry few days of fuel

Clarification note about the language here: Though Common Cause is the lead plaintiff, hence the name of the suit, the lawsuit doesn't seek the TRO in their name, but just in the names of a union and its PAC and an individual running for office.
