Journalist Matt Taibbi says that the Russiagate story will not die and wonders how much meat is on the bone.

The U.S. Justice Department has once more accused Russia of trying to influence American elections.

"The Russiagate story will persist," investigative journalist Matt Taibbi stated on "The Story," Thursday.

"The story refuses to end, evoking memories of the 'Friday the 13th' films. Just as Jason would emerge from Crystal Lake despite being killed multiple times in each sequel, this story persists."

On Wednesday, the Biden administration accused Russia of attempting to influence the 2024 U.S. presidential election by targeting American voters through state-run media and other online platforms as part of a campaign called "doppelganger."

Taibbi stated that a criminal case exists, but the extent of the evidence in the case is yet to be determined.

"Merrick Garland's statement in the press conference differed from the opinions of the commentators you presented. He stated that the content being supported was aligned with Russia's interest in exacerbating U.S. internal divisions, but not necessarily promoting Donald Trump. The complexity of the story makes it difficult to determine who was supporting whom."

On Wednesday, the Justice Department announced that it is seizing 32 websites linked to the Russian government and used to spread disinformation. Additionally, the Justice, State, and Treasury departments indicted two employees at Russian state-controlled outlet RT.

The accusation stated that RT, through a $10 million scheme, deceived US-based influencers into promoting content that was advantageous to the Russian government, using a Tennessee-based company known as Tenet Media.

The Foreign Agents Registration Act and money laundering were allegedly violated by RT in a conspiracy.

Taibbi stated that he has witnessed numerous variations of the same theme, which often fall short of expectations or are deceitful, as he discovered with the Hamilton 68 site in the Twitter files and the Steele dossier, which pertain to allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

RT responded to the allegations and shared their reaction with Planet Chronicle Digital, stating, "We had several reactions, but we couldn't choose one, so here they are."

"2016 is calling for its clichés to return," along with other statements such as "Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, and RT's interference in U.S. elections," "We must find a way to earn our Kremlin paycheck," and "Secretary Clinton is disappointed that it's not because of her."

Garland assured David Spunt of Planet Chronicle that the situation was serious and that RT's response was not amusing in the United States.

Garland stated, "This is deadly serious, and we will handle it appropriately."

Wray was questioned by Spunt about how he would respond to other U.S. adversaries attempting to influence American elections.

"As long as adversaries continue to attempt to influence and disrupt our society and democratic processes, they will encounter the FBI."

The DOJ's decision to prevent Russian interference in the upcoming election has sparked doubts among many Republicans.

Talibbi stated that the purpose of this story as a propaganda tool is directly aimed at Donald Trump, as expressed by top lawmakers and experts.

"The story would not be in the news if it didn't have a Donald Trump angle to it."
