Russian Interference in U.S. Immigration Politics
AP suggests that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is interfering in U.S. immigration politics to help block U.S. military aid for Ukraine's war with Russia. The claim is politically skewed and lacks evidence of the scale or impact of Russian influence on American immigration politics.
