    They knew the people paying them worked from a Russian timezone, they actually put it in an email.

      Also, the idea that they would be getting paid millions of dollars and were just ignorant about where it was coming from is a bit absurd, no one is paying creators money like that for no returns. They didn’t have any call to actions, no affiliate links, nothing. So there’s no way these large content creators didn’t know that that money was funny

        The law only cares if they were lobbying for a foreign country. If it was China, India or Australia paying the bill, they would still be breaking the law.

        If it isn’t an American timezone, that should say enough how it are foreign affairs that are influencing the election.
