Russia's ambassador to Washington warns that Americans will be under TOTAL CENSORSHIP as Election Day approaches
Anatoly Antonov, Russia's ambassador to Washington,
says that the only people in the United States who still have freedom of speech under the First Amendment are those who express pro-establishment views – all others are now being subjected to a "political inquisition," he warns.
Antonov's statements came after the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) conducted a raid on the home of Russia-born U.S. political analyst and author Dimitri Simes in Virginia. Simes is a vocal critic of Joe Biden who has been co-hosting a geopolitical talk show on Russia's
Channel 1 since 2018.
The Simes raid was part of a political "witch hunt," according to Antonov, who warned on Telegram that things will likely get much worse the closer we get to the November 5 election.
"Hundreds of people are declared undesirable just because they dare to contradict the policies of the administration," Antonov wrote. "They are forbidden from having their own point of view" as government agents are "breaking into homes, performing searches and seizing documents."

U.S. in 2024 resembles "dark times of McCarthyism," Antonov warns
What Americans now face at the hands of their police state in 2024 is similar to the "dark times of McCarthyism," Antonov further said, McCarthyism referring to the period from 1950 through 1954 when then-Sen. Joseph McCarthy lodged an aggressive campaign to root out all alleged communists from U.S. government.
"The local ruling circles have decisively embarked on the path of total censorship," he contends.
"Freedom of speech in modern America is sacred only if this speech is pro-American. All dissidents are subject to political inquisition, especially when it comes to those who fight against one-sided and biased views on Russia."
When it comes to matters of freedom and democracy, the Washington, D.C., power structure engages in blatant double standards. The establishment routinely "lecture[s] the world on democratic values and human rights," Antonov says, even as it "easily" steamrolls Americans' First Amendment rights here at home.
A naturalized U.S. citizen who immigrated to America from the Soviet Union in 1973, Simes served as an aid to President Richard Nixon. He was also the publisher and CEO of
National Interest magazine, which embraces a realist approach to geopolitics and international relations.
When so-called "Russiagate" was reaching a fever pitch, Simes was among those investigated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller as a suspected contact of Donald Trump and the Russian government.
"The report by Muller in 2019, which failed to find any evidence of collusion between Moscow and Trump's 2016 campaign, also vindicated Simes,"
RT reports.
A week before the FBI raided Simes' home, agents raided the home of former U.S. marine and United Nations (UN) weapons inspector Scott Ritter in New York. Now a journalist and commentator, Ritter commented that U.S. authorities seem to be "primarily concerned" with his "relationship" with Russian media outlets
RT and
Sputnik.
"
Democracy and free speech dying is just another symptom of a collapsing empire," one commenter wrote about the continued demise of the U.S. police state.
"They censor everything so that no one can learn the truth," wrote another.
"A methodology of basically pushing reverse kabbalist psychology onto unsuspecting victims has been moved to the forefront of most western nations agendas. Almost all legislation, education, etc. is pushed out to the masses in inverted wording that may sound good to the masses but is extremely aligned with at least these 11 Point Plan of the Frankfurt school."
As expected, the 2024 election cycle is proving to be a clown circus. Find out more at
