It's far worse than imagined.
They spent $33 million dollars to spread that disinformation.
There was even a fake video circulating that showed Massie with Rep AOC and Rep Omar getting out of a car together to go into a hotel for a three way affair that was 100% fake, Al generated, but some people believed it.

There are multiple billionaires involved in this and they control almost all forms of mass communication. They control almost all TV stations, radio stations, social media and cable companies and movie production.

If you are not worried, you should be.
