🎙️ INSIDE PUTIN’S RUSSIAN INTELLIGENCE MACHINE AND THEIR BRUTAL TACTICS... with Former CIA Station Chief Sean Wiswesser and @JordanHarbinger. We discussed a lot in 2 hours...One of the most important points we discussed: ⚠️ “The existential, most insidious threat to our democracy now is from information warfare. What was done before with human-enabled operations (like in 2016 in the U.S. and Brexit both) is now increasingly done through cognitive warfare.” The result--amplification-- 10k or even 50,000 times more than ten years ago...that is the reality of our adversaries attacking us with COG-AI. We get into the SVR, FSB and GRU, espionage and illegals, corruption inside the system, assassinations and sabotage, information warfare, hybrid operations—and how Moscow has adapted old Soviet active-measures concepts for the digital age. ⚠️We talk Russian HYBRID escalation like is all over Europe's headlines now...I make the point: "What would Ronald Reagan have done if the GRU put parcel bombs on planes as TEST runs to the U.S., like they did in 2024...and on a real plane that blew-up for our allies, Lithuania...missiles would be flying at the USSR's proxies..." BUT today--nothing. That is EMPTY DETERRENCE. If you want an insider’s look at the tradecraft, culture and mindset behind Putin’s intelligence services, I hope you’ll check out the full conversation below. It was an honor.
