Now if they would go after congress members who are actively shilling for Russia for money....
Wrong country bro, this is Italy and they'd have to start with their new [Prime minister](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giorgia_Meloni#:~:text=Giorgia Meloni (Italian%3A [ˈdʒordʒa,woman to hold this position.) and her buddies.
Now do the former prez who is very clearly a foreign agent.
Former Prez of Italy?
Leave Jimmy Carter out of this!
Problem with espionage assets is they're hard to catch. I think they're popping out of the woodwork now because Russia is leveraging them too hard as an asset, out of blatant desperation. Once high ranking ones are detected and removed, they're time consuming to replace.
Over the short scales of a single war, they're a finite asset. Just like missiles. Can't be replenished in the quantities that you'd really like to have.
Should have been in front of a firing squad.
yea, 20 years seem very lenient.
