Dear Bluesky,
www.thenerve.news is still tiny. We launched it with no dirty money (no money at all, lol!). But we're proving what's possible with a small expert team & no billionaire owners.
We knew the UK press wouldn't understand or properly cover this story, so we did. Thank you for the support!

And UK media are similarly only thinking about Russian influence on UK politics now and not in the period before and soon after the Brexit vote..
While I’m glad lots of people are reacting to the ‘news’ lots of major MAGA accounts on X are based overseas:
1. The X location tool is unreliable
2. There’s been *loads* of reporting that major MAGA accounts were overseas already. Like, nice you noticed now, but people worked *hard* to warn you.
