From the Washington Post, with TTLA emphasis added:
"FBI agents arrested 10 people on charges that they spent years in the United States as spies for Russia, taking on fake identities and trying to ferret out intelligence about U.S. policy and secrets by making connections to think tanks and government officials, the Justice Department said Monday."
Politico has the .pdfs of the related legal documents, which include this:
"7. The FBI's investigation has revealed that a network of illegals (the "Illegals") is now living and operating in the United States in the service of one primary, long-term goal: to become sufficiently "Americanized" such that they can gather information about the United States for Russia, and can successfully recruit sources who are in, or are able to infiltrate, United States policy-making circles."
And from D.C., seemed like just four days ago that Presidents Obama and Medvedev were strolling. Here, a Carnegie Endowment for International Peace expert on PBS.And from the internets, No Way Out, a lousy `80s flick that helped a new generation ponder the notion
of sleeper spies.
