A federal grand jury in Washington, DC has indicted 13 Russian nationals and a Kremlin-linked internet firm on charges that they had meddled in the 2016 presidential election.
The US government said Russian entities began interfering in US political processes, including the 2016 presidential election, as early as 2014, according to a court document.
[...] The charges – which include conspiracy, wire fraud, bank fraud and aggravated identity theft – are the most direct allegations to date of illegal Russian meddling in the election.

Braindead includes travelling to a country in the US sphere of influence. Russian citizens have been rendered to the US from places like Thailand and the Mauritius. More recently there was an incident in Czechia, but I recall there was a bit of resistance there. Looks like there is still a bit of independence left in Eastern Europe.
