Mueller indicts Russian nationals and businesses for 2016 election interference via an organized “troll farm” led by the Internet Research Agency in St. Petersburg. About 200 to 300 workers, 80 focused on the U.S., created fake American social media accounts to sway opinion, with operations started in 2014 and aimed at sowing discord and promoting pro Russian narratives.
