Episode Notes
Virginia Heffernan talks to writer Molly McKew, who covers Russian influence and info warfare, about the story of a Russian military intelligence unit offering Taliban-connected militants cash bounties to kill U.S. service members in Afghanistan; denial of the story by the Trump administration; the concept of being at war with Russia; and cancel culture.
