Kompromat: KGB's Sexual Smears Against Its Political Enemies

How does Russia assassinate its political enemies? Forget direct attacks--those produce martyrs. The savvy KGB agent knows that it is easier and more profitable to assassinate character. And the easiest way to do that is by sexual smear/honey traps/innuendo. The practice is so common that it has its own name---Kompromat.

Do not fall for KGB dirty tricks. When you see Putin and his agents engage in a smear campaign against one of their enemies in the American--like Senator Al Franken, one of Trump's most vocal opponents in the Senate--call it what it is. Kompromat. And then give Putin the finger.

A link about Kompromat and how Putin used it in his climb to power:
