The DOJ alleges that Russian operative Alexander Ionov supervised and funded the 2019 St. Petersburg City Council campaign of Aretha Achille Kenyan. Another unindicted co-conspirator, former mayoral candidate Jesse Neville, is also linked to discussions with Ionov regarding the use of "reparations" as a divisive political tool. The hosts compare the FBI's focus on these local Florida groups to the high-profile raid on Donald Trump's residence.

White mayoral candidate Jesse Neville ran in St. Petersburg on a platform of "Unity Through Reparations" alongside the Uhuru movement. His campaign focused on fighting gentrification, real estate developers, and the "corporate elite" controlling City Hall. The hosts analyze his polished, "woke" messaging and its contrast with the African People's Socialist Party he represented.
