30 FBI Agents?

I doubt all of them could even fit in a NY City apartment.

“Elena Branson, 61, who holds dual U.S. and Russian citizenship”
....
It’s time to end or dual citizenship. No one can have allegiance to two separate countries. When a foreign national becomes an American citizen that person swears allegiance to the United States of America and forswears any allegiance to the previous country. When did all of this dual citizenship become acceptable?

"An accused Russian spy who worked as a merchant banker in New York City called convicted spy Maria Butina after 30 FBI agents showed up at her apartment with a battering ram. Elena Branson, 61, who holds dual U.S. and Russian citizenship, was accused of running a 'Russian propaganda center' in New York and communicating directly with President Vladimir Putin."

I'm no lawyer, but we are not officially at war with Russia, and is it a crime to call Vladimir Putin and dispense information reflecting the Russian point of view? Is it a crime to call Butina? And 30 FBI agents? Don't they reserve that kind of show of force for January 6th trespassers?

Was Fang Fang ever arrested by US agents? I think she was arrested in Hong Kong, but what the the US DOJ give her a pass? She was obviously a spy.

...called convicted spy Maria Butina

Remember, Butina is an FBI informant who tried to setup then candidate Trump during a meeting with him.

There are no 61 year-old merchant bankers.

Hardly any over 45.

'Russian spy' merchant banker, 61, fled the US after 30 FBI agents showed up at her Manhattan apartment with a battering ram...

I'm certainly relieved that the FBI could spare so many agents from their investigation of President Trump.

I thought that kind of demonstration of power was reserved for conservatives and Trump supporters.

The FBI must have been very disappointed. Was any dog killed in the process? Was CNN already there with their camera trucks and reporters? Did they come at 4 am to ensure she was in her nighty? Was a gun recovered as in arsenal?
