Maria Butina

Maria Butina is a Russian gun right’s activist and libertarian. Butina headed an organization which aimed to secure a guaranteed constitutional right to keep and bear arms modeled on the U.S. Second Amendment to protect Russian citizens' after the 70 year enslavement of the Russian people by far left progressives of the Soviet Union. Butina became the target of anti-Second Amendment globalists, advocates of the war on sovereignty and the corrupt Obama intelligence community during Deep State coup plot.

U.S. intelligence had Butina on its radar by spring 2015, in part because she left an overt trail of open-source intelligence documenting her contacts with major conservative figures at the Conservative Political Action Conference, the National Rifle Association and the libertarian Freedom Fest, starting in 2013.

Despite the government’s efforts to paint Butina as a Russian spy attempting to infiltrate Republican circles she was never investigated by the Mueller Team. Further, the FBI did nothing to stop Butina from meeting with high level Republican and conservative figures. The FBI didn’t warn those conservative figures she had made contact with, even though the FBI had Butina under surveillance. Unlike an associate of Russian operative Anna Chapman who mad contact with a major Democratic party donor close to Hillary Clinton, the FBI acted swiftly to make arrest.

In 2018, Butina pleaded guilty to a FARA Act violation. Prosecutors had to walk back accusations they made during the trial that she was a Russian spy using sex as a tool to gain influence and access. The guilty plea was not an admission that Butina was a Russian spy or involved in espionage but a failure to register as a Russian citizen working on behalf of her country.

Butina was sentenced to Florida’s FCI Tallahassee minimum security prison until Oct. 25, 2019.
