A writer web page for Lauren Chen is actually no more readily available on the page for far-right activist Charlie Kirk's institution, Switching Aspect United States. Along with her partner, Chen co-founded a company, Tenet Media, that's at the heart of the DOJ charge. YouTube removed many Tenet Media channels as well as one industry press reporter pointed out the outlet has "finished" after the feds affirmed Chen as well as her husband purposefully used it to direct numerous bucks coming from Russian officials to conservative material producers that were paid for to press far-right and also pro-Kremlin chatting points.
