American news organizations resisted the pressure, but—in a 2019 re-play of “Russia, if you’re listening”—Kremlin-controlled state media promptly jumped on it.
As if on cue, the Kremlin-controlled heavy hitters—TASS, RT, Rossiya-1—disseminated the same information. But unlike Rand Paul, one of the Russian state media outlets didn’t seem to find the source—Real Clear Investigations—to be particularly impressive, and claimed falsely that the material was published originally by The Washington Post.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a Russian client whose regime teetered on the brink of collapse only to be saved definitively by Trump’s chaotic approach to the Middle East, recently said that “President Trump is the best type of president for a foe.” The Russians heartily agree. The Trump presidency has been wildly successful for Russia, which is eagerly stepping into every vacuum created by the retreat of the United States on the world stage.

I think a lot of it has to do with the nature of The Wizard of Oz's curtain as an allegory. As long as their is bickering going on around the kingdom, nobody has any attention to pay towards finding out who it really is behind the curtain. Due to being distracted by more immediately important things. Then when those things are taken care of, it's time to create a big scary distraction that inspires fear.

They are. In his transcript, Bill Taylor admits his source is NYT. Page 299

I heard that. The Dems' star witness is, by his own admission, just regurgitating a hit piece from the Times.
