I called this! I wish I would have posted about it somewhere, but I've been saying this for a while. I saw an article talking about "kompromat" as an old KGB tactic a while back, and this British Soviet dissident whose trial had been put on hold until January 19th. I can't explain myself coherently on how I knew lol, which is why I didn't post about it, but I totally saw this coming from a mile away.
