He has contributed to many websites, including Anti-Empire, Russian Faith, Brownstone Institute, Unlimited Hangout, and Geopolitics &amp; Empire. He worked for Press TV, Russia Insider, and RT before going solo. In this interview, Waggaman discusses his decade-long experiences in Russia, particularly focusing on media, censorship, and political climate. Waggamann touches on Russia's approach to climate change, digital IDs, and CBDCs, while also providing insights into the impact of the Ukraine conflict on both Russian society and broader geopolitics. He concludes by reflecting on the surreal and challenging times but emphasizes finding value in everyday life and personal fulfillment. <\/span><\/pre>\n<ul>\n<li><span
