Meet the Moscow Mouthpiece Married to a Racist Alt-Right Boss
She spreads the words of Russias most virulent propagandist. Hes a leading racist hate-monger. Nina Kouprianova and Richard Spencer are a very different kind of power couple.

Nina Kouprianova is not a member of the racist alt-right. At least, thats what shell say when you ask her. I am not a member of any movement, Kouprianova, who was born in the Soviet Union, recently told The Daily Beast via email. She added that she was sympathetic toward movements that challenge the dominant and globally oriented post-Liberal ideology, but white nationalismthat fracturing of the U.S., resulting in a white ethno-state that would salve the wounds of American racistsis not for her.
Still, the track record, both personally and professionally, of Kouprianovawho also goes by the nom de plume Nina Byzantinacasts a pall over her denials. This is, after all, a woman who elected to marry Richard Spencer, the longtime lodestar of American white nationalism and progenitor of the term alt-right. While the two are currently separatedas Spencer told The Washington Post, his recent work has taken a toll on their relationshipKouprianova hasnt publicly distanced herself from the views of her husband, a man who has kept neo-Nazis enthralled with his views and who has expressed continued admiration for Vladimir Putin.
Yeah, nothing at all suspicious here...
I'll give them credit, they certainly are quite comprehensive in their efforts to cause chaos and subvert America.
