    It's not completely mind-boggling. He spoke out against russian oligarchy in general, saying something like, "If I think about problems, I am coming from a positive place, I want to change something, to have people live better. I don't want to see retirees begging."

    He's also not being accused by a woman. His former coach is the one accusing him of assaulting a woman in 2011, and he came right out and said he only brought it up because he didn't like Panarin speaking out against the Russian government.

    It's a serious accusation and needs to be treated as such but it's not open and shut either. It also has nothing to do with troll farms though so I don't know what the fuck Olberman is talking about.
