Overview

  • Reporting links the X accounts Defiant L's and Resist the Mainstream to Rumen Naumovski through a Florida‑registered company, Raww Digital LLC.
  • A 2024 copyright lawsuit includes filings in which Naumovski claims 100% ownership of Raww Digital, which operates the two accounts.
  • Company records show Raww Digital was formed in 2021 with Naumovski listed in Veles, North Macedonia, then amended to list a St. Petersburg, Florida registered agent’s address as its principal location.
  • FEC entries list a more than $3,000 contribution from Naumovski to a 2022 congressional campaign made from the Florida address and tied to Raww Digital, and the campaign later returned the money.
  • The accounts have been amplified by Republican lawmakers and Elon Musk to large audiences; Naumovski has said he has never visited the U.S. and did not know the donation was prohibited, and no federal enforcement action has been announced.
