Kamil Krzaczynski/Reuters Sarah Palin promises to keep an eye on Russia.

With Russia now accused of interfering in the U.S. election, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin made a crack that recalls one of her most famous lines from the 2008 campaign, when she was the Republican vice presidential nominee.

Palin tweeted on Sunday:

Russia's getting out of hand? So says the defeated. Not to worry... remember I can keep an eye on them from here. https://t.co/jQBCDV5O3W — Sarah Palin (@SarahPalinUSA) December 12, 2016

Asked in 2008 about her insight into Russia as governor of the state closest to the nation, Palin said:

“They’re our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”

The comment was seized on by Tina Fey, who played Palin on “Saturday Night Live.”

“I can see Russia from my house,” Fey, as Palin, said ― a comment that since has been misattributed to Palin herself.
