Day after day the evidence of criminal activity by Trump and his close associates to aid the Russian theft of the 2016 Residential election on Trump’s behalf continues to grow. Yesterday a former CIA Director said that Russians could not have micro targeted their propaganda the way they did without American assistance. Now we learn that close Trump associates assisted in circulating tweets from Russian troll farms.
Multiple members of Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, including Donald Trump Jr., campaign manager Kellyanne Conway and other staffers circulated tweets by professional trolls on the payroll of the Russian government, according to a startling new report from the Daily Beast.
According to the Daily Beast:
“The Twitter account @Ten_GOP, which called itself the ‘Unofficial Twitter account of Tennessee Republicans,’ was operated from the Kremlin-backed ‘Russian troll farm,’ or Internet Research Agency, a source familiar with the account confirmed.”
The Russian-backed organization responsible for the tweets engaged in a widespread influence campaign that included popular social media platforms Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram.
Twitter refused to comment on the revelations, citing “privacy and security reasons.”
This is the first tangible evidence presented to the public that members of the Trump campaign team promoted Russian propaganda materials in the course of the election. Some of these campaign members, including Conway and the president’s son, are influential within the Trump administration… [emphasis added]

It is imperative that the US take all necessary steps to safeguard our 2018 elections, so we can remove these criminals from office.

Unreal !!!
They were all in on this, from HappyGurl, his campaign people on to the ID who is now in office.
I am thinking that Mueller has knowledge of this damning info, and will subpoena the Twitter account too.
I’ll bet he hates that picture. But I do too. What I hate is that it shows him in a military uniform (albeit not ours). Even an enemy uniform gives him too much credit. He is way too coewardly to wear that uniform, or any other.
I am waiting for him to remind everyone that he has a “purple heart” as proof of service to his country doing who knows what. He probably forgets on purpose that it belonged to another who, in an act of unbridled stupidity, gave his own purple heart to Drumpf.
Perhaps I should only use his SS uniform.
The more we can annoy the Orange Ogre, the better. Best way to annoy him is to elect real Progressives – not just Democrats – to local and state offices as well as national ones. Make sure you are registered to vote, make sure your progressive kith and kin are registered, help out at a voter registration drive, offer to help people get to the polls, do your homework on the candidates, and VOTE! This could be our last chance to turn this country around by legal and peaceful means.
Amen!
What Freya said!
Pat’s “Unreal,”is so spot on! So much for the asses of Faux News and their campaign to convince their fool viewers that the “Media” is on the wrong path, as it pursues the “Russian issue!” Not, however, that their well conditioned viewers will not buy their BS!
By now many Democrats and Progressives must feel saturated with all the proof that Drumpf and his close associates were dumb extensions of Russia’s infiltration in the election. But Republicans have a deviant bowl system and everything that could possibly taint the GOP or their president passes right through them without leaving a mark. None of it is processed, none. And as long as they don’t, nothing will change and they will not rid themselves of the man who is now openly ridiculing them. Even that is swallowed and not processed.
So the only thing for it is what Freya and many others call us out on: make sure everyone VOTES and make sure everyone votes PROGRESSIVE and get rid of those Republicans with their defective bowl systems.
Meanwhile, Putin thinks the American people should show his puppet more respect.
Welcome Richard.
If the US doesn’t take some kind of ACTION NOW, we are in for ANOTHER stolen election! We have to START yesterday!!!
Thanks for the heads up, TC. Congrats on your win last week!
TYVM!
I’m not sure who’s done more damage to the US — Drumpf or the Russians? . . . or are they almost one in the same? Certainly John Brennan, who has served under both Republican and Democratic presidents, is very believable when he says it is highly “implausible” that the Russians did not have help from some Americans.
It is imperative that the Republicans, every last treasonous one be ousted. I say ‘treasonous’ because to walk in lockstep with the party without concern for the welfare of the people, is to have total disregard to those they supposedly represent.
To me, it sounds suspiciously like the old Soviet Union where if one did not support the communist party, one was an enemy of the people and either shipped off to the gulag or killed without fanfare.
There is another interesting article in Alternet that comments on the 2018 midterms.
That is indeed grim. But I have already said that we need a wave election with massive turnout to win.
Thanks all! TGIF Hugs!
