I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
Quote: Russia’s disinformation campaign during the 2016 presidential election relied heavily on stories produced by major American news sources to shape the online political debate, according to an analysis published Thursday... “The Kremlin, they don’t need to create a false narrative. It’s already there,” he said. “You’re just taking a narrative and elevating it.”

Because there they were- producing stories for Russia's "disinformation campaign"! Maybe there was "collusion" between Putin and the MSM?? I think we should get Mueller to investigate ALL of the contacts between Russia and the MSM! I'll bet there are a lot!

Quote: CIA director John Brennan lied to you and to the Senate. Fire him 2014 As reports emerged Thursday that an internal investigation by the Central Intelligence Agency’s inspector general found that the CIA “improperly” spied on US Senate staffers when researching the CIA’s dark history of torture, it was hard to conclude anything but the obvious: John Brennan blatantly lied to the American public. Again. “The facts will come out,” Brennan told NBC News in March after Senator Dianne Feinstein issued a blistering condemnation of the CIA on the Senate floor, accusing his agency of hacking into the computers used by her intelligence committee’s staffers. “Let me assure you the CIA was in no way spying on [the committee] or the Senate,” he said.
Quote:After the CIA inspector general’s report completely contradicted Brennan’s statements, it now appears Brennan was forced to privately apologize to intelligence committee chairs in a “tense” meeting earlier this week. Other Senators on Thursday pushed for Brennan to publicly apologize and called for an independent investigation. Sen. Ron Wyden said it well: @CIA broke into Senate computer files. Then tried to have Senate staff prosecuted. Absolutely unacceptable in a democracy.

Quote:Originally posted by THG: Can anyone say russian troll, propaganda and alternative facts? Will sig ever stop pushing Putins agenda. Yeah I know. Once a russian troll always a russian troll. The obvious theme in these threads is that sig, jack, kiki and jsf, would have us believe America and it's allies, all our combined intelligence agencies, the FBI, our judicial system, the Justice Department, all our judges and DA's, the media in America and that of our allies are lying to us. That Alex Jones is right. That Qnon is right. That's just sick. This thinking serves only those of us who deal with mental heath issues or see themselves as victims. Have you seen Trumps rallies? He plays the victim as he sells this shit. All the while telling his fellow victims, don't believe what you see and hear because it's all fake. Let me say that again. Trump is telling his supports to ignore what they see and hear and only believe what he tells them. Him saying that is a provable fact. Sad, very sad. By the way, JAYNEZTOWN shows up whenever comrade sig wants to go more negative and extreem. She doesn't want anyone to know it's her. T

The analysis by Columbia University social media researcher Jonathan Albright of more than 36,000 tweets sent by Russian accounts showed that obscure or foreign news sources played a comparatively minor role, suggesting that the discussion of “fake news” during the campaign has been somewhat miscast. Albright’s research, which he said is the most extensive to date on the news links that Russians used to manipulate the American political conversation on Twitter, bolsters observations by other analysts. Clinton Watts, a former FBI agent and disinformation expert from the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia, said that by linking to popular news sources, the Russians enhanced the credibility of their Twitter accounts, making it easier to manipulate audiences. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/russia-used-mainstream-media-to-manipulate-american-voters/2018/02/15/85f7914e-11a7-11e8-9065-e55346f6de81_story.html?utm_term=.6d0274c0e6aa]
