Russian Bots Linked To Viral Twitter Attacks On ‘Hateful’ DemsIs this a preview of stepped-up activity before the midterm elections
It what may be an early onslaught of Kremlin-linked Twitter attacks ahead of the U.S. midterm elections, Russia bots appear to be fueling a wave of criticism targeting Democrats over alleged intimidation in political confrontations and a lack of “civility,” according to bot trackers.
Attacks with the hashtag #WalkAway purport to be from a “grassroots” wave of one-time Democrats who have left the party in part because they say they are so incensed by the hateful and divisive behavior of party members. The message is to “walk away” from ugly confrontations, “intolerance” and hate — and from the Democratic Party.
But the hashtag has been connected to Russian bots. It has ranked as the third or fourth most popular Kremlin-linked hashtag for days, according to bot tracking by the Hamilton 68 site run by the bipartisan Alliance for Securing Democracy, which keeps tabs on Russian activity on the American internet.

The Russian bots also spread the word to Clinton voters only (by naming her) how they could vote by text for Hillary. Such a vote is not possible but too many believed it and their votes were never counted.

. I still think if you get duped by that kind of a scheme I don;t want you voting. I know for a fact that if Fox news said it, a large % of trump voters would fall for it and not vote either....so maybe we should plant a story?

July 27, 2016, Trump: "Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing."
Indictment: That evening, Russian operatives targeted Clinton campaign emails "for the first time."
Guccifer 2.0 wrote to a person who was in regular contact with senior members of the presidential campaign
hmmmm.....that sounds like collusion
to quote Biden: "this is a big fucking deal"Post edited by CM189191 on0 -

If this isn't collusion, I don't know what is :So if Trump met Butina at the NRA event, and then at his campaign announcement in June of 2015, he knew *exactly* what he was doing when he called on Butina at "FreedomFest" in July 2015—exactly as other Trump aides suspected (see the Corn and Isikoff book for more on this).
So here's Trump pretending to pick Butina from a crowd randomly in July '15, and pretending not to know her, as he avails himself of her Kremlin-planted question to publicly lay out (with him knowing Putin is watching) his Russia policy *on sanctions*.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Fp1TioaLcg
*Also* interesting is that 3 days before Trump's announcement—and her (it seems) meeting him again—she publishes an essay in The National Interest that could easily serve as a Trump endorsement, given he was the only GOP candidate who fit her vision for U.S.-Russia relations.And when Trump, nine months later, needs a venue to launch his pro-Russia foreign policy—which launch would be preceded by a VIP event which would be attended by Russia's ambassador (certainly a Maria Butina acquaintance)—where does he choose? The HQ of The National Interest.
The whole thread is worth a read, there's much more : https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1019041395175317505.html0
