Building upon our thread that we started earlier in the wk ... we have done further analysis on the hashtags that coalesced at the end of January & into the beginning of February #demexit, #boohillary, #walkaway & #dncrigging. Walkway is a pro-MAGA product
As I mentioned #Walkaway long ago got turned into an enduring pro-MAGA product so we left that out for this. We were among the first groups to out this inorganic campaign in 2018. This chart shows participation of the Kremlin-aligned #hamilton68 and the Domestic #the200 groups 
As I stated in the previous thread on Feb 1st the start (#boohillary) or reoccurrence of #demexit & #dncrigging started organically mostly here in the US. However other suspect accnts did participate with additional tweets, retweets and likes (which we currently don't measure)
The pro-MAGA & #qanon account @surfermom77 outed the whistleblower by name in a tweet & then President Trump preceded to retweet the surfermom77 tweet on Saturday ... effectively further outing the whistleblower to his 68 million followers bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
The surfermom77 account has morphed & repackaged itself numerous times & the @mikefarb1 thread does a good job documenting that. Although not in our #Hamilton68 or #the200 lists, we will document a number of other interesting things about this surfer mom.
One small comment about @mikefarb1 thread, we need 2b careful about interchanging GRU accounts with IRA trolls. They r & function very differently. GRU typically don't run high volume, influential social media accounts. The paid grunts do that (IRA trolls)
Back in late August of this yr the account @ArizonaKayte was suspended by Twitter. I have no idea why ... however this account was of note given it was one of the top most influential accounts within the Domestic pro-MAGA troll group called the #Mighty200 or also called #the200
It was found that the account @ArizonaKayte from #the200 was in the top 6 most retweeted by the primary dataset of alt-right accounts (top 57393 users) h/t @r0zetta from F-secure #infosec #disinfo #magatrolls #osint
The account @ArizonaKayte was commonly found in large Trump Train follow back tweets and still appears even months after its suspension. See the screenshot on the right from 2 days ago #infosec #disinfo #magatrolls #osint

“As with past reports, this report provides statistics and explanations on how we use key authorities.
Because it is important to understand these statistics in a broader context, we strive to explain that context clearly, which is challenging given the complexities of the authorities and the classified nature of these topics.

QUESTION: Thank you. Did you know, did the United States Government know this uprising was coming?
SECRETARY POMPEO: I don’t want to get into precisely what we knew, but we’ve had good information all along as we’ve been working with the Venezuelan people, and Juan Guaido, and the National Assembly to restore democracy inside of Venezuela.
GREAT NEWS!

“To me this is the most significant case we’ve prosecuted since I became U.S. Attorney,” stated U.S. Attorney Bash. “The Almaguers were serial child abusers.
They abused 25 children that we know about—children from the neighborhood, children from church, children they babysat. The youngest victim was an infant.

QUESTION: Okay. Well, the U.S. Government has said that the safety crisis – the safety crisis in its southern border is caused by criminal bands, by drug dealers. So do you think that (inaudible) those migrant kids from their parents in order to fight that crisis?
SECRETARY POMPEO: We’re going to stop the flow across our southern border, period, full stop. President Trump’s made that – every country, every country, has the right to determine who comes into their country, and we have to stop the flow of drugs,

"Jake, that’s the liberal theory for sure. Let’s just go back to basic reality; it’s what we try and do in the Trump administration. Hundreds of millions of dollars spent in Honduras, in Guatemala, in El Salvador, and you see the results. ..."
"...You see the results yesterday, you saw them last week, you see people fleeing those nations. ..."
We did an interesting analysis a few days ago where we compared the Twitter wordclouds between our #Hamilton68 subset of trolls focused on US politics to that of the group of mostly American activists called #the200". They were featured here in politico politico.com/story/2019/02/…
First the domestic subset of our Russian influencer #Hamilton68 accts. Jussie Smollett featured more prominently which makes sense as provoking racial division has been a successful core strategy since 2016. #walkaway & #creepypornlawyer were also more prominent --#disinfo #osint
Over the same period of time a wordcloud was generated 4 #the200 group of accnts. Actually now roughly 180 due 2 Twitter suspensions. With the exception of the hashtags in red like #buildthewall & #aag which is the call sign 4 one of the accnts, there was overlap with #hamilton68
So finally got to the newest #Hamilton68 wordclouds. A few interesting things to note. First up the subset of #hamilton68 twitter troll accounts focused on US politics. This is 62k tweets from between Feb 27th through Mar 2nd. #infosec #disinfo #osint #psyops
These #Hamilton68 accounts were promoting #cpac2019, not surprisingly the controversy surrounding #IlhanOmar and a couple interesting smaller new hashtags #the200 and #themighty200 that I will discuss later in the thread. Also of note is the minimal attention to Tulsi Gabbard.
Looking at the #Hamilton68 subset of accounts focused on Russian geopolitics the conflict in Venezuela (#HandsOffVenezuela) was featured and new was the conflict between India and Pakistan. The #integrityinitiative continued to be a focus and again Tulsi was not that prominent
The hashtag duo of #The200 and #TheMighty200 has been making the rounds the last few days. We downloaded all tweets containing either hashtag, yielding 35325 tweets from 14139 accounts since the morning of 2/22.

Where did #The200/#TheMighty200 start and why? The early traffic appears to be a reaction to a study of Twitter activity surrounding #VoterFraud, focused on 200 suspect accounts. The study explicitly clarifies that the accounts are not being labeled "bots", btw.
